I actually got my pass from Classic Honda in Brampton to attend one of these meetings this week. I'm going for sure.

took the 06 sedan out for a test drive today.

Cool dash, really short hood, big trunk, pretty smooth and quiet.

Pretty pricey with any decent options, the finance and lease rates are unknown at this time.

The handling is good, I didn't notice any significant body roll, although when slaloming around a bit, i did notice a little premature lean in on the front

I just got back. It was pretty decent. They had this ghey show with some guy and a chick yapping about thre Civic, Accord and Pilot.

In the service bays though, they had about 8 Civics, a few bikes, Accords, Pilots, etc. The Civic was really very nice. I really like the new interior. It felt alot more upscale inside and the 2 tier dash is very easy to see. The wheel tilts and telescopes, the seat goes back pretty far and it's height adjustable. Very nice factory CD/MP3 system with a sub in the back deck and 350 watts. The seats were covered in this seude like material and none of the plastic felt cheap. $22 for the EX and its pretty well loaded and the $27 for the Si. I made an appointment for a EX test drive next week.

I never thought I would say this, but I would take a 06 civic coupe with hbp kit (spelling??) over my car which I love so much, it just looks amazing.

I went yesterday to Classic Honda in Brampton and saw the new Civic. I love everything about it, interior, exterior, dash especially. Took one EX 4DR for a 20 minute test drive both on the streets and on the highway and I have to say that I'm impressed. The only thing I disliked was the choice of colours and the fact that there are no options to get a navigation system, not even in the upscale EX.

We do get short changed on the interior and exterior colors unlike the US that has very many. The Navi I don't really care about anyway. How often do yo ureally not know where you are going anyway? I wish some of the HFP parts were available here.
