Next Hot Honda hatch
Ok.. so you seen the 2006 Honda civic Si concept.
Now this is what it will Really look like.
You seen it here first.....
What's more the Type R gets a complete makeover, with a dramatically-styled body kit and lowered back end, plus new 17 inch wheels (with 18 inch an option).
According to Auto Express the car is based on the next-generation Civic, the Type R produces a startling 186 kW, while a lower-powered - but still quick - Type S version will also be offered, in both 3-door and 5-door.
The Type S is expected to produce 147 kW, enough to match Volkswagen's upcoming Golf GTI and the Opel Astra GSi turbo.
The new cars will be shown at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September .

I dunno why you guys are hatin so bad... I love the look of it, I just think the scale is too large. I mean if the EP is the size it is... that would make this car about the size of a Pacifica 
hahaha So yeah... if it magically shrunk, and the front end cleaned up a lil, it would be so hot!! what I need is a car about the size of an EG hatch.

Where did you guys find out that the H/B won't make it to North America? I mean is there anything official yet?
As for the Jazz, my buddy who works at Honda told me a few weeks ago that we'll get the Jazz here in Canada this year. Apparently this is Honda's way to take on the Matrix H/B.
