If you're looking for practicality, get a civic.

ive been looking at civics for a long time.. We have NONE up here and I dont trust buying ANY car from Minneapolis / Saint Paul, I know how ppl drive down there, especially sporty type cars

i was looking at the Civic EXs.. The SI is temping but I keep have to tell myself, Practical.. If I bought a new civic, its going to be a 2012 because it will be the new 9th generation body style.. And a loaded EX can go for about 18-19K, BUt the Optima I linked above gets 33 mpg and looks to be the best of both worlds

I was checking out a few Honda/Civic forums, and from what they have seen with spy pics ( which sometimes means nothing ) Is that the new one is alot like the old, but a bit wider and longer, with the spoiler set back a little farther, with a much better looking and quality interior..

One thing ppl are still complaining about is the fact that the Si is no longer the Compact powerhouse it was 5 yrs ago when the 8th gens came out, and they may still use the same K20 motor thats in the current Si, in the new one..
