Driving is Fun Again

Bianchi Honda finally has its first 2012 Honda Civic Si on the lot! This Si has been the most anticipated in its history for performance and style. We thought we would compare some of the differences between the 8th generation Si and the 9th generation Si to see what makes the new one so desirable.

Holly Wurst, one of our Sales Consultants at Bianchi Honda, is a proud owner of a 2011 Honda Civic Si and could not help but share some information on her car as well as what she thinks of the new 2012 model.

"It's awesome!" says Holly, "My Si is a super fun car to drive, and just like any other Honda, very reliable." As a devoted follower, Holly will be considering the new Si as a replacement for her 2011 model.

What is it about the 2012 Honda Civic Si (available in both Sedan and Coupe) that has people talking? Many people say that they love the torque increase. The 2011 Civic Coupe's torque is 139 lb-ft @ 6100 rpm. The 2012 model has 170 lb-ft @ 4400 rpm. This is a significant increase from the previous year's model.

Increased torque is not the only great feature about the 2012 model. Holly gave us her own insight on the new model. "Honda is making some really cool changes to the 2012 Si. They gave the new Si great performance and cosmetic upgrades." The new Si has 201 horsepower and is lower to the ground with a much sleeker profile.
