[VTEC Goes Bwaah]

Hi guys and gals, I currently own an 8th gen Civic and I'm reaching the point where an upgrade is needed. I considered getting the current Civic but given everything that's happened with covid I'm going to wait until the new one comes out. I hope Honda continues its sporty design with this new car.

Welcome!

Which trim is your 8th Civic? Always been a fan of that gen, especially the Acura CSX version.
Aside from sportier design, what else are you hoping Honda does this time around?

Thanks @hondapwr! It's an EX-L sedan. For the new car I'd like to see a slight power boost across the lineup but I understand there's a fine balance between power and economy for the lower trims.

Increasing competition might force Honda to do that. Have you seen the new Kia K5?

Welcome to the forum @VTEC Goes Bwaah. If the power boost doesn't happen would you consider the new Type-R? (Side note - I love the name haha)

Thanks Palmer! Possibly but I doubt I'll be able to afford the new one.
