First Drive: 2006 Honda Civic Si

Honda returns the Civic Si to its roots as a high-strung compact sports coupe. Make no mistake; this sleek 2-door hatch requires an expert hand to extract its true potential. Honda engineers coax more power from an inline-4 than anybody else, and the 197-bhp 2.0L is no exception. With its slick 6-speed manual and rev-happy engine, the Civic Si just begs to be flogged on the track, so we did just that.
