Honda Fans Invited To Tune 2012 Civic
Honda has come under much scrutiny in 2011 – as the 2012 Civic sedan receives constant poor reviews for their lackluster “redesign” and quality of interior materials.
They just don’t make ‘em like they did 30 – 40 years ago. The Japanese auto maker reminded fans of this fact, showing off a 1975 Honda Civic 3-Door at the 2011 SEMA Auto Parts Enhancement Show:
To make up for this generation’s Civic, Honda invited tuners to come and “re-do” the 2012 variant. Here are two of the best additions (in our opinion) seen at SEMA:
Bisimoto Civic Si
The Bisimoto Civic Si (pictured at the top of this post) has one flashy “race-inspired bright blue paint scheme” along with (get ready) 1,004-horsepower turbocharged factory-based K2427 four-cylinder engine. Yikes!
Bisimoto Civic is front-wheel-drive, and enhanced with steel rods, Turbonetic turbocharger, upgraded injectors and camshafts, along with Portflow headers. Falken 18-inch tires wrap around Eins Gramm alloy wheels.
Tjin Edition Civic Si
Designed as a “livable daily driver with an added dose of style,” Tjin Edition Civic features a custom wrap by Daley Visual and Wraptivo. Its front grille, roof, rear wing and diffuser are made of carbon fibers. Purple 19-inch alloy wheels by Rotiform BLQ are used down below. Inside, black leather seats with contrasting purple diamond stitch are added. There’s a set of Recaro child seats included, appealing to the “family-friendly attitude” of this design.
