I like this better than the coupe, I hope they build it. If they do, it's a given that the ricer wing won't make it. Build it Honda! :thumbup:

Discuss. :eatpop:

4-wheel disc brakes with large cross-drilled brake rotors, 4-piston Brembo calipers <---I like these

...Why.. just... why. IMO hondas styling has gone down the drain

Just plain horrible compared to the decent looking 90s and early 00s.

They will never use the Brembo's or cross-drilled rotors in the production version. They used the same set-up when showing the SI coupe last year.

[Speed4TheNeed]

I personally think it's pointless.

[ragingpaseo]

not bad, i like both of them...just the idea of SI being 4 door is a bit odd...

[WillyK]

The 4 door SI looks like a Neon in the side view picture.

[ragingpaseo]

^my thoughts exactly...

[celica_pete21]

I dont think so...I kind of like it. And I really like the styling of it too. I mean, if you are in to sporty cars, and can afford an Evo...but yet you need the 4 door for the family car side, I think that this car would perfect. Shoot I hope they do come out with it. I like it...

this is the right direction in my opinion

two doors, two seats

four doors, four seats

two doors, four seats is just retarded - the rears are too small to be used by a real person, and they're impossible to get at anyways.

One of the main reasons I went with the G35C over the 350Z. I have never put anyone in the backseat nor will I, it's just nice to have the space when needed.

[cbnblu]

I agree to a certain degree... The rear in the Celica - or most two door four seaters sucks, unless for kids in kiddy seats. But it is nice to be able to fold down the seats for more stuff, unless you have a strut bar mounted....

most 2 seaters have a **** ton of space in the back

Will never come on the production model. Same with the wheels.

Bwahahaha. I didn't notice that before but it most definately does look like a Neon since I've taken a second look.

[techgeekwill]

mmmmmm packaged speed. I hope all those middle aged men buy these and take it theirs to the track every weekend

[imatunergts]

I seen a 4 door si in the 96-00 models, i couldnt believe it but he pulled the title registration and it was a legit 4 door si than i asked him to pop the hood so he did and low and behold was the B16 that laid in it had all factory stuff on it everything than he said he was in the middle of buying a turbo for it. Than i was like ok lets see the inside and he had all the badging right for a si all the si interior i was like this is sweet.
