That fat Stig sure makes a lot of excuses for the Civic. Both of them sure are making a lot of excuses for the Civic even though it got spanked by over 2 secs per lap, that's a life time on the track. Typical Honda fanboys.

Yea the only reason they're even compared is the similar pricetags, but they're really not even in the same class. The MS3 is more powerful, handles just as well or better, has more room, and is just a better all-around car.

They really are bias and really really trying to make the Honda seem like a better choice. Really the Honda looks like a plain 'ol.......Honda. It's 2012 and cars shouldn't look like they are from 1999.

Too bad the 1999 Civic Si looked way better than this new piece of crap.

Honda has gone boring. I test drove the SI before getting my MS3 and it was fun, but it was a regular honda that could rev to 8-9k rpm is all. Not fast, didn't handle any different and was just boring unless you really railed the engine all the time.
