I found this article of the new euro EP. It's a short article but it's always good to be well informed :D Check this out: "The Type R range-topper is getting greater throttle responsiveness in response to customer complaints. The result is an even faster 0-to-60-mph acceleration time of 6.6 seconds. And North American consumers stand a chance at finally getting this model sent across the Atlantic." Now how does that sound??? Maybe we won't jus get a mere facelift.

Here's the link: Revised euro ep (http://www.cars.com/carsapp/boston/?srv=parser&act=display&tf=/features/autoshow2003/coverage/frankfurt/posted/story.tmpl&story=coverage_09_10_01)

Those skirts look really good. If I had those skirts, I would forget about the front and rear lip. Hopefully somebody will import those.

I bet they still snap into holes in the body.

I understand that the 2004 Si/SiR have some kind of side sill on them. Wouldnt it suck if they snapped into the body as well? It would make it tougher for us 02-03 owners to upgrade.

Man.. I LOVE those headlights. I dunno.. i think they make it look more aggressive then my current 02 SiR...

Does anyone know if it is possible to take out my headlights and replace it with the new 04 Si(R) lights?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say yes....because I really want those headlights too. My HIDs right now are a little too blinding to everyone else on the road coming the other way b/c it's too bright and not focused. These projectors should solve that problem nicely, plus two bright ass dots always looks sexy.

Hmm....i wonder what these headlights would look like blacked out.

The civic has always been classed as a small family car over here. I guess its cos it comes with a variety of engines and 5 door. The CTR is just the hot version. Slightly different market to the US/canada who only get the Si.
