Any one that compares a four-banger sedan to a V-8 Coupe has lost some bolts in his head. The GT woul win all the way. It's like comparing a Mustang GT to a Bugatti Veynon a W12 if im not mistaken capable of reachin 1001 HP.

Civic SI is not a sedan, its only available as coupe. There will be sedan in the future.

Just read the article...
It was interesting, because I actually went through that exact debate: Mustang GT vs Civic Si. (Previously I was in the market for an '06 Acura RSX-S, but could not find a new one in the color I wanted, because they were discontinued in '07)
The Civic is fun to drive and reasonably fast. It's no Mustang GT, but I wouldn't call it a grocery-getter. My main issue was with the instrument panel: It looks it belongs in a spaceship, and I like to see rotating needles on dials, rather than digital readouts (easier to read with your peripheral vision).
But... with over 50% more HP and over 100% more torque... at the cost of only a few hundred more pounds... the Mustang GT won my bank account (ordered an '08 GT).

Also agree on opinion about the gimmicky gauges on the Civic mentioned a few posts back. WTH were they thinking?
