The force, be it Honda or not, is definitely not strong with this older Civic Si Coupe, as it has some controversial mods. Think ‘don’t dead open inside’.
Sporting ‘may the be with force you’ stickers on each side of the corporate logo on the trunk lid, this two-door Civic Si has additional decals further down, flanking the ‘Jedi Knt’ (just be careful how you read that latter word) license plate, and more on the C pillars.

As for the paint (or is that a wrap?), the owner chose light green, inspired either by the lightsaber or Yoda himself. It is definitely not a ‘bad’ car mod per se, as the person whose name is written on the dotted line did keep it simple, and by that, we mean that it does not have any big body kits and other weird mods.

However, it still found its way in Reddit’s eponymous thread, next to some truly horrific builds, some of which we’ve covered ourselves, and in our LOL category, breathing the same air as one extremely controversial S-Class. In case you missed the infamous Mercedes-AMG-Maybach-McLaren S 63 V12 by Brabus, dubbed ‘The Beast’ for whatever reason, you can find it here, though you’d feel the need to wash out your eyes after.

Before checking it out, we will remind you that the previous-gen Civic Si used a 205 hp and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) of torque 1.5-liter, and was (and still is) a decent sprinter to 60 mph. An updated version of the same lump powers the new-gen Civic Si, which has already made its way to dealers. It has 200 hp and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) on tap, and kicks off at $27,300, before the $1,015 destination charge. One of its biggest rivals, the Volkswagen Jetta GLI, is $3,695 pricier in the U.S. of A.
