Honda is unveiling the "Sport Concept Civic Si" and is highlighting a number of Honda vehicles that have been built especially for the show. Among these are a dozen 2006 Civic Si show cars that have been delivered to sport compact vehicle builders across the country. Selecting from hundreds of proposals, Honda chose the very best designs and provided builders with the new Civic Si. The stunning creations are on display throughout the convention hall.


The high performance 2006 Civic Si once again emphasizes Honda's credentials as a leading performance innovator. Beginning in the early 1980s, performance builders and racers recognized the potential of Honda engines to radically re-shape the high performance field. At a time when V-8 engines were considered the only performance option, 4-cylinder Honda Civics began to get noticed as they won races and set speed records. By the late 1980s, the Honda Civic had become one of the most popular vehicles of the sport compact performance movement that was just taking root and would later explode in popularity throughout the 1990s.


In addition to the Civic Si, a wide variety of Honda's new Ridgeline half-ton trucks will be exhibited with modifications that range from slammed to lifted. Convention-goers will get one of their first looks at the performance and body modifications that showcase the huge potential of the Ridgeline and specialty equipment enhancements with the Street Sport Concept Ridgeline and the All-Terrain Ridgeline Concept.
