Default New member- question about future models

After 4 years of modding and driving my 02 Jetta 1.8T, I've decided to get something a little bigger and newer. I've got my heart set on a 7th gen Coupe V6/6speed. However, before I run out and buy an 05, I want to find out what the 06's look like. Coming from sleek European styling, I have to admit the front of the Accord Coupe doesnt really excite me. If they are going to make it look more like the TL, then I will wait and get an 06.

I've googled with no luck. Anyone know what the changes for 06 will be?

Here's a pic of my current car...

Have you considered a TSX? Not as powerful as the V6 6spd, but looks nice and the performance isn't bad 220hp?

From what most have TRIED to research all I found...is a RUMORED possible 10hp increase and few very minor changes. It'll could probably still be a 7th Gen. Who knows yet.

I want something at least as quick as what I've got (high 90's in the 1/4). The TSX is nice, but I really dont want a peaky 4 banger. I found out about the V6 coupe while helping my GF buy a Civic. While waiting on the finance paper work, the salesman tossed me the keys to a 6 speed coupe and said take it for a spin. At the time, my car was only a year or so old, so I wasnt ready to trade. Point is- I'm in love with the coupe 6 speed, I just want to make sure they aren't doing major changes before I buy. I've read rumors of significant sheet metal changes to the front and rear.

Then get her **** on the Honda Civic Forum!!!!

In the meantime, I will try to find you some info on the new 7th gen. Finding hard stuff is what I do for a living... well, part of it.
