Ricer. You should know what that word means in car culture before you get yourself into the Civic Si. That said, the eighth generation Civic Si has been around long enough that people are starting to figure out what Honda actually made... so maybe the reputation isn't all bad. see full Honda Civic review

Really I do not dislike the Odyssey. I bought it to use taking cloths etc. to Florida for the winter. The Mercedes does not have the cargo volume I need even if the mpg is much better see full Honda Odyssey review
