Honda Booth Wows Visitors At 2011 Sema Show

It was more or less expected that Honda would put a lot of emphasis on its 2012 Civic range at this year's edition of the SEMA aftermarket show in Las Vegas.

The Japanese brand brought along a total of seven modified Civic Si Coupes and sedans including a two-door model equipped with a limited-edition Honda Factory Performance (HFP) package and several concepts.

“The Honda Civic was instrumental in the first import-tuner movement in the U.S. during the ‘80s,” said Bruce Smith, vice president of Service and Technical Operations for American Honda. “The all-new Civic Si builds on that proud history by offering inspiring performance, improved fuel economy and a great platform for personalization.”

The HFP package is available for order now but production will be limited to just 500 units in the U.S. It includes high-performance springs that lower the Civic Si Coupe's ride height by 15 mm; high-performance dampers that promise to decrease body roll; 18-inch alloy wheels; a full HFP aerodynamic body kit; HFP carpet floor mats; red ambient interior illumination; and, HFP emblems.

The other 2012 Civic Si-based models displayed at Honda's SEMA Show booth include the Honda Performance Development (HPD) Compass360 Racing model, a stripped out Coupe body for those that want to build a racecar and which retails for $3,500, plus three tuning concepts built by Bisimoto Engineering, Fox Marketing and Tjin Edition.

They all look very nice. It's a good sign that we'll have more mods available soon, and a lot more personalized Civics.

wait.....what?!?!?! you can buy a stripped out coupe shell for $3500? not a bad starting point if you want to build a gutted monster.....

Wanna call FR for me? :giggle: Do you think the susp and other stuff would be included in the $3500? im guessing $3500 for the shell only.
 
Prospective race teams looking for a similar setup need only contact Honda Performance Development. Forking over $3500 to Honda's U.S. racing R&D shop buys a body-in-white (actually a muted army green), a bare chassis pulled straight off the assembly line. HPD, of course, also offers a parts kit that includes bushings, suspension components, a limited slip differential, and brake assemblies, among other parts.
 
The Fox Wide body looks so good.
