New Owner

[mtvette]

Hello. New 2024 Civic Hatchback Sport Touring owner.
My first Civic was a 1976 CVCC manual in the iconic yellow.
Followed by a 1980 and a 1983 "S" - both manuals. We were a young family and these were great daily driver/commuter cars.
I would have preferred a manual this time around but the boss said she was tired of shifting so its a CVT.
Very nice but vastly different from my Golf R that I just sold.
The engine has no cover and I wonder if thats normal. Can you buy a cover?
Are there any exterior mods to help make it stand out?
Any engine mods in spite of it being a CVT? Looks like it has a sort of a cold air intake.

Unfortunately, even the si doesn’t have an engine cover. Such a weird thing to leave out, guess budget cuts are in place ;p

rims are one thing that will def bring up the exterior. I’m personally not into gimmick upgrades so I wouldn’t add a large spoiler or anything. Rims and tint all you really need to start with imo

And I’m sure you’ll find an engine cover. I do see some on carid but I’m not really sure about the fit.

If only it was a manual.............

Don't stress the manual vs CVT--the Sport Touring doesn't come with a LSD, and the manual they used is less connected/satisfying vs the version in the Si/Integra/Type R.
