Default 06 Euro Civic Concept Hatchback pics leaked!

If you like the ugly Ridgeline or Element, you'll LOVE putting this next to it in the garage.

The pics enlarge when you click on them

what happened? it looks more and more like a matchbox car to me... what is up with that front? and that rear? and those sides? and that car?

i like the current civic si hatchback out, i think it's pretty clean and nice looking... but this is just on a whole new level of outrageous....

I'm too lazy to find and post a link, but it is a dead ringer for the camo'd production test models that have been photographed.

Yes, it's horrible.

What happened? The Civic Si Coupe pictured before looked good, but this car looks like a totally different line up. Oh well, I like coupes more anyway.

It looks like a futuristic concept car from the early 80s............
The Jetsons came to mind.

Looks like a slightly squashed and stretched version of the Mercedes Smart Car, doesn't it?
