Street Racing Cars For Sale

The all-new, Canadian-built 2012 Honda Civic Si Coupe took on duties as a Safety Car for the IZOD IndyCar Series this past weekend at the Honda Indy Toronto. The 201-horsepower Si Coupe was recently transformed by Honda Performance Development (HPD), Honda's racing subsidiary in Los Angeles, into an official IZOD IndyCar Series Safety Car.

"The high-performance new Honda Civic Si is the perfect match for the IndyCar Safety Car fleet," said Jerry Chenkin, executive vice president of Honda Canada. "With its larger and more powerful 2.4-litre engine and enhancements provided by HPD, it is ready to lead the IZOD IndyCar Series field at the Honda Indy Toronto and beyond." Modifications to the already highperformance stock Civic Si include: Sparco seats and four-point racing harnesses; an HPD high-performance brake system with four-piston calipers; competition rotors; racing pads and stainless brake lines; a Honda Genuine Accessory aerodynamic body kit consisting of front, side and rear under spoilers; and Firestone Firehawk tires mounted on Enkei alloy wheels. An exclusive graphics theme completes the conversion from a showroom Civic Si Coupe to an IZOD Indy-Car Series Safety Car. The Safety Car was be driven during IZOD IndyCar Series events by three-time Indianapolis 500 champion Johnny Rutherford.

Unveiled in April at the New York International Auto Show, the 2012 Honda Civic features more streamlined and expressive "mono-form" exterior styling, wrapped around a spacious cabin with more style and convenience. Available new technology features include an intelligent, Multi-Information Display (I-MID), USB audio interface, hands-free Bluetooth and a satellite-linked Navigation System with voice recognition and FM traffic.
