The 10th generation Civic Si, available from 2017-2020, marked a significant shift for Honda's sport compact. It was the first Si to feature a turbocharged engine, a 1.5-liter inline-4 producing 205 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. All cars came standard with a 6-speed manual transmission, a helical limited-slip differential, and adaptive dampers, making it a well-equipped performance value from the factory.
Enthusiasts appreciate the 10th gen Si for its sharp chassis, slick gearbox, and the accessible low-end torque from the new engine. It's a fantastic daily driver that's also capable on back roads or at a track day. It's also the last generation to offer an Si coupe, making that body style a point of interest for future collectibility. The Si offers a large portion of the pricier Type R's fun in a more subtle and affordable package.
Market values for the 2017-2019 models show that these cars have experienced their initial depreciation and are now holding steady. With an average sale price under $20,000, they represent a strong buy in the modern used performance market. Condition, mileage, and modifications are the primary drivers of value, with clean, unmodified examples commanding a premium.
Buying Tips
- The 1.5L turbo engine can experience oil dilution, especially in colder climates or on cars used for frequent short trips. Check the oil for a gasoline smell and ensure the car has had the Honda ECU software update.
- The stock clutch can be a weak point, particularly on tuned cars. Test for slippage under acceleration in 3rd or 4th gear. Many owners upgrade to a stronger aftermarket unit.
- Check the air conditioning system thoroughly. Condenser failures were common enough that Honda issued a warranty extension, so verify if any repairs have been performed.
- Scrutinize any modifications. While common, poorly executed mods can harm reliability. Cars that are stock or have easily reversible, high-quality bolt-ons are generally a safer purchase.
- Pre-2019 models have a touch-only volume control on the infotainment system that many find frustrating. The 2019 model year added a physical volume knob and other small updates.
Based on recent sales, prices range from $15,500 for higher-mileage examples to $29,000 for low-mile, well-preserved cars.
