Do the US 01 + up civics look the same in Japan as they do here? Anyone know where to find pics of Japanese version Hondas. I haven't been able to find any. THANKS

 

Yes, they look the same. Just like in Europe, the main model in Japan is a four-door hatchback. The sedan is a less popular variant, but it looks just like ours. Here are some links.

Four-door hatch, called a Civic: http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/civic/
Four-door sedan, called a Civic-Ferio: http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/civic-ferio/
Two-door sporty hatchback, called a Civic R: http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/civic-r/

It's interesting to look at the whole lineup of Hondas: http://www.honda.co.jp/auto-lineup/

They have some we don't have, for example the Accord Wagon. I wish they sent more station wagons over here.

 

Another cool Civic variant is called the Stream. It's like a Civic wagon or minivan, not sure which.
