Wow. That's better than sex. Except for the Shelby; that just looks like a bad Batmobile replica... minus the jet engine. I'm kinda diggin' the new Eclipse body, though. Now all we need is a 4G63 revival...

The Civic Si Concept celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Civic Si legacy in the U.S. and builds on its performance heritage with a 200-horsepower, 16-valve, DOHC i-VTEC engine with an 8,000 rpm red line, mated to a close ratio 6-speed manual transmission. Helping to put all that power to the ground is a helical-type limited slip differential for improved launch traction and cornering performance. Other performance features of the Civic Si Concept include 18-inch cast aluminum wheels, 225/40R18 high performance tires and 4-wheel disc brakes with large cross-drilled brake rotors and 4-piston Brembo calipers.
Yeah I'm likin' the Eclipse, but that Shelby looks like it's made out of stainless steel.
