This is a '91 Honda Civic SiR, better known in most circles as the Honda Civic EG. Designed by Kohichi Hirata, the SiRs were fitted with the 1.6L B16A1 inline-4 making 168 BHP. The fifth generation of the Civic was available in a multitude of body styles; coupe, hatchback and sedan, of which various trim levels were available. Production began in September 1991 and ended in August 1995 when a new generation of Civic arose, better known as the EJ, EK and EM.
Now this casting was designed by the late Ryu Asada and introduced in the Fast Tuners sub-series in the Fast & Furious Premium Series; this car appeared as a background car in Fast and Furious 6. This casting is (and probably will remain) extremely popular. This casting has seen two known releases, the last being in a Hello Kitty paintscheme in the second iteration of the Modern Classics segment. A third release is on the horizon.
