Para64 1/64 1999 Honda Civic Si EM1 Taffeta White
The addition of this model to our portfolio is testament to the power of words. Countless discussions have taken place with our collectors on social media asking for US cars or USDM models (is this a backlash against JDM?).
The die was cast (pun aggressively intended) when Bryan from the Lamley Group made the suggestion for the '99 Civic Si Coupe after noticing the Electron Blue icon was missing from the higher end of 1/64.
Although most recognised in the USA as the Civic Si, the EM1 body type was also sold in other regions under different badges, and with different colours available.
In Europe, Latin America, the Middle East, it was known as the 1.6VTi VTEC. In Australia, NZ and it was called the Civic VTi-R.
The motoring press of the time were unanimous in their praise of this unassuming and practical coupe, with equal grocery carrying and hooning capabilities (below and above 6,000 rpm respectively). More recent articles fondly remember a simpler time which the Civic Si exemplifies by doing all the essentials perfectly in a discrete and sensible package.
PARA64 has kept the standard trim, launching initially with rear factory spoiler with free rolling wheels and our usual separate parts for lights.
