huh? the car hauls fucking ass. R-mode is full retard. the car handles on rails. ideally would be nice to try on track to see the trick-diff in action and if it does put the power down nicely...it seems it does given TG tests and the 'Ring laps.

looks...yeah ricey but such are hot hatches. front/side i like, back is ugly imo. given our ages lol....driving daily yeah i agree a bit much for the looks. =\

good review here already:
http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/2017-honda-civic-type-r-first-drive-review

and some good explanations of the trick susp/diff setup to have very little trq steer. (bcuz z0mg fwd piece of shit not awd dickballs as per internet cucks)

i personally dig the type r.
Super awesome.
the new si (coupe) is very nice too.
The death of the k series is sad though - the FG civic is the corner stone of an era.

^except the haldex cant take the power and likes to explode \:\)
And golf r is "awd" with open diffs vs trick diff in a 2wd car. The CTR is the true performance automobile here. Though golf r is the better street car to live with--and 99% what people want anyways

I like it, there I said it lol
Yes the big fake plastic mesh grills could have been done better, but most cars seems to have them.
If I had 40 plus k to buy a new car, it would be on the top of my list. BUUUUT I would never pay over sticker for one

I think it's a pretty amazing car in many way, it sounds like they've managed to keep the power under control for fwd. I would still give major kudos to Honda for making the effort. But just like Hatorade, I can't get past the looks. Too over the top, a little too much Erebuni/Shogun going on.

Kudos for finally having something out for sure. But why did they have to fuck with the looks so much.

^not really

priced almost exact same as Golf R and STI sport (STI spot tech is 45,300! lollerskates). mitsu EVO has been killed off. focus RS 48k!

and the CTR will actually last past 150k km's :P and not over heat diffs

i disagree.
trick diff, trick shocks. there isn't anything wrong with 2wd.
it's the question of...do you want more refinement aka golf r, or a real sport focused car aka ctr. on the circuit, this thing is going to rape all the things.

and it's not like there is a good value proposition for any halo car.
gt3 included XD XD XD

dis doe......................

http://www.roadandtrack.com/new-cars/first-drives/a10229897/chevrolet-camaro-zl1-1le-first-drive/

holy shitballs of fire....and comes in cheaper than gt3 i assume.

re. CTR, rumouuurrrr is jpn is thinking about a future AWD ver. but who knows.
also the way the susp adjust in unison with the diff to control any understeer and trq steer is unreal apparently (if you track it).

Okokok I like the car, but there is no special sauce noted in that article. That front end design (suspension) is not new, using brakes to help the car steer is something the focus st already does, and a helical diff is something an si has. Not to mention, every modern euro car pretty much has a flat underbelly and even aero fairings for the control arms...and some even go so far as to shape the muffler so that it is integrated into the diffuser (see frs). Soooo it's a nice car, but that car throttle site just listed a bunch of plebeian stuff :(. Is there anything better that shows the tech side of it all XD
