This newer model is actually a bit of a dissapointment compared to the older EP3 Civic Type R. Search for Top Gear's review of it where the renowned Jeremy clarkson compares it to the older model and you'll understand why.
Yes it looks gorgeous inside and out, but Honda actually missed a trick or two with this one.
@Vesuvio360 i don't trust Jeremy's review on that.
i have seen that and he claims the newer one is slower and the suspension is not independent so handling is not as good. u cant judge it if you haven't road tested it yourself. i think he gets paid to talk for some instances. his reviews doesnt make any sense sometimes.
what the hell it only has 142 hp, ugh its still cool tho, my gsr has 180, 160 stock, but i mod it a lil bit so i'm at 180, but yeah i would rent this civic when i go to europe or japan
unfortunately the new vw golf is now a better track car than this.. the old civic type-r is still a track car, but this.. its just a gt... fd2 type-r rocks.. sad it will never come to the eu..
not everyone gets their information on cars from top gear, i happen to know that a torsion beam suspension is shit, and is used to cut costs.
the old car which i own, i know is better for its independant suspension.
how is it not a step back, surely a type R is a drivers car? I doubt the ppl who buy type R's for the driving experience care for the electronic options. in fact they'd be happier if it didnt have the options to aid weight saving.
37,577.44 USD? thats insane!!!I'm pretty sure a civic wouldn't sell here in the States.But for $32,990 I can drive the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution.Wanna save the planet drive a fuckin bicycle.
this car pisses me off, new cars are about evolution, making them better. But this runs an ancient torsion beam rear suspension, compared to the ep3's fully independent set up. Im dissappointed honda took a back step in technological terms.
They should chnage the name from the Type-R to something else, because the japanese type-R is leagues ahead of this ugly car. the JDM would destroy this imposter of a Type-R.
Actually its the other way around. Most of the world uses left hand drive and a few countries use right hand drive. Quit calling people retards unless you know what the hell you're talking about.
omg shoot that stupid bitch she ruined the review

The ENTIRE WORLD Drives on the Right(meaning, the stearing wheel is on the LEFT)
This is AUSTRALIA, so Honda manufactures their vehicles for their consumption.
The Old British Commonwealth Nations have the wheel on the right, but for Canada, who shares a border with USA.
Japan drives in the British Style; but NOT China.
Only Australia and Japan are right-hand Drives-
Wow! Two idiots for the price of one!!!
