So.. the Si is a pretty decent car.
I don't like the jellybean proportions. I'll never get over that. I don't like the split dash. The steering is shite.
And of course it could use a bit more power, and esp torque, but it's not tragic.
On the plus side, the shifter is incredible: precise, positive engagement into the gates, short throws, good spacing.
And the pedals are very well positioned for heel-toe.
I found myself goin up and down through the gears twice as much as I usually would, just for the fun of it.
Honda got those things bang on, but in my opinion the engineers need to improve the EPS setup in a big way.
And kill the jellybean. =)

sooooo...who here would actually buy a 2015/16 CTR...? ![evil2](/images/graemlins/default/evil2.gif) "so you're saying there's a chance......" I'd seriously consider it, but need pricing first. If it's gonna be a 50k civic, I will gladly pass up on that.
If a VW Golf R is $48,000 on the road Civic Type-R will be similar price range

whatever's on the net is pretty good idea (thus far)...and well, we may not miss the boat this time around ![wink ;\)](/images/graemlins/default/wink.gif) - nothing concrete yet ![frown \:\(](/images/graemlins/default/frown.gif) Yes you will if its still FWD. lolwut. What's wrong with fwd, and what do you propose honda do? Make a rwd type r? XD XD XD Don't be a drivetrain snob when you drive an auto sedan around town and your "racing" only happen on straight highways XD even one wheel drive can accomplish the same tasks bahahaha. I still think fwd is fun. Just needs to be setup well, and when it is, it is so easy to drive and rotate on demand. That coupled with low weight and no torque is tons of fun. Lots of gearbox rowing. I'd be excited to see the CTR hit our shores. But as is, I'm excited for the Focus ST. That machine is craaaaaazy. Too bad the interior is fugly.
oh snap

Meh it's Honda I'm not keeping any hopes high. They have nothing but shit boxes one after another for over the past decade. I'm not arguing FWD sucks...it's just Honda as a company is complete fail at this point in the "performance" department.

I dunno, that 2.0L turbo motor in there is a global engine (says Honda). If Ford brought over Focus/Fiesta ST, why not Honda in their Type R? Similar category of car imo. And I'm seeing a lot of Focus ST's on the road now.

Honda in NA only puts out fucking mundane POS now and have been for over a decade now. They are way behind in tech. Christ look at the 2014 CRV. 5spd auto??? Are you fucking kidding me!
