Turbo!?

[Perry]

OMG the front reminds me of a golf R for some reason where the daylights are. About time Honda started turboing again. Don't like the shape as well for some reason.

[Flippit]

reckon they could have made it any uglier?

Goodbye N/A type R heritage...........

What happened to you Type R, you use to be cool

Edit.... oh gosh, I just had a look at the wheels that are on it....... goodbye JDM too

155kw turbo charge, a joke. An N/A k24/k20 engine could out perform it and not have turbo lag.

ugly as hell in green

I reckon the looks will improve more - but Turbocharged engine? WHY? TYPER and honda is the reason why i left Nissan and turbo vehicles as I think they are over rated

Bring back the NA

[MYDC5R]

no fkn way yuk

[ggwpty]

Pretty sure I read somewhere on the Honda website regarding the Type R philosophy ... which said something about always relying on a NA engine rather than forced induction ... =/

thought Australia had intentions of getting the US version of Civic’s?
Just remember the Civic Type R EP3 & FN2 are all UK cars.
JDM cars are too hard core for Australia & pricey Nobody will buy them.

Back in 2001 a DC5R was $47k.......WTF, I’ll take the WRX for $40 thanks, That’s what i was thinking at the time?

Pretty sure this will be a UK/US Tye R again as Japan will no longer have Civics.

[Lemmiwinks]

God damn it looks ugly! Looks like the Ford Fiesta!

[Norm]

[gunpoons]
