    hmmm... Evo's have been mentioned above... but i reakon if I had the chance of owning a CTR.. I definately would pick it over the Evo 9. I guess that's just Honda love.

        new civic sport is 30.5k already.
        CTR pricing would be interesting.

              I went to honda yard few days ago to check new legend (by the way very nice car), and I asked them about CTR, the young guy had no idea what I was talking about, but his boss came and told me that UK build CTR is out because it would be around $50000 and it wouldn't sale, but he didn't know much about Jap sedan CTR, they should know more in next few months.

              Anyway if this sedan comes and is well priced ($40000) with brembos and other JDM stuff I'll be getting one asap

                    Have to say i would like to get hold of one of these eventually but i think i`ll take a Euro Accord R first.
                    I personally love the rear bumper and rear and a vtec indicator oh the joys
                    A bit more power would have being nice why they don`t push in more is a let down.
                    Be interesting to see weight and how it holds it pace trackwise for a sedan.
                    I just read the recent option magazine and checked the website, they said the power is slightly higher than that of the current JDM ITR. It said that the fuel tank is moved to the middle to improve the overall balance of the car.

                    Here's the suspected spec they listed:

                    Engine: K20A i-VTEC 4 cyclinder DOHC
                    (CC): 1,998
                    Compression: 11.5
                    Horsepower (ps/rpm): 225+/8000
                    Torque (kgm/rpm): 21.5/7000
                    Fuel (km/l): 12.8

                    Length(mm): 4,540
                    Width(mm): 1,771
                    Height(mm):1,425
                    Weight(kg): 1,190

                    The weight is the same as current ITR, but they are working on it to reduce the weight down to get more power, they are targeting the CTR to outperform current JDM ITR.

                              Yeap, still my car atm, but not for long. Nar...its the old N1 kit. I quite like the new NII kit though, lucky they have both versions for the new DC5 and Old DC5 for people to choose unlike Ings New one which only fits the new DC5
