Will it be released? and if so, how much wonga?

The new Type-R seems to have lost the whole 'R' ethos, but this seems to have addressed that by chucking out all the un-required sh1t. If it's going to hit the streets... great... cause I will be replacing the MG early next year and this could be on the list.

But, if it's just a concept/marketing model... then it makes you wonder if Honda have gone soft.

I like the colour scheme of body/wheels... ripped straight from the Integra R... which was probably planned to make enthusiast think of the integra when looking at this model.

lol... So, Auto Express sum up the peice with a comment to the effect, that this proves the Civic is the best Hot Hatch.... but fail to mention that they are comparing a £64K one-off against stock Focus ST's... :roll:

Now I remember why I stopped buying their mag.

Nice car by the sounds of it though... thought the sequential gearbox was too good to be true.

I never really understood what was so hard about making sequential boxes for cars. Afterall every motorbike has one.

Ah, what the type R should have been! :shock:

Looks better too, but still don't like the styling. :evil:
