Did people really think a civic, much less a Type-R, would have no road noise? Its already quite insulated compared to past Honda cars. Try a S2k or the ITR. The road noise in combination with the engine and music is all part of the experience.
I will take whichever ends up being cheaper. If I get the CTR, I'll feel slightly more content because of my past ownership of a ITR, but more stress because it will be a DD. If I end up with a ITS, I might be overrall happier because it might not stand out as much and itsnt as "limited" or...
Huh, I didnt think a comment like that would sway me but having owned a '01 ITR with JDM Recaros and '04 S2k, both as weekend queens, it was frankly tiresome keeping those cars mint.
Im now far less sentimental and neurotic. I want a great Honda product that harkens back to those special...
For some, they buy it for its intended purpose, which is to be able to crack the window a few inches in inclement weather without getting your interior dirty. Most get it because they feel it makes their car look better.
I never got on board with that look, but then again, I also dont tint either.
Man, I still cant get over how massive this car is. Not just the width, but its long too. I'll have to get used to it as someone who prefers a S2k sized car.
Looks wise, this is definitely better than the CTR. Especially the headlights and the entire rear. Interior is definitely an upgrade except I would have preferred bucket seats from the CTR.
Definitely looking at this over the R at a not insane MSRP from Honda.
I do like this color but its my last choice next to the baby blue color. My 19 mazda 3 hatch is the the same chalk gray color and Im sick of looking at a gray car. CW is first and red is second.
Thats what Im hoping to feel after I sold my ITR and AP2. Every time I get in and get to row those gears with that amazing Honda tranny, I get excited all over again. The only thing I feel I'll miss is the NA VTEC.
