good find.

aus needs an option for a CTR with less options/luxuries!! gt version is too heavy in terms of performance driivng.

Too many mixed reviews of the FN2R out there, can't believe anything. Have a drive and decide for yourselves guys, i still think it needs an LSD at LEAST, entry speed is really quick but I just can't get the power down to the front wheels after the apex of a corner.

Well latest top gear just tested a civic type R, and judging by the reviews too much understeer kills the whole car.......

How bad can it be seriously, clarkson justs shoots it down. But the fact of the matter is that its cheaper than a golf gti and its 0.02 seconds faster than it on the TG test track, i doubt its way slower then a EP3 maybe a second at most.

How Bad ??? Top gear and Fifth Gear both says it understeers too much. You can see the car trying to go round the corner when the Stig takes it around the track.. Compared to the previous Type R you can see what he bags the crap out of the new one.

I've seen both the 5th gear and top gear reviews of the FN2R. I'm just too lazy to defend it anymore.
