You only have to look at the number of Evo IX's on the road these days to see that a more serious Honda is need for the aussie market. With the economy doing as well as it has over the last 5 years ppl are willing to spend more and if Honda don't take the market seriously it's their loss.
It may well be another 12-18 months before any of this comes true but if it does.....
FARK YEH!!!

I'm was going to buy mags today. Now seeing this thread, I think i'll keep my money safe and start saving for the JDM CTR.

i think this would be great, havin the 2 cars would cater for the die hard type r buyers and bring them back and then havin the UK Type R still for those that dont want the raw sports car and want sumthing with a few of the luxury featurs.
Id love the power of the jap one but would rather have the UK in the looks department. but thats Just my opinion I hate big spoilers ect and after selling so many of the civic sedans id just rather the hatch look.
im not biased, i just tell it how it is.

wowow...
now das one BIG!!! little news out there man...
personally i think is LIKELY to happen, else the CEO wouldnt come out and say things like this.
So.. lets start the saving guys!

lol i really dont care wats the real one, after reading all ur opinions i know know the uk one isnt really a 'real' type r, as im not a massive R fan like most of u blokes. Id still get the UKCTR just on looks more than anything, i cant stand that big spoiler and it just looks like the normal VTi with a wing from ebay on the back!
i love my climate, cruise, cd, and vsa for everyday driving!
im not biased, i just tell it how it is.

once the FD2 has been detuned, therer are no real 'type-r' in Australia.
Before buying the FN2, I was also thinking whether the FD2 would appears in here......but, i cant really take the whole design of the FD2...just like a very normal honda 4 door Vti....no matter how fast it is.

u are dead wrong
it is detuned because of our petrol quality or if u still want to make yourself feel better, yeah it is not 100% a real typeR but still at least a real typeR shape but not a 206 with all the typeR badges.
it is not a normal honda 4 dr vti or even sports...... u need to see one of the best motoring vid before you say that.
At least s 4 dr vti have some parts available from Mugen or even spoon

LOL....yeah...i agree that FN2 looks like a 206, and i also have a feeling that FD2 is similar with Toyota Camry (which the situation is even worst). By the way, it is totally depends on personal preference.
YOu already have a bias against the FN2, not able to dsicuss this anymore.
Go & buy a type-r badges to make your honda a type-r man~
