12.3m? man the camry even does better than that!

12.3m makes the car feel like it has a more sensitive steering, but it makes the car a nightmare to park...

so how does this make the CTR a more liveable car?

Weight doesn't do justice, drive it and you will know how good the car is.

[UNLS1]

so it isnt 12.3 rite?

nope, i got honda to ring me today, its not brouchure!
i dont know where that figure was plucked from!

the weight is correct though.

i think people need to actually test drive the car than commenting based on other peoples reviews. or what they read on specs..if you have driven the car and pushed it and gotten a feel you might have a different opinion...at the end of the day the type R is a new car for the market and if you have 44K laying around and want a honda civic type R then go for it. Those who complain about performance just go buy a s2000, 350Z, WRX, EVO, S15 or something with a V8 engine in it and you can have as much power as possible...just remember speed limits

You sure it's not 11.2 and 11.8? There is usually a difference of at least .5 metre between wheel and body figures and body is usually the quoted figure.

11.2 and 11.8 is what this site lists
