We just may get the JDM CTR in Australia.

Now the TOVers are ramping up a campaign as well;

If the States get a decent allocation (which I assume Honda U.S would if it gets off the ground), watch for (more) supply problems from the Japanese factory!

Agreed, the FD2R is the new king of front wheel, but the FN2R looks better :P

Asians don't like to drive hatchback cars..... one of the reasons why malaysia was so into getting the FD2R. haha

No, the reason was because they wanted the true JDM Type R, not a watered down version.

You obviously havent been to Malaysia then, to have made that comment. I think the yen vs euro and the pound might have alot to do with the fesability aswell.

End of the day, if you had the choice, what do you reckon??

true, especially TRD Aurion, looks fierce and also "fierce" price

honestly, i'm not consider FN2R as civic type-r (no offense to FN2R owner).
FD2R is real Civic type-r, release from original Honda country

Fair enough, but remember, the JDM EP3R was designed and built in the UK as well.

[FN2TypeR]

What you mean it's not a real Type R? It's branded Type R, sold as Type R, marketed as Type R, registered as Type R, insured as Type R, hell it even has Type R badges inside and out.

Integras and Civics with fake Type R badges are non type Rs.

What you're referring to is that there are 2 civic type Rs. One is for the european/australian market and the other is for the asian market. Both are Type R's no matter what you think it is.

Your FD1 is what we call a non Type R.

And don't give me that "its not as hardcore or raw" crap.

[xqwzit]

^sorry not everyone here have to like your car
so dont give us shit , i also think its not really a real 'type R'

[BusterSonic12]

i just believe the real type r are dc2r and fd2r since those are the hardcore one.
but stuff like fn2r and euror they more just sport style.

however, i still personally love euroR and it is still my favorite type r even tho people say it's not real r
