Civic Type R $39,990 + On Roads

[Felix]

Yeah. For a demo

Yeah not too sure that it was actually being used as a demo though.
The dealership had another one there which was there official demo one, its registered, and had over 3000 kms on it....
My one wasnt rego'ed.

Except for the KMs me and my mate put on it test driveing, it had only done $85kms in 4months. It took some convincing before the saleslady would let us drive it... So even though it has sat at the dealer, its probably only been driven around the block a few times, or off to get fueled up.

then i think another 3000km+ one should much cheaper than your new one?

Yeah i'm sure it would be much cheaper. Considering the condition. Bird crap stains on the car. One of the rims looked a bit guttered. etc etc.
But it wasn't the colour i was after anyway.

Yeah you are:

I'd always pay a premium for a car with very low kays, but that's just me. Hell, I even rejected discounted showroom floor vehicles.

Anyway, enjoy your car.

I wonder the lack of interest in the car is due to the Top Gear segment where Clarkson panned it in comparison to the EP3R.

Possibly.
Also I notice that there is next to NO advertising for this car. Honda spends big bucks on advertising there other cars, but not the CTR. VW, mazda etc seem to be advertising their performance hatches everywhere.

Allthough people are saying that its selling badly, i think you'll find if you compare the sales figures with previous audm type R's the new FN2R is probably selling more... Also take into account that there are a shit load more hot hatches (competition) on the market these days compared to when the DC2R and DC5R were new.

Every car got its own fans, just enjoy what u got!
