MKIV R32 is by far more sexy than an FN2...

Totally disagree... the r32 is so bland and that IMO is about the whole range of VW... the main reason i didnt buy it... i wanted something with different looks which will always catch peoples eye...
But it is personal preference and the R32 is just another car on the road to me...I reckon it does sound nice as hell alot nicer then my type r but thats not what i was buying the car for...

and maybe whack in a sub for extra bass.

Have a look at my type r box for sale if your interested might be what u want...

[SIRFN2]

Yeh thanks mate but im not looking to get a sub anytime soon atm..

want to get my wheels first haha

Yeh i had the 2004 r 32. best sound ever but it cost too much to run! Heaps better looking than the Mk5 r32.

Thats the only reason why i traded the car.

Dont think the r32 was a better car, cant compare the 2 because there in different classes. Like comparing apples and oranges.

we're you ever on vwvortex.....theres an australian section there.

your very honest. respect!...........VW and euro cars are INSANE in terms of upkeep cost!........

I was at EC recently in the MKI and a friend in a modded MKIV R32 managed a 1:53...........

yes the stering in the newer civic platforms are exceptional. I also have a FD2 as well.

fair enough if your sensible enough to buy something that makes more economical sense.

[SIRFN2]

ahaha

yeh i was, thanks man..yeh just too much, i had a quote for brake pads and they were like 250 a pop. The brakes on the r32 were massive like an EVO.

Good forum, not many mk4 r32 in sydney. Black esp.

[fasthonda]

Just personal perference i guess.

Exactly,congratulations on your purchase.I'm sure you will enjoy it.
It would stand to reason that your previous car would have more straight line speed than the FN2 but the FN2 is quite fun to drive.
I now rarely post on these OZHONDA because compared to other forums it's SHITHOUSE, really it is!
Anything that you post regarding the FN2 -good or bad-you have the same tiresome anti-FN2 arguments so much so that they are wearing thin.Some arguments are direct while others are more subtle.The Fn2 is very good car it's not as fast as the FD2 Type R but that's what we've been given in Australia.The FN2 handles well and looks IMHO,unique!
I looked at other cars before buying the CTR,including the GTI,but at the end I chose the Civic -and I don't regret it at all.

Fasthonda.

Thanks man, yeh im enjoying the car alot. Definitely not as fast in a straight line yes.

Yeh i know what your saying about those same comments and arguments haha. I been through all the treads regarding the FN2R.

My GF has got the GTI, awesome car i drive heaps too, if she didnt have it i wouldnt gone for that. But im still satisfied with my buy.
