official unveiling is the 28th so we'll see if these are real. most likely it will be toned down for production like all other honda concepts. and that type-r sticker on the sides is hideous.

Only one big downside though: the Civic Type-R uses more or less the same engine as the Civic Si coupé. As such, don't expect better performance than the Si coupé is now.

perhaps a lighter curb weight and stiffer suspension could make it worth while.. plus some indefinite type r goodies:naughty:

a little too obnoxious, but it will be the new hot hatch
