the new FD2 CTR is fuggin awesome.

the CTR is a FF car with suspension setup to drive like a FR. That is why the CTR looks like it drives smoother. The factory suspension is actually "too stiff" for street to some according to Best Motoring and Top Gear.

Best Motoring did a Tsakuba 6 car battle, the CTR hung in 1st until the last straight with the NSX-Type S :bowdown:

I read about that, which is why I wasn't surprised when I saw that vid when it was posted in the civic forum.

Very impressive performance, referring mainly to the chassis setup of course, but the tweaking to the engine is very nice too.

Not big on the styling, but similar performance w/ the look of the North American coupe or the euroR would be awesome.

Welcome to today's styling. :hs: I think the civic sedan looks pretty good and the CTR looks even better. Consider the alternatives: Cobalt, Focus, Sentra? :barf:
