That's a pretty cool video on the Civic Type R! The driver compares his personal experience of the Integra Type R and this one. Nice to see how it handled but he did say that the car wasn't meant to be driven on that track but with some adjustments, it will work great.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

Come on Honda, bring that Type R over here!

Wow, it really looked like he was pushing the hell out of that car! It seemed to have a bit of body roll (nothing compared to our cars), but he was gettin' on it. I'm jealous, I want that damn Type R!!
Honda, whats wrong with you?!?! Do ya'll not realize that this car will sell?!?!?!

The reason they didn't bring the type R to the US is because they were afraid it would steal sales from the RSX. Sweet video.
