@FastestLaps or @Hoppelmoppel123 think it’s worth making a separate page for the US Spec?

It had 10 hp less

At the minute 5:49, Quattroruote magazine mentioned a 274 km/h tested top speed for the Civic Type R FK8.

Where's the Nürburgring lap time?

I know it’s old thread now. I have owned the golf r dsg tuned. Focus rs tuned on e85 and type r and the Honda Is the best car to drive out of all of them hands down. Yes it’s slightly slower in a straight line but I like to take It on a twisty mountain road and I decimates everything. It’s nicer to drive and more comfortable than the golf. Focus was a horrendous place to be.

I wouldn’t doubt this car is fun to drive. Just can’t be seen in one.

People in this post are retarded. Comparing 0-100km times with AWD cars.

THE CIVIC IS A FWD PLATFORM. COMPARE IT TO OTHER FWD PLATFORMS. If you actually wanna see which company did it better. As a consumer you can argue about what you should choose between a FWD hatchback and a RWD Sports car. But they ARE NOT the same thing.

So, Given the fact that the Civic Type R is a version of the FWD Platform Civic, that you can also take on a track, it is THE BEST example of such a car. PERIOD.

And I am ONLY considering its performance on track. If you count in other factors like reliability, services, interior space, comfort, seating position, aftermarket support, price, and cost of maintainance etc, the Civic DEATROYS ALL COMPETITION.

That's the sad truth you can't understand.
