Can't believe the Civic Type R came last - Page 2

Lompi · 04-28-2011, 06:31 PM

Yeah Euro Type R is a mistake in my opinion :P

Capt Canuck · 04-30-2011, 03:36 PM

Meh, looking at that list it should come in last.
Not fast + mediocre handling = last

luiibar89 · 05-06-2011, 09:43 PM

the euro type-r is just a complete embarasment in my opinion i seen the same episode of top gear its ugly heavy slow etc. .... its ashame they neglected to put in the JDM type-R i would have REALLY like to have seen that

m_shake · 06-10-2011, 07:49 PM

Civic euro r's never were and never will be a REAL type r. That thing is a ugly pos with even uglier rear suspension(if you can even can a torsion beam suspension) Top Gear(i think) reviewed this and were like how the hell did they make the fn2 just plain fail compared to the ep3 euro r

^ yes!! the ep3 type-r is a dream, it's what turned me onto getting a k20,(ex h22 driver) got a ride in one while in europe.

abctilly · 06-18-2011, 01:08 AM

The K20A3 ruined the EP3 for me... sooo close but no cigar!

nloizzo · 07-17-2011, 02:55 AM

Interior is so much nicer

iamchris · 07-17-2011, 02:59 PM

the euro type r is a terd. Most of us new this. Thats why I hate when I see guys on here ***** we didn't get the euro type r. We don't want it, its inferior to the US si.

Honda Civic Type R - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Everyone knocks the ep3

one person says the K20A3 is balls, then the rest of his ****-riding posse chimes in and agrees.

I don't get the point of this being "stickied". After all, it's European made Honda-- LOL. Honda of America would come right behind Japan's... Still, need to bring in the Type R mang!!!

kidari · 09-03-2011, 04:35 PM

Not surprised by looking at the competition, that euro-r is terrible.

TravRSX · 10-13-2011, 01:40 PM

Type R ain't what it used to be. Sad. Still looks nice though. Not going to beat a GTR on the track though... No way. ff is just not ideal for a track car.

Disagree that the R hatch looks nice, but love the Japanese R sedan.
We did get a bad ass car for a while- the Integra Type R

Why IS this a sticky Lord Obert?

ghettoracer · 02-05-2012, 09:22 AM

Everyone else has stepped up while Honda has kinda rested on its laurels I think.

pks17 · 02-29-2012, 03:03 AM

They Type-R was never really all that great. It was always a high revving light weight tin can. Now the competition is tougher, and theres alot more to choose from.
Not everybody likes small n/a motors. Alot of people are into turbo'd engines, or larger displacement.

***Geovone*** · 03-03-2012, 08:58 PM

I'd like a hatch

BinG · 04-03-2012, 12:37 PM

Poor integra type R LOL

BP 2010 · 04-03-2012, 06:44 PM

FN2 Type R wasnt as good as it should of been. I hear Mugen got the suspension working to decent levels, honda should of refreshed the car with that kind of suspension
