not too bad, although the rear wheel looks incredibly small compared to the rear 1/4 panel... then again I'm spoiled by fender flares and rwd.

Ummmm...yeah...I'll take "hideous" for $400, Alex.
There really isn't a single part of that design that works for me.

umm i thinking of a word
.... ...... ......... oh yeah... gay Thank god honda isn't releasing it in the us (never thought i'd say that about a type r vehicle), they know us americans hate their shitty spaceship styling, and they know that for the price it's a damn rip off compared to other normal cars out there. I'm just glad i won't have to see that goose egg on wheels rolling around my neighborhood.

What motor does it have in it?
I don't see why everyone calls it gay... I think it looks good. Better then all of the modified civics I've ever seen and its stock. |

well that makes it less gay, but still gay nonetheless. I bet it's still a porker just like the FG civic Si. They need to make civics 2300 lbs again.

there's no way in hell a civic is going to have as much or more hp than the s2000.

This design is appalling by far. I understand the whole idea behind aerodynamic but for God's sake every new car looks like a damned space ship.
One plus I noticed is they made the hood a little longer relating to the 90s generation (but it's still not nearly as horizontal). The civics out there right now.. the hood is seriously like 2-3.5 feet from front to windshield.
