Any other New 2017 Civic Type R Owners?

So far it has been really comfortable. The steering response is very precise and honestly even for an economy car the interior is not bad at all except for the rear seats which has cheap material and no real luxury features which I am ok with. Overall the suspension feel is very similar to the ATS-V I had which is a good thing. I have not tested the power yet as I am still breaking it in but I suspect it should do well for a daily. Not too over powering. Also this thing garners a lot of attention especially in my town. The design is polarizing and so far I am enjoying it.

I like most aspects of the Type R, but has the aftermarket come up with a better replacement rear wing ?, I'm not liking the rear wing at all.

For CTR owners. When you went to the dealership, were you able to test drive it before you were able to make the purchase and is the car what you thought it would be or more then you expected? Ive been thinking about selling my AP2 for one since they came out.

I didn't test drive before I bought mine, however I did a lot of reading of other owners. I figured if I didn't like the car I could sell it and not loose too much. With that said the car has exceeded my expectations. It does not have a ton of luxury features but it does have enough to keep you happy. The thing that surprised me the most was ride quality and the handling. Its a hoot to drive and has decent power for the streets. It won't beat any M3 or Hellcats but at this point in my life that is just fine. The things I wish they did differently is mostly cosmetic mainly putting better materials in the back seats and doors maybe similar to the front seats. If you need a bigger more comfortable car then I would trade the S2k for one but I still like my s2k for the vert experience.
