I agree with the majority of the comments on PH - this is what UK drivers would like! Also very reminiscent of the ATR, which I've always liked.

 

That looks so much nicer than the EU version.

That looks function over design, where the EU one is the wrong way round.

 

i want one.. and 4 doors..

need to checkout import prices I guess

 

Looks like an evolution of the DC5 ITR to me (which is of course no bad thing).

So, does anyone know what IS the rationale for fobbing the European market off with a different car? I'd have thought it made far more sense just to have one design common to both markets.....

 

Nice. I'm sure it'll prove a popular import.

It looks a lot the the EVO X to me.

 

We get 'our' Civic Type R because it helps with the sales of the lower models. The Civic is a mass production car, the Civic 'saloon' would not sell very well in Europe hence we don't get it.

I hate the new Euro CTR, and think that this is much nicer, but as long as the Euro Civic exists we will be left with the fat minging klingon heffer that we were given.

 

no moff, don't hold back say what you really mean

 

I think that looks really smart, and the dash seems to be more sensible too

 

Looks like a vauxhall belmont - i.e. an astra with a boot. It looks desperately unhappy in those clothes.

 

It does rile me
