"The CR specific interior features unique cloth seating with yellow stitching, special aluminum shifter knob and faux carbon fiber trim."
Of course...that is what every racer wants!

Yeah I was really hoping that Honda would do this right. As someone who does actually track their car, and someone who works on scca club racing cars, this is more show car circuit than track day car. It's hideous to boot.
Bad Honda.
And with nothing changed on the frame or chassis itself, just a different rear STB with 4 mounting points, plus the suspension changes, etc, there's nothing that makes it unique. You could not easily reproduce the improvments made to an ITR for example, you can EASILY reproduce a CR without the ugly ass body and ugly ass seats.
I like the black exhaust and cluster though I guess.. radio door is decent too. Cloth itself is great, if it only didn't have the yellow in the middle....

ehh..... 
not much of an improvement in performance. I believe my car is better tuned and suited for Track duty than the CR.
Ugly front lip and wing... I believe the Mugen is better looking and probably just as functional.

I don't care, now that I've looked at it a bit, I'd rock it. 
Besides, we bitch too much and Honda might just quit attempts altogether to make a performance car. I say "Thanks Honda, you might have missed the mark, but thanks for trying. Honestly".

Buying something just so Honda doesn't stop is sending the wrong message...
I won't buy one at this point, not unless something hasn't been released yet. It's just incredibly ugly and has nothing special or unique done to it. (my opinion on the ugly, a fact on the other)
