The Type S is is a 2008 with the exterior package of the CR (same wing, front spoiler, and rims) Everything else is same as the base 2008.
Check this link for the spec

i dont think you are getting the point, you can buy aftermarket part for the s2k and ulitmately beat the CR(it just me or it's a types int eh video?) but do offer what the CR has with a factory warrany and all the shebang is something, i think, incredible.

you have to consider the design limitation OEM mfg has, it has to be civilizes enough to all the potential buyer yet wild enough to get 36k out of their bank.

how is it not rawer than an ap1? look at the the added rigidity, suspension setting and all that stuff.

the more i look into it the more i like the CR.

to the OP: thanks for eh video
Exactly. 3secs quicker without any more power is amazing.

Some of that is in the tires, some of that is in the suspension, but I think a lot of that is in the aerodynamic changes. That's impressive.

Hate all you want, but those are all functional changes. I used to diss the CR, but the more I think about it, the more amazing I find it.

I was just double checking the same thing and going to post about that. He clearly downshifts into the red.

Those turns in the beginning were crazy. I don't think I would ever have the balls to drive like that in an elevated track
