I'd take a CTR in addition to the S2000...

 

O... i've just notice that the new JDM civic type R has 215hp .... and the UK version has only 200hp..

 

that civic looks like a ford focus on streroids

"...It has a good 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds against the Civic's 6.2..."

Where in the heck did they find an s2000 that does 0-60 in 4.5 seconds?

 

I had no idea the new Civic was that heavy! My Type R Integra weighs 2,550!

The S2k should easily lap quicker in the dry with a competent, motivated pilot.

 

who gives a flying crap about what any car will do in the wet.....xcept brits 'cause thats what u have to drive in.

think about it.........him, that reynard protoype F1 CAR would have beat the pants off that yugo if they wer'nt
driving in 3 inches of mud.

precisely!!! so a FWD car has better grip in traction limited situations, doh. it's still built ass-backwards for
experiencing the art and science of car control. FWD car can never be a performance car worth owning, no matter if is faster than a rear driver......it's pointless.

 

"FWD car can never be a performance car worth owning, no matter if is faster than a rear driver......it's pointless."

Hmmm. That's a little harsh. I've given rides in my ITR Type R that left the rider wide eyed and weak kneed. It will run with a stock E36 M3 on track.

 

who the hell is going to race on a wet rainy day anyway, lets get real

 

You're kidding, right?

Nearly every race series on the planet, except NHRA, NASCAR, and IRL, race in the rain.
