I really didn't like the front end of the new Civic, but having watched a few of the Nurburgring spy videos of the new CTR, I'm surprised to say I quite like the front clip on the new CTR!

Thought about STi or Golf R but I think this is the way to go if you can wait it out.

I'm back in the Honda game. I decided that I'm not likely to jump back into an S2000 for practicality reasons, but I put a deposit down on a 2022 Honda Civic Si in Blazing Orange Pearl. It almost looks like Imola Orange from the S2000. It's sitting in the showroom as we speak and has not been test-driven by anyone, so not long of a wait to get it. I test drove an Si last week and really enjoyed the experience, pretty good car overall when you consider the sum of its parts. I was seriously considering a BRZ but my Subaru dealer estimated a delivery date of July 2022 , too long to wait and I have a trade as part of the deal. Dealers are clamoring for trades and trade-in values are pretty high, so it was an easy decision for the Honda Civic Si.

That's awesome, congrats!
I know the 11th gens received a lot of backlash when first revealed, but I think they're going to have a huge potential in the aftermarket.
Pretty impressive what a simple Hondata tune can do to these factory turbo hondas.

Yeah when I first seen the Civic internet pics I thought it was a move in the wrong direction. Then I thought the performance numbers were a letdown, and the adaptive dampers were not carried over. Then I seen some in person and thought the design was quite nice and much better than what I saw in pics. After test-driving one I really enjoyed it , good overall car , motor is strong enough, handling is really good, lots of room and comfy, nice interior. The potential with Hondata is a pretty good value and easy upgrade if someone wants more power. Seeing the car in person and driving it really changed my mind.

Of course, I can't leave well enough alone and would do Hondata Flashpro, bigger rear sway bar, and 200 UTQG summer tires.
well done, sir!
