Honda now trying to compete with the EVO and STi and falling well short.

Lets put a wing, wheels, suspension on FWD family sedan and see how many people we can sucker into buying one.

Honda pulls the NSX, leaves the S2000 pretty much untouched and give us a civic disquised as a sports car.

We all laughed at the SRT-4. This is even worse.

Thanks honda.

Because it is generally pure cheese.

This is so typical of honda of America....... They just don't get it.

We all laughed ?? The SRT-4 was (still is) a stellar performer for $20K. This Civic looks to be typical "ALL SHOW, NO GO" where the SRT-4 had the balls to back things up.

Why the sedan and not the coupe?

a $30k Civic with no engine upgrades???

frankly, I'm insulted that Honda thinks they could fool me into buying one

Trust me....there is an ass for every seat...in this case....500 of 'em. Now if they threw the RDX 2.4T into the equation then maybe its something.

O really? I guess they got lucky in being the fastest growing automaker right now?

There's no coupe in Japan. The CTR comes in hatch and sedan form only, and Mugen only makes parts for the sedan I believe since the hatch is UK.

I think it's great Honda is teaming up with Mugen for production street cars, tơo bad they're using the wrong Mugen parts and the wrong car to start this off.

What happened to the Mugen supercharger for the K20 gơod for 300-hp in their Mugen Civic Dominator Concept? While I would still prefer an Evo or STi over a 300-hp FWD Mugen Civic, that would've made a lot more sense with a $30k pricetag.

Don't forget the "Market Adjustment" guys, by then, it'll be in the territory of 4WD turbo 4-doors.
