THis one here.... 2015 or 2016 model year maybe? I will ask when it will actually be on sale here. It is the coming Full model change for the civic.

I think all these Jalopnik posts need to be the best 20 , not best 10
Sweet lord, man, what do you not understand about what I am saying. It is already approved. The next Type R will be in the USA. Europe and USA will have the same platform underneath. HRAO (honda r&d in raymond ohio) is already crash testing the next civic with the turbo motor in it for US certification! I saw…
I will take that bet, and raise you your car! Mark my words, the new Civic is a NEW global platform and Type R WILL be sold here along side the Civic Si. Type R 289hp 2.0L turbo,, Si = 1.5L 200hp turbo.
I KNOW with out a doubt that the Type R is being made for US market, US crash tests and US gasoline. US everything! WHat you say is true for the old platform, but not this one. Engineers at the Honda R&D facility in Raymond Ohio are making sure the Type R will be sold in the USA>
False. The new platform is World wide! (Yes the old one was very different) BUT This Civic is a Full model change. Type R will be US market!
Next Civic Si = 1.5L turbo 200hp USA market
It won't look like that, but the Type R is coming to the states! Mark my words, it WILL be sold here!
3.5L V6. DOHC Twin Turbo. 75 deg bank angle, 500+HP. I have been told the intake manifold for it looks suspiciously similar to the big plenum like the old F1 turbo V6's of yesteryear....
seriously!!!
I drove my first AMG just the other week. I didn't really get to hoon it much, just one blast up an on ramp, and those V8's are divine!
Make that picture the 2nd generation M coupe and it is a freaking twin!!
Please, in no way do I mean to be a smart ass at this point. FOrgive me if you think that I am being one. I truly do not mean to be. HOWEVER... Commuting in a shifterkart, ( let's assume glass smooth fresh black top roads every where) WOULD BE FREAKING AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I tried very hard not getting involved in this OP's troll's fest, but in actual handling of a car, so many things are more important than a car's cg, (although that is a great place to start.) Yes the WRX drive train layout is great for what it is, and inherently better in terms of c.g., yaw moment, ect, than its…
I need a much bigger picture of this for my desktop!
Make mine the pretty dark green please!
Where does this plug into my Demon Carb?? I don't see any plugs on my distributor, either.... Mopar or no car!
Soichiro Honda should have been on this list.
The P1 is maybe one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen..
I want one in the beautiful deep dark green. Absolutely gorgeous!
