one thing that just blows my mind is the fact that you get 198 hp and 142 tq, which is not noticeable compared to the usdm si, and you get 1970's volkswagen suspension, or mini van suspension, which ever you want to call it, and you pay 19k euros which equals to 27,291.54 us dollars. i guess you guys just pay the extra 6k for the badass dash you guys get. im not hating on the fn2, i just think for that price tag and what you actually get is just wow... total foot in the arsss

couldn't find THAT, but i found this:

(198 hp/148 kW) at 7,500 rpm and 193 N·m (142 lb·ft) of torque at 5,600 rpm. It runs on 225/40 R18 Y88 Bridgestone Potenza RE050A tyres, while optional 19" Rage alloys run on Yokohama Advan Sport 225/35 ZR19 88Y tyres. The car has a curb weight of 1,267 kg (2,790 lb).

I like the interior appointments, the outside could take some time to get used to but its not terrible. How does it drive (handling, accelerating and braking)?

Funny how not a single person pointed the OP to the PICTURE THREAD. FN2 owners must hold a special place in everybody's heart around here.

See the 8th for a DIY on the door parts. See an upholster for the seats.

Cosmetics are subjective. I'm a fan of the "hot hatch" look. But most of America seems to dislike it.

However, the important points seem to have been overlooked by everyone discussing the looks. Holy crap are those things expensive for what you get.

The rear suspension, like that of the Fit/Jazz, was done for cargo space. Suspension design for interior space does not a performance car make.

I like it, but the only things that bug me are its weight and price. the weight decreases the performance, which doesnt match the price. But you know in America someone here will buy it nonetheless. Like i seen a Mugen Si the other day. Way back in 1998 when i started getting into the scene a 30K Civic from the dealer never crossed my mind....

boy times have changed
