I'll believe the Civic R is coming once I'm driving it on VIR. Until then, it's only a myth.

Jason- who thinks that a Civic Type R would like nice next to the DC2

We already got a new Civic R, not bad by all accounts, nothing as raw as a Teg 1 but 'stock' times are very close. Not sure bout the gear change mounted on the Dash. The new shape Teg isnt coming to UK, something about too close a market for both models.

Hopefully the RSX-R wont be a souped-up Type S and the CTR wont be a souped-up SI!

I believe the RSX-R will be here end of 2003. I doubt the CTR though.

It seems like the editors of evo hate the new CTR. Its been beaten in almost every group road test - from cars ranging from the Clio 172 all the way down to the Mini Cooper Works (130ps)..

ceas..

What do you mean by 'Teg 1'? If I recall from an article I read in CAR last year, the DC2 R would have been the second generation Integra available in the UK because the first generation was released there briefly.

So you're saying the ITR isn't just a souped-up GS-R?
