As stated before that's the Europe Only (but I'm sure Japan at some point) Civic Type R. What does that have in common at all with the CRX besides having two (three if you count the hatch) doors?

I hope thats not there new CRX. I think that they need to get rid of these round cars. go back to the old style and make more of a square car.

that **** looks pretty mean to me.

too bad power to weight ratio is probably a joke and a half. if you notice they are quick to point out it has 200bhp but terrified to even take a stab at the weight.

i think you guys are being a little harsh to it though.... if you notice in this first picture here, compared to the two people, the wheelbase looks pretty damn small...

if you go by the weight of the current euro hatch, very similar type of car:

1192 kilograms = 2627.91017 pounds

ouch.

figure, 200 bhp whats that at the wheels, 175?

Your Power:Weight Ratio is 1 : 15

given the same 175 whp in lets say, an 1988 crx hf:

Your Power:Weight Ratio is 1 : 10.3

overall id have to say, i like the cars styling.

however performance wise id say that amount of horsepower just doesnt cut it....

thats not considering how torque is involved especially with that much more weight to move especially before vtec hits, down in what we all know of as "no mans land" where a crx can still pull because it doesnt weigh much.

im talking about b18c/b16a's here for the most part.

i dunno. its definatley better looking then the EP. just a shame its such a hog...

id be VERY interested to see what mugen does once they get a hold of a couple of these.

yeah it is defanetly a new car look, honestly i love my 91 hatch and eg's look great i wasnt a fan of the ek's but now i love them, maybe this will just have to grow on me to. I dont think it looks to hideous but it looks like there trying to hard to but a spin on the civic, but this is the euro civic type r dont think we will have to see this on american streets.

I think it would look nice black and alittle boxier, just my two cents.

and?

this is just another stupid "look new crx thread".

its just a UK civic. shown MONTHS ago. no specs, no description. they couldnt even say if the rear suspension was torsion beam or not. so no different than the regular UK civic that is already being sold except 2 doors. how does a "type-r" have the lowest end suspension?

I see. We'll I figured everybody else has these worthless threads, I figured I would try my hand at creating one. Ironicly, it moved faster than any of the tech based threads I've created recently.
