306hp and 295 lb-ft torque.
No word on curb weight yet (not a great sign).

10/10 will test drive. Any idea on price? Think it'll come in under $35K, or no chance in hell? Isn't the engine manufactured in Ohio? I figured the Type R for the US would be manufactured in Ohio... Oh well. Last edited by mazeroni; 03-07-2017 at 11:07 AM. |

That has got to be one of the ugliest, pre riced, over the top, F&F group focused vehicles I have ever seen. The design team obviously consisted of 40 people that said "How about we add this?" and a leader that had no ability to say "Enough".

I really do consider myself a "less is more" kinda guy, but I love the R. Much like the Ford Raptor (I know, odd comparison), I feel like you can buy it and never have to touch it.

And I guarantee someone will pay >$45k for one of the first ones. Quote:
But if I had all the money in the world, I would 'de-rice' this sucker and make it my family grocery getter car, buy a set of wheels and tires for it and beat on it every time my FR-S needed a break. Make it look as close as possibly to that Type-R hatch FWD posted above, white wheels and all. I would also totally pull off the Type-R badges. For anyone about to post: "blah hondurr fail-wheel drive" This is why some of us like Hondas, if you didn't see these videos making the rounds yesterday.

What a disgrace. Now, the new powertrain put into the old mid 90s hatch...yes please! MacPherson struts up front is super disappointing. Honda cutting corners again, still using an inferior suspension design.
