I can't decide if it looks like it was designed by either a child or an an old woman trying to make what she thinks what a 13 yr old would find appealing.
If I could choose one word to describe it, that would be embarrassing.
If you look at the white Civic Type R, it literally looks like a Gundam!

I honestly feel like Honda literally looked at the trends of the tuning world and noticed that that the number 1 trend on tuner cars are obnoxious body kits such as RocketBunny and Liberty, so they decided to incorporate that into their Civic Type R. That's probably a more legit reason for their design aside from having a child drawing a race car on paper and unleashing their imagination

But I couldn't agree with you more. One word. Embarrassing.

I'm gonna take this a further step and say this Civic Type R almost looks like TJ Hunt's abomination of a BRZ. (Opinion-based)

That and the fact that cars are now continuing to be bloated with safety features.
