Why pay more money for a heavier, slower car?

There's actually a lot to love about the Type R, unfortunately there's just as much to hate if that makes sense

Nice! Lucky that Honda dealership surrounded the car with a the red lines and all. The Honda dealership I work at decides to just throw in the type r with the rest of the ugly cars. You have little children jumping in and out of the car and kicking the seats and all. Another type R...destroyed. What a shame and big L for my dealer.

At least Honda tried this time. And there's probably not much they could have done aside from take a huge loss on each unit to give it more go-fast or sacrifice heritage (and likely a bit of fun) with AWD. |

Look at those tiny little rubber band tires! 245/30 on 20" wheels! I can't imagine that 30 series sidewall rides very nice.

Darth Maul would have loved that black and red one.

But I totally agree, one of the things I really don't like about the car is the 20" wheel choice. |

I could be wrong, but I thought they had went with 20's to help deal with torque steer on a 300HP FWD
