Absolutely. It looks appropriately boy racer for a Type R, not a caricature of one like the current car.

I like both current gen and last gen. They're both likeable in their own way

Yeah it is subtle but aggressive, which I definitely prefer. The front bumper and headlights have a bit of JDM Integra Type R design influences I think, very cool.

Okay, so I’m not the only one that’s seeing some Integra in there.

I liked the reviews of the previous gen, but the looks were a bit too much for me. This one I’d actually drive, especially if it drives as good as the last one.

This is going to be a great car! Love the Civics new interior, sleaker lift back style, still same great seats.. I just hope they tune the muffers and maybe give it an active exhaust. If th y can make sound as good as the Veloster N I will really consider one.

Honestly I hate the new civic front ends. They just read as "car." The previous gen actually stands out; I'd rather have something be divisive and stands out with panache than some faux attempt at "maturity" or generalization or w/e.

I feel the same way.
The last one is more distinctive, if a bit boy racerish and somewhat overstyled.

The current one is more refined, mature, mini-accord, but its also more dull and boring.

But im not in this market. If i had Type R money for something, i might as well just step up to a luxury brand.
