Honda took too long to launch, they should have released this at least 2 years ago.

That is what I read in context of the clip...

Honda didnt get traction off the line.

Lol, the type R isn't slow, it's just late to the START

No matter how good you are, you are going to struggle to out launch AWD DSG and LC , with a high power FWD.

Not everything is about drag racing

^ lol was waiting for your input buddy

How's your CTR hunting going?

 

[Type RSA]

Not good. Still trying to sell my Jeep. So not going anywhere at the moment. But it will come

That rear bumper is too busy for my liking. Or I don't know, the car is just so damn hideous.

One of major appeal or possible lack of it for the new CTR is its extreme boy racer look.

Unlike a G7 GTI/R or S3 this one won't be super happy with the traffic-laden school run...lol

There's the new Focus RS. Much much better looking boy-racer

 

[FiestaST]

Looks are subjective ito of what's more extreme looking. CTR vs RS.

I think most would agree out of all the many hot/super hot hatches currently available the new CTR & new Focus RS are the most extreme boy racer looking.

Interesting to see what Opel brings to the table with the new OPC & of course the hot hatch masters; Renaultsport; with the new Megane RS.

The boy racers, i.e ricer (just Google it if you don't know what a ricer is.) will mess with the look until they think it's kool anyway.
