I'm just bothered by the big stupid rear bumper, now.
 
that Type R prototype made the current one look a lot better imo. The prototype doesn't look like a track monster.
 
I've just noticed the paint job...how do they do it? It looks like brushed aluminum or something. Really neat.
 
Did all the Japanese manufacturers get together and agree that the red pinstriping would signify performance models?

It's an odd shape in profile. Not quite a hatch, not quite a sedan/saloon. I can only resort to the term @Famine introduced me to: the shatchback.

To be fair, it's a hot hatch trend that's been around since 1976 or whenever the Mk1 Golf GTI arrived.
 
Why is Honda trying to sell us Subaru hatchbacks? I'm confused.
 
So the new Type R is an impreza hatchback bred with a '11 Scion TC?
 
I don't like the look of the new Type R much, it looks too boy-racery. Even the normal Civic looks geared towards that market.
 
Looks more Hot Wheels like than anything. Well, I guess they have gone full circle with black and red. Friend of mine in college had one exactly like this:

Put a hood scoop and the new wing from the proto on that bad boy. Guaranteed 50+ hp at the wheel and ACR levels of aero grip.
 
The old WRX STI hatchback was also one of the first things that came to my mind. That's the only WRX STI I never really liked and Honda can do better than this.
 
I do love the back but the front seems to be slightly mismatched to it. I does look so much like a Subaru creation!
 
Few days later and i still can't get used to this design lol.

If you all look at the previous Type-Rs, all of them looked like they do belong on the road track or touge. Even the newest one that's already out now looks like hot hatch.

Now this one, it looks like Honda tries to advertise mugen bodykit for the new civic. It looks like a high performance car.
 
2017 Honda Civic Si fills the performance gap between Sport and Type R

To do this, Honda has equipped the Si with a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder. The company didn't reveal output, but considering Conrad's statement, it's probably be safe to say it will make somewhere between 205 horsepower (the output of the previous Si) and 306 horsepower (the output of the previous Type R). That engine will send power through a six-speed manual transmission and a limited-slip differential. Also part of the Si package will be active steering and dampers, plus a high-performance tire option.

Nissan finally announces the Sentra Nismo, and then Honda quickly one-ups them.
 
I was thinking to myself that the Honda Civic Si was going to look more impressive than the Sentra in terms of performance and it does.
 
Power output is meaningless without knowing what it weighs and by the looks of it, it weighs way too much.
