Thanks Blow Dog,

Brings back memories of my last one and funnily enough the scooby dealer I p/x it to last June still has it ! - where`s the phone !!!!

I would rate that car as probably the best driving machine I`ve had - for now - the wife is running in the P1 so we`ll have to see when I get home !

Cheers

PS - are you a Honda owner ??

I like this car!
I had a '97 Civic 1.6 VTI and loved the performance,handling, brakes, build quality and its anonymous looks.

I recon this is a winner!

Lovely, and reading the article, it is going to be a huge leap forward over the current one, particullaly in handling, which was superb to begin with, so combined with sub 6 secs 0-60, and building on the current car, it should be fantastic.
They've redeveloped everything, even more than I could have wished for.
Not that the current one isnt fantastic already, but with improved LSD, 17" wheels, 6 speed, etc, I am definitely going to have one.
I have spoken to Litchfield Imports, who will give me some details on costs once they become available in Japan, or Ill wait until next year when they hopefully become officially available here.
One very happy Honda boy, even like the looks, and it even gives the new Scoob a good run for its money in the old straight line speed stakes.

Sweet !

Glad they've changed the headlights, almost BMW-esque now with their under-lens cutouts

Shaolin, re the dash, it may evolve somewhat, as this car is the prototype, so there should be a few "home comforts" added to make the dash more complete.
Not a lot though, just a few, still reported to follow the stripped out Type-R standard.
