I still can't get excited about the new ctr, as much as I want too

The price is the only thing that doesnt excite me, with those upgraded alloys and sat nav, i bet the price for that is pushing on £20k

ste_bla · 11 Apr 2007 at 00:27

Always wondered how easy and whats the cost to replace the exhausts, any ideas?

Needs some nice big red brembos to fill the wheels, otherwise looks stunning. Big improvement lookswise over the breadvan

Only £13k over there, will be interesting if someone gets the model report and it looks like the DC5 replacement.

I think sat nav is £1,200 on it's own :eek:

Looks nice from the front. The shot from the rear made me throw up a little inside my mouth.
Take it for a spin and see how it compares to yours.

The new Civic is ugly as sin IMO, previous generations looked so much nicer (in type R guise at least)

Did your dad HAVE to choose the same colour :rolleyes:

Virdi · 11 Apr 2007 at 07:27

Your dad is cool

Very nice car!

I actually like the older one. The new Civic Type R does look quite nice. But i still think the last one is the best looking.

djjuk · 11 Apr 2007 at 09:12

Thought I was getting to like these, but then saw one in the flesh yesterday.

Sorry to say but it just does not look 'right' to me, too many sharp angles or what I am not sure :confused:

But it just looked wrong.

Meant to be a good drive if you like that VTEC thang though

merlin · 11 Apr 2007 at 09:13

Decat, induction & Spoon LSD & that car will be off the shizang.

:cool:

tom_nieto · 11 Apr 2007 at 10:30

Seeing it next to the older version I absolutely love it! I've not been a massive fan of the civic thus far, but that photo makes it look awesome and agressive.

D4VE · 11 Apr 2007 at 10:35

Nice! Red too which looks great :cool:

zetec452 · 11 Apr 2007 at 10:39

I love the new Civic. Fantastic car.

GFX707 · 11 Apr 2007 at 11:12

LOL for some reason when I saw the second pic the Transformers theme tune popped into my head....

You just made a conversation about cool cars sound like a gay man shoe shopping.. i hope your proud..

Spent all day shopping around for presents for my gf

How about i re-phrase...... Mate those rims are BOSH, splitters make it look more like a jap GT car, and i bet it goes like a rocket

sigma · 11 Apr 2007 at 12:05

I can't stand the new one

much prefer your car.

gareth.e · 11 Apr 2007 at 12:11

the more i see both theses CTR's the more they grow on me...

i thought both were fugly when i first saw them

now i love the older one, and think the new ones 'ok'

£18600 for the GT
£1400 for the Sat nav
£850 for the diffuser (front and rear)
£950 for the wheels
£100 for the mats

£21900

:eek:

The only thing saved on is that Milano is a base colour

Trying to decide if I like the diffuser, I think the rear one may suit my car (black)... hmm
