I love race-y looking cars like the Evo IX, but this shit is beyond ridiculous. Not even Honda's own fan base is this tasteless. Is all this aero really the only way to make a FWD car as fast as it's similarly priced competitors?
Daniel Brown
No, Honda just knows that their audience are ricers.
Jackson Anderson
I love the styling of it. I think it looks great.
I wish more manufactueres would be more daring and didn't offer a body style that looks like every other commuter car.
Landon Parker
See, the mistake you're making is assuming that this is being made for any of us. You're growing old, just like we all Are, and are simply out of tune with what the new generation wants. Accept this fact and the future will be easier to handle for you

Toyota took that criticism to heart a little bit too much and they redesigned all of their cars to be the edgiest thing possible.
Not good

Jason Moore
They went a little too aggressive with the edges. If that suv was toned down a bit it wouldn't look that bad.
Aiden Hernandez
It looks like its gonna leave fucking crop circles everywhere it goes.
Dominic Turner
Agreed. My dad has the 2010 and I never liked it because it looked so round like an egg. Now it's a cheese grater or something.
Something in between, please. Toyota. Please listen.
Chase Gray
All the people who were 19 during the ricer age are now experiencing a mid-life crisis and want to relive their younger years but don't have the motivation or energy to actually put the work in like they did back then. So Honda did it for them.
Benjamin Robinson
the car looks dope as fuck
stay btfo boomer fag
Luis Howard
>makes it look more like a crossover >yeah man it looks different than other commuter cars
You do realize that's not the point of the R type civics? They're supposed to be a commuter car that whoops ass. Too many modern cars are trying to like more than they really are. Just look at the new corollas.
Connor Diaz
show me your vape

Toyota. Opinion discarded
Nathan Smith
except for the front seats i think it looks great.
Asher White
I'm curious about people who think this looks nice.
You do realise all those vents are fake? What do you think about that? What about the fact that it looks like some sort of crossover?
Wyatt Sullivan
honestly don't care about fake vents, that kinda stuff has been around forever. It's just one less place that can get rock chips
I think the proportions of the car are good, especially with those wide fenders.Maybe that's why I think it looks good, I'm not some autist that tunnels in on one or two features of the car and look at it as a whole.
Noah Morgan

It's awful. I swear on my life It is the long wheelbase version of a Nissan Juke Nismo that went through a pencil sharpener... Stop for minute. Do you really want this car to be the future of Honda? Of the Type R nameplate of all the cars that came before it?
Bentley Hill
I know I've seen that styling somewhere before....
Kevin Foster
Have you ever thought of yourself as a ricer?
Evan Hernandez
The punchline is that none of it is functional.
Gabriel Anderson
>wrong wheel drive >wrong wheeelsss drive
the end is near
Aiden Harris
I just wish I could put my finger on where I know that shape from...
Nicholas Powell
Yes I do. I actually plan on buying it because of the looks alone.
Zachary Allen
nope i just like cars, doesn't matter where they come from or what wheel drive they are
pic related, another car that I like that has fake vents, I'm sure some autist was complaining about them when the car was first released kek
Thomas Morris
It isn't. Veeky Forums is mostly mid 20s white male which is a minority now. Honda is marketing to the new generation of latinos which is who is going to be buying this garbage.
John Collins
I'm not against fake vents but the whole styling of that car is kinda "fake". The whole point of the civic was to not show off and go as fast as possible while being practical. With things like 20" rims, 40,000 fake vents and a handful of spoilers it seems to me that that car has lost much of what it was originally intended o be. Now I guess they're marketing to people who want their cars to look like their vapes or electric razors.
Dylan Sanchez
welcome to Veeky Forums everybody
damn this place has gone downhill fast (which is also coincidently the only place that civic can go fast as well).
Zachary Bell
>wahhh someone on a Mongol basket weaving forum likes a car I don't like
Take your whinyness someplace else and fuck off
Jacob Fisher
I'm only 22 mate
Young people today are too poor to afford to spend 40k on a new car
Carson Robinson
Latino's can't afford anything other than base model (used)
Owen Carter

really lol
Isaiah Anderson
>complaining about somebody not liking their car >calling someone else whiny
I'd be angry if I'd be making monthly payments on that atrocity as well friendo :>)
Dylan Cooper
>posting picture of a heavily modified car trying to compare it with a stock one
What even is this? Are you showing me that someone managed to put a wing on a civic? I don't get it. The civic was intended to be light and fun. As a comparison: >eg hatch weighs around 2200lbs >FK hatch weighs 3000lbs and looks like a minivan
Christopher Stewart
if only it were a coupe
Jayden Kelly
It looks great in profile but this is just silly. Also for reference here is the styling on the BTCC Civics which look way more reasonable.
Carter Ward
And what cars are there that are lighter than it in production? >Miata >BRZ Each magnitudes slower, considering they both make around 200 HP/2,800 lbs compared to 300 HP/3,000 lbs
Connor Allen
In the end, it would need to be faster in order to get away with all those fake vents and shit
Jose Butler
The yaris is 2300lbs. Can't wait till that gets the sport pack. Abarth is 2300ish as well. 4c is 2400. I'd consider 3000 lbs pretty heavy but yet again I daily an aw11 so everything seems massive. this looks wayyy better.
Brandon Lopez
>yaris Until it gets a sport pack it's not a competitor tho. >Abarth Are also unreliable as shit, there's a reason I can pick one up for under 10k with under 100k miles. >4C Starts at 50,000 dollars... 15k more than the MSRP of the Civvy R. My daily is 2,500 lbs, it's not like I don't know what lightweight is, but for a new fucking full sized car it's pretty lightweight.
Cameron Nguyen
So moral of the story is new cars are shit? I agree with that for the most part.
Jaxson Cook
I mean I just don't see the nitpicking about it. Yeah I miss my lightweight cars, but at the same time... Cars have gotten heavier (And slightly lighter occasionally) as time goes on, it's really nothing you can do about it unless you want to ride a motorcycle. 1:1 power to weight ratio is what I look for first in new cars, or as close as it can manage.
Juan Taylor
I also feel like it's worth mentioning that four grown adults can actually fit in that car. Aside from the Yaris you can't do that with any other car in it's weight/performance class. (and the Yaris would have a lot more trouble) At that point you'd be looking at an STi or full sized car that weighs in at atleast 500 lbs heavier.
Jaxson Ward
I think the "problem" with new cars is that it isn't made with an artist's hand anymore. It's made in wind tunnels, CAD programs, and excel sheets.
This leads go a weird design, but overall better performance. Function and Form. That is the difference between the cars now and before.
