30k? 4 door? Eh, I dunno...I guess I've lost that loving feeling for the hype R. What does it run in the 1/4 to make it so special? Does it handle any better than any other fwd car? What do you get for that $30k?

The chassis is the stiffest Honda chassis built to date.
Suzuka Circuit, the Type R's Spiritual Home
To ensure that we fully understood the Type R's elevated position in a domestic lineup riddled with ho-hum family-oriented minivans, Honda invited us to drive the car at Suzuka Circuit. This Honda-owned facility is near many of the company's largest assembly plants and has hosted the Formula 1 Grand Prix of Japan until this year.
Suzuka is Honda's spiritual home, 3.6 miles of asphalt where the engineers come to gauge the goodness of their most ambitious cars and motorcycles. For Honda, this is hallowed ground, where back in 1990 company founder Sochiro Hondo himself invited Formula 1 champion Ayrton Senna to drive the NSX, the first midengine supercar from Japan.
Suzuka's magical figure-8 layout features long straightaways, high-speed bends, tricky double-apex corners and a notorious series of high-speed esses. Once Honda disconnects the Civic Type R's government-mandated governor, which limits the top speed of every car in this country to 115 mph, we're free to push the car to its limit.

Re: New CTR at our dealer
if you didnt get my point on my last post, ill put it to you this way. Around Motegi, one of the more technical tracks in Japan, the R in stock form was only a min slower than the NSX-R, also in stock form.
