Civic Type Rr

[m3gtr]

This car is pimp - make no mistake. Ive got a Forester Sti at the moment and thatll be coming back to Oz next April but im already thinking about the next one.

Its a tossup between this Civic and an Evo wagon. It will definitely be one of these two.

the interior is certainly...ummmm... different. but the exterior styling certainly is an acquired taste.... to say the least.

but apart from the dubious styling it would be a cool car.

[shepo]

i want one now.

very JDM

yeah, BB teh bottom interior shot is from the concept car i think.

Its pretty hardcore though... and it DEFINITELY wont be on the SEVS list.

I think they only made 400 of them but if you check goo net, they have 10 or more for sale.

I hope the price drops a little more because they are up at around 45 to 50 thou atm so...

The cooking version Type R is 24thou...so im wondering why this one is double the price.

Shepo, i agree mate - itll be pretty wild. Id like to take one for a testdrive soon.

Any ideas on what this thing will fetch on teh Ozzie market??

Kinda cool but don't like the exterior whatsoever apart from the black wheels

the hatch would look heaps better....thats if it does come in a hatch

wheres the evo wagon pics?

[GTR-32U]

wow its a much better looking car than the civic type R we got..The ugly duckling that thing is..interesting thats its a 4 door also.....very nice

[PL@YER]

Im gonna have to say EVO wagon, the civi.c looks to much like a suzuki liana. Just my 2cents

oh lawd

shoot it!!

[lingeringsoul]

this double type R is so confusing.

I like them both, the bottom one is more keeping in tradition with the hatch and all.

[shepo]

we dont get the sedan one out here.

we just get the hatch that looks like a giant wedge!

but i think i like the sedan more, especially that mugen one.

[Nick033]

looks like a sporty minibus, im sure it will appeal to soccer mums across the globe

[m3gtr]

soccer mums??

wtf?

maybe soccer mums that like 9000 rpm...

[Modena]

Meh too much plastic for my liking. But I guess it will go quick.

Aus gets the Euro version of the civic (bottom red one), they took out the IRS and made it nice and heavy. I would much rather the Japanese version, but the stock suspension is probably a bit stiff for the average joe.

There's actually been an RR going through auction in Kobe for the last three weeks - I'll be there looking at it next week, I'll be curious to see what it's making.

I'd choose an Evo wagon if it was me, but then again, the Evo wagon may eventually make it's way on to the SEVS list by the time you're ready to bring it back...

If you're buying it for your own enjoyment, get the RR, but don't buy it with the aim of making a profit.

Why not?

Why would you be looking at the RR if you were just curious?

And i fully expect to make a healthy profit on my Forester... why wouldnt i expect the same from the Evo or indeed the RR if it were the right price?

Besides, i doubt very much the evo wagon will make the SEVS register...its been out for nearly 3 years and nothing has happened so unless theres something else you know that i dont...

One more thing which you may have forgotten... they only made a grand total of 2500 Evo wagons,... cant see that many getting down there...
