That's crazy...I do wonder what these cars will be worth on the used market a couple of years from now with 20k+ miles...hold value or typical depreciation?

There are already used ones for about $38k. Some poor dipshit brought home a $50k civic, his old lady probably left him, and now he's selling it because it isn't comfortable to sleep in on the skids.

If someone bought it at MSRP of $34775 (of which there are some who did), if they could actually sell it for $38k that'll be about break even.

It's also not fair to say it's just another Civic... unless you're also willing to say how there are also dipshits like me who dropped $60k+ on a 2 series.

IMO, Civic Type R (at MSRP) over the M240 all day everyday. But an extremely tough decision between CTR and M2.

I've seen a few, they look horrendous as stated. To me it looks like Honda tried to copy Subaru's STI, and failed, but that's just MO.

Appreciate everyone's opinion. I'm only comparing classes of cars that, in my opinion, should have outrageous styling and that hot hatches should look bonkers. It's the over-the-top styling on the CTR that I love, along with the performance. I wish my M2 were a little more over-the-top in styling (as long as there's no fake vents).

Literally there are way better cars at that price point than the Type R.

I’m seriously not sure why it’s so special. I mean isn’t FWD the thing to avoid in most track cars?

But that seems to be the allure of this car, that an FWD is able to post such an impressive 'ring time. Again, I've never concerned myself too much with Nurburgring times, but what that car can do is pretty impressive. It's just damn fugly. They can't tell me that that's the only way they could have made the car look to perform the way it does. If it looked just a little more palatable, people would be all over this thing.

Way too much going on in the rear. Seems like lead designer has a serious booty fetish.

I saw a gray one and thought it looked great... but again, a FWD turbo car is not my thing... if they made this car AWD and more akin to an EVO, I think it would be great.

I think this might be the first car in history where the mods are to remove the crap the factory installed to make it look better. A factory de-mod if you will to tone down the professional vandalism.

Hell to the mother of NO for a $50k Civic. IMO, no civic is worth that but for others I guess it is.

I really want to know what the demographic is. Maybe new college grad got his first paycheck at his first 6 figure job?
