The prototype was spotted testing in convoy alongside the 276bhp Vauxhall Astra VXR and the even more potent 345bhp Ford Focus RS500 Mark II, which proves that Honda is aiming to offer at least 300bhp in the new Type-R.

I'd rather put that setup in a ek9... But personally I think all 2010+ hondas are ugly, too bulky looking.

It's fugly, it's too big and it's too heavy. Why the hell are they making the Type R, their highest sports model, a freaking big, heavy 5 door hatch??? Flat out stupid. Oh and I'm sure the price is stupid too..

Actually I'm sure the economy of the motor is very good. Look at all the other econo boxes that are now using FI and getting crazy good gas mileage while still putting down decent power .

Can't stand the rear end. The rest of it is bearable.

Yup u right, these new sports cars that are being made are not that heavy as back in the day
