Honda Civic Type R Owners Have Their Say on the Type R Concept

While we’ll have to wait until next year to see the production version of the all-new Honda Civic Type R, the concept previewing it has been around for quite a while.

Since Honda says the production car will look almost the same as the study, the carmaker showcased it at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in Belgium, where around 200 Honda Civic Type R owners from across Europe were invited to drive their cars on the legendary track.

While they were at it, Civic Type R owners also looked at the Civic Type R Concept, with all opinions being positive regarding the design. Whereas in terms of performance Honda’s claim that the upcoming Type R will be the fastest front-wheel drive car ever on the Nurburgring will satisfy everybody, most Type R owners said they wish Honda doesn’t change anything on the car design-wise when it launches it next year.
