Honda Confirms Type-R For U.S. At Civic Concept Debut

I can see both sides of the argument for and against this. From a performance standpoint it just adds more unneeded weight, but also coming from an Si where I have it it's a nice feature and I dare say it's made me a tad lazier of a driver.
Agreed on both fronts.

It had me almost buy a Focus RS, as the RS has heated seats/steering wheel and AWD. To be honest, that is still on the table. As I can get a loaded RS for 37k out the door.

Ironically I can only find an rs locally to me. None of the Honda dealers are allocated any type r's and haven't even received any new si's yet
 
I love my lane watch camera ... if it's a touring model with navi and and other creature comforts then it really should have it. Nut thats just me
 
It looks like the Type-R won't be a one year production vehicle. If these are available next year or two, maybe I'll be tempted enough to get one.
 
I don't care much for the lane watch camera......It can be a little slow at times depending on the situation I find myself in.

In a Type R, I would just want the back up cam and apple carplay, smart/keyless entry......that's about it.
 
I'm still amazed that so many of you are spending $35k for something FWD.

I hear you, @webby, BUT I'm willing to bet, same with Evo/STI Owners, the majority of these dudes won't ever drive onto a track.
