NOTHING could live up to that much hype

Your level of pleasure or displeasure will depend on what you want out of the car. What will it's main purpose be?

Image...don't bother. There's better show cars.

Drag racing...large displacement, RWD cars will still own you.

Autocross...one of the best ever

Road Racing...almost a turn-key track car

Stereo...LOL! wait till you drive one to see why that doesn't work

Daily driver ONLY...the track related funcion makes the R less than ideal if your car will see no track time.

See less See more

I'll have to agree with ITR#231, driving this car everyday is a little much. I love the car but I am going to buy another car for daily driving.

I agree with 231 totally, it is not a cruiser and not a stoplight racer.

It is however a pure purpose built race car, not for the feint of heart, and Not for the immature.

Well, guess i'm the oddball. I love this car even for daily driving. The suspension is stiff but not harsh, the engine is a little noisy but the hum of the engine relieves my stress, it doesn't really open up until you let it pass 6 grand and that's when all hell breaks loose. Plenty of low end torque for a 4 cylinder. I mean I find stupid reasons just to drive the car. I'm sorry am I rambling? Hell, I need to go get some new MtF. Allright guys, time to fire up the "R". Later.

P.S. Get the car, you will never regret it.

i agree with "all motor speed".....I do have two cars, but i use my itr everyday, to and from work, at nights, the shopping.....i then do track days, and every month the honda sports car club drive.......

i just live my car and would have problems if i ever had to replace it, dont like the new rsx-s (in Oz we got the rsx-R but it isnt the jdm version and isnt that impressive)

Yellow is a bit much sometimes...

...so we got a Black one too.

Both daily driven, no problems thus far.
