Ridiculous over-the-top styling aside, I'm glad that Honda didn't follow current trend and only offered this car with manual gearbox . I can live with the front end, but to me the rear is just plain ugly and poorly designed. It would be nice if they make sedan version as well, like the FD2R.

Nope, surely not me to be drooling over that no matter what! If got money I'd rather get an AMG A45 anytime any day over this.

I got no money lah, taiko. Of cos I drool A45 also.
I just wanna say it is still a nice car. For poor people like me, it is a dream.

It's a personal taste la dude. It's pretty clear you like your Mercs

Anyway I personally do not like the A45 AMG or not. I cannot love the looks so even if it drives well I won't ever own one. Having said that I'm having mixed feelings with the new Civic R. I very much prefer the FD2R but the EP3 is still the prettiest of the lot... for me.

You're not poor. You're just not rich yet. :proud:

I actually don't like all Mercs too. For me A45 is also not that good looking but I can live with it, unlike the last 2 generations of Type Rs, no mixed feelings whatsoever there. Agree though that FD2R and EP3 still look better.

Maybe with time it will look good in future, as the older model shape gets dated.....lol

agreed, after all, there are plenty of aspects to appreciate other than pure looks

Man I just wish they officially bring in the UK version of this cuz the back is, personally, much better.
