    It looks like one car dropped on top of another car. Which, considering the two-level dashboard Civics have had for a while is some kind of theme for Honda. I want to like the Focus RS, but the price is going to be pretty high and a decent Subaru equivalent will still be much less.

    The Civic Type-R looks way over the top for me to own... but respect to them for making something that's different to all the other (Euro) hot-hatch makers ...

    But I dont see it selling too well as its £30,000+ and only the older driver could afford it and they wont go for that image.

    Saw the new CTR today at a car meet and it drew a big crowd...



    But I still prefer this...

    Have to say that the wide wheel archs look really good.

    The local tuner I use, Riverside Racing, took delivery of one of the first UK Focus RS today !

    Cant wait to go have a look in the metal and try to get a ride in it !

    It might be preferable for the car makers to use the small suvs for wrc to market the small suvs hopefully better than Suzuki did with the SX4. The BTCC has quite few brands this year.

    http://www.cars4youcustom.com/ (At least these versions of the Fiesta used the awd of the evo)

    The new wrx can easily be lifted 300hp which is probably sufficient if you intend to keep your driver's licence and car when travelling on public roads in most countries.

    In Australia and Nz you can go down to your Ford dealer and buy (for not too much longer) Ford Falcon with 450 horsepower as the family car. https://youtu.be/p-yGuaOehUQ

    The current Mazda 2/ Demio hatchback uses a variation of the Mazda CX5 platform so is probably more able to be modified to 4wd than the platform used by the Ford Fiesta.

    New Focus RS using its 'launch-control' sounds pretty much like a rally car !
