    I absolutely love this car. I can never understand why people choose to ignore this car. It is a bloody brilliant car. Well done Honda and Mugen for making an absolutely awesome product as always. Long live Honda.

      Sergio Aguirre that's like saying just get a standard 5liter GT instead of a 350 R mustang. Sure you can make it faster but it'll never be a Shelby 350 R or in this case a RR.

      It might drop a bit in price or it might not, FD2R's prices is almost stabilized in Japan and as for Mugen RR, this one would only go up in price because it's a collector's car.. After all, this is the last NA Type Rs we will ever get.. It's turbo, turbo and more turbo from now on D:

    Such a shame the FD2 type r didn't officially come to the UK; and I believe it was actually made in the UK! Remember litchfield imported a bunch at an on the street price of about £22k if memory serves me right.

    The intro says, CTR FD2R only available in Japan ... correction please..
    add Malaysia to that, the only country in the world outside Japan where FD2R officially available sold by Honda..
    As a malaysian , we are the envy of the world at that time..
    Thanks to long history of Honda and Japan in general with Malaysia, stem from excellent relationships and respect between two countries..

    Sometimes wonder why Honda built a 4door saloon type R instead of a coupe or a hatch like they did with the ek9 & dc2 back in the days...

      Nick Givens maybe yes to some people also me like the 4dr but i think a coupe would be more sporty and better matched to the youth.

      Vtecing I think the reason I like the sedan is cause I'm too tall for the coupe
