This is the only color for this car, it hides the ugly so well.

That being said I've driven one plenty and it's a great daily driver and supremely capable chassis! Honda may be getting back into the swing of things but I don't want to jynx them! GLWS!

Someone buy this and sell it to GRP. I am dead serious, this is the most fun you can have in an automobile for only 36k!

Great driver. You really don't care that it is ugly as sin from behind the wheel. I do wish that the designers had shown a bit more restraint though.

Just bought an 18 in black. Ever since I read Dan Neal’s column in the WSJ weekend edition (if you haven’t read any of his reviews google him) I’ve wanted one. My wife hates it. I love it. I agree with GRP it’s the best car you can buy for the price. It’s a drivers car with 2018 technology. It’s not a Porsche but it sure is fun. It’s a Honda I expect to drive the hell out of it and I expect it to last forever

Can't beat Honda reliability and fun, even with looks only the mother(ship) could love!

Great license plate! Hope you're keeping the Subie. GLWS!

Here's the article (paywall likely): https://www.wsj.com/articles/2018-ho...&page=2&pos=12

Even the third tailpipe sticking out the back is unsettling, the sport-compact equivalent of a supernumerary nipple.

The car’s styling is the first and tightest decision-gate. If you don’t fit through, you were never meant to... All the young dudes driving the car want to go unnoticed exactly as much as the guy at Comic-Con dressed as Deadpool.

i've got one and also a 98 integra type r. This thing is amazing on track - taken it to laguna seca twice so far and each time it's better and better. A true drivers car for sure.

Power delivery in stock form is great but steering feel isn't as raw as you'd like - but it's not unacceptable.

The only thing that needs to go is the 20" wheels and the stock tires. 30 series tires on 20's was a ridiculous choice by Honda.

Aftermarket is already red-hot on the FK8 and simple bolt on's and a tune are making for big jumps in power. It is a turbo car afterall.....

Seats are INCREDIBLE. Shifter is amazing, too.

With GRP Exhaust, intercooler and tune only we can increase this cars performance to nearly 400 wheel torque and 370 wheel hp. They become an animal, but so much fun!

This car can sell for $38k+ all day long....at $36k it's the best priced CTR on the market.
