Erm... Well... She runs, turns, and even drives straight... I think...

Don't mind the wrinkles. Or the missing mirror. Or the bent seat. Or the lack of airbags.

Actually, I just found some other mirror to bolt up to it. Too bad it's metallic blue, and not even the same style. Oh well. I also picked up some super cheap regular Integra seats and I re-upholestered them with the cloth from my Type R. What a serious pain in the ***. The gaping hole left by the lack of airbags was also covered up, so it almost looks normal again.

Default How do you like the Type R?

As of right now I really want a 225 TTQCoupe, but in case anything happens im gonna need some other options.. I always liked the Type R but I really want something with more power or potential like the TT..
Thanks..
John

Default I love it

Despite the fact that mine is now ugly as sin, it's still a fun car to drive. It's incredibly responsive. Tons of feedback from everything you do. The car actually turns in too, not like my pig of an S4. It's not as powerful as the S4, but you can carry a lot more speed through corners.

It's different to drive though, and I still have a lot of learning to do, as evidenced by my brain-dead accident in the fall. The first time you take it out to the track, you just might forget that it's front wheel drive.

Yeah, it's not a straightline car at all, but it's still pretty zippy. If you're crazy enough to do things like cams and a headwork, and intake/exhaust, you can drop it to low 13's in the quarter mile (on slicks). Another nice thing is that when you're out on a big track, you can keep the car in the powerband all the time, and the sound that the engine makes is just musical.
