The Hype R is a tough sell for me.
The looks
The bright red interior
$40k Civic

Eh, fuck it. The thing is probably a blast to drive, isn't all the esspensive at MSRP, and will barely depreciate due to being ZOMG pinnacle of ricerdom. A decent chapter in an enthusiast's book IMHO.

You know Chris, if you could just not worry about stigma like our boy Max, you'd be a lot happier.Detroit wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 3:05 pmThis is what makes it so to me. Who wants to be king of the morans? Not I.Desertbreh wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 3:01 pm

How often are you really going to be able to enjoy the great driving dynamics? Lets be real.
Agreed that the Golf is under-styled, but that's why I've always liked them. In an interesting color like Blue, they looks great with tasteful restraint.

Would be interesting to compare them for sure. This car is likely a lot more polished than my car, drive wise, but also a good bit faster. Dat EJ though I do love me the rumble.

I drive a "gay ass Volt" most of the time, my opinion clearly doesn't count.

I think there's enough cool about this car that it eclipses the ricerdom downside. The car is a very well engineered machine with serious handling chops

I feel like the STI walks right on the line of being too much...but it's true to itself and works. Fun, great sounds, looks great, solid performance, AWD, etc.
It's the one hole I regret in my ownershit history. I've wanted a WRX forever.

I can't get excited about a $40k FWD car, but if you like it then buy it. They look the least hideous in black or white.Desertbreh wrote:I think there's enough cool about this car that it eclipses the ricerdom downside. The car is a very well engineered machine with serious handling chops
