This is so true. I initially bought a 5 series - no idea why. I HATED that big old boring car with a passion. Sold it as soon as I could and hopped in a CTR. Been more than happy ever since.
AWESOME. Iām loving my CTR in the same way. Every day when I walk to it I get excited. Seems like most people like the car and most importantly my wife grew to really love it.
My CTR is the first car Iāve owned where I know Iāll never sell it. I will drive it until itās no longer economical to repair. I simply think itās one of the greatest cars ever made. Simple, NOT connected to the internet, manual, light and powerful..... and most importantly itās FUN to drive.
Where I live a neighbour 2 doors down has one. I have mine and still kind of love the massive wing. Anyway, anyone who drives a R gets my approval. Such an awesome car.
Agree. They donāt even look so good. I went to 18ā and have been super happy. Car still handles awesome and i never feel torque steer. I think the 20ā are for the showroom and track only.
Mine has had 1-2 crunch and some 3-4 lock outs from Brand new. Main dealer leads Honda mechanic test drove my car and then I also drove it to show issues. He said itās better to shift in a ātwo-stepā manner from 1-2 in order for second gear to be ready. Not sure if that makes sense but the...
Agree with all comments here. The stock tyres are USELESS in cold temperatures. In snow you will have no chance. Get a set of 18ā wheels and good dedicated winter tyres like Nokians. However, renting a car will be the easiest.
Cool review! I bought my CTR after owning a couple of late model BMWs - both with really high end infotainment, cameras and software. I hear you on the CTRās laggy system and crappy camera but for me none of that matters - i love the car just as it is because I realized I care more about the...
Youāre experiencing a well known medical condition called āawesomenewcarisis. Condition commonly shows symptoms such as excessive worry about small things that are not problems at all. All joking aside, your car is fine and just enjoy it. Youāll get used to all the new sounds. Drive it like you...
I love that the car is so fast without being loud. When I start it you can hear itās not a run of the mill engine, but personally I donāt need it louder. Oh, I also love rev-match especially in R mode. Iāll get my coat now....
I drive mine long distances (4hours+) all the time with wife and kiddie and we all love it. Totally comfortable, spacious and safe due to power. Imo, a powerful car is the safer option (overtaking). Mine is stock except for 18inch Rims with winter tires here in Europe. No complaints at all. Only...
CTR is by far my favourite car from everything I've owned incl. A 650bhp GT500 some time ago.
Pros: fast as hell. Most people donāt think itās as fast as it is because itās not like a Golf R which is blistering off the line. Once youāre in 2nd gear the CTR is just potent.
It is very light...
Went with 18inch Sparco Pro Corsas and 245/40/18 Nokian Snow/Winter tyres. Couldnāt be happier and overall not an expensive setup. I actually prefer the improved ride quality and feel of the car over those insane 20inch stock wheels.
Oh, hereās mine. Picked it up new from local dealer last year. Only mod so far is 18inch Sparco Pro Corsaās. Now I love the car even more. Massive ride quality improvement.
Hey all. First time posting here. LOVE my type R. I noticed something weird: when cruising on highway and approaching toll gates I put car in neutral to test some coasting and the engine immediately started to rev very high on its own (didnāt touch accelerator). I usually downshift so this...
