These are just renderings, thankfully.

I actually like the front. The rear not so much.

I prefer the FK8 way more. I don't like the styling...

Please be AWD!
I hope it's not AWD. AWD is unecesarily complex and heavy. It would not be a benefit to this car other than straight line acceleration, which is not the purpose of a CTR. With the right set of tires, a FWD with a limited slip is excellent.

It looks nice but it doesn't really look like a Civic.

I've had a lot of AWD cars, this car is different and fun in it's own way that I really enjoy. I loved the feel of an EVO/STi but this is different and would be great to keep it that way. If this were made AWD I think the closest it would feel to would be an EVO.
