It sucks that the US market will have an orange reflector in the headlight that can't be easily removed.

Overall, I like the new design, but it looks way subtle.

I really like the new wheels. Do you believe they are forged?
They honestly look the same as the 2021 LE BBS wheels. So they might be forged unless Honda decided to develop a cast version.

They seem similar yes, but the FL5's is 19'' to begin with. Those spokes seem too thin to be cast...

I will just wonder how many people will be confused trying to distinguish if the new car they’re looking at on the road is actually the new Type R or a regular Civic made to look like the new Type R with the new after-market like spoiler, Red badges and other add-ons. 🤔

I think our 10th Gens have a more distinctive look and can be recognized from all angles at a distance especially with the one of a kind factory spoiler in the back.
