Not a fan of four doors or hatchbacks - sorry, I just can't get station wagon out of my head, lol. Not a fan of all the red in the interior (I don't even like the red Honda badge to be honest). Give me a Coupe Type R and with 360hp and AWD (it would be like a mini Huracan, lol). Oh and, I have yet to see a Type R in green? Give me green and a sun roof while you're at it. Actually why not more sporty and neon colors? Thanks Honda in advance, hehe.
Sounds like a 2018 Audi S5 coupe is what your looking for. 354hp, AWD, and a panoramic sunroof...

You have a ctr, but your wishes kinda show as if you do not really understand hondas heritage... FWD compact nimble smooth reliable its always what honda has been. Whether honda makes a AWD with 360hp and increased weight = risk its track status of actually being slower around a track possibly due to weight and increase issues of reliability due to it being awd. There are other car manufacturers that have these type of cars. Honda builds them off cars that already exist, making a single car out of its production is not economical and a bad choice for investors > small market consumers

So forget the horsepower increase and all-wheel drive, what about just a coupe Type R? No excuse not to offer the sunroof though because the SI has it. And definitely get rid of all that gaudy red in the interior. I'd rather have the all black interior of the SI with its little bit of red stitching here and there.

I'll have to check that car out when I get a chance.....

Lol. I was planning on renting one next spring, do you think it's worth the $2,000 a day rental fee? I'll probably pay the price no matter what you say because either way I want to experience one and you only live once.

SMH? It's a Honda Civic, dude. If a sunroof is good enough for a performance car like the Camaro Zl1 what makes a little 4-banger Civic too good to have one? Don't grow too big of an ego over a performance version of a 4-banger Civic.... It's no where near the top of the performance car food chain!

I don’t have the time or the effort to explain to you why a type-R has never and will never have a sunroof. It may be your ultimate fantasy, but it will never happen. Sorry if this upsets you

Every forum about lightweight performance cars will have people complaining about sunroofs. Don't try to explain center of gravity, it's a losing battle...

I thought these forums are supposed to be about positive discussion? Not about bagging on other people’s opinions, ideas, or interests. We’re all here to encourage each other.

I like the look of the coupe, just bought myself a white si. In my opinion I’m not a big fan of the hatchback, but the type r definitely looks wonderful w/ it’s wide body. I definitely wouldn’t mind getting the Type R, but if they had it as a coupe I’d definitely consider it

I passed a coupe with a type r style wing on the back the other day and I must say it does look pretty good. Maybe someone will take some notes of the civic Si at sema with the K20 conversion and take the plunge to do one themselves. I’m sure when the new accords come out and more type Rs get wrecked for donors we’ll have more interest and aftermarket support in doing the conversion.

In no way did I say that in a negative connotation. I'm not a big fan of avocados, but I never said avocados are terrible.
Nice hatchback, I like it in the silver! When'd you purchase?
