If you watch YouTube review videos and read the comments (i.e., if you like to waste your time . . . though marginally more productive than "amusing yourself," as my high school French teacher used to say), you would come away with the impression that everybody thinks CTR is ugly or at least too gaudy. In fact, you'd notice that most reviews rave non-stop about CTR, but most of them complain incessantly about its appearance.
In my experience, friends and family seem to be awestruck initially. In a good way, I think. No negative comments (to my face). As for the public, I get thumbs up from Honda owners (especially Si owners), as well as WRX/STI and other performance car drivers. People who are clearly not car guys/gals provide the best reactions -- I have had several people just go absolutely bonkers upon seeing the car, like eyes wide open, mouth gaped, "holy s__t, what kind of car is that? Honda, really? WTF" Hilarious.
Can't say I have really encountered any negativity, except for my son's classmate's weird dad . . . . the f__er is dead to me. haha, not really.
So, what kind of reactions do you get every day in the real world? Generally positive or negative? Or just meh.
