As A former Peugeot driver (307

) I can tell you that I'm more than happy to drive a Civic.
Go for a test drive, If I had followed what they say in our newspaper I would have owned a Golf or a Seat today !
I think that the building quality of a R type is the same as the rest of the civic : good but could be better ! But the longer you will wait before Ordering the better they can improve the assembly

! But dont wait too much or you will get an IX Gen civic !
