never looked at it, but there is no Xenon available on the type-r at all? That's pretty bad. I love the xenon on my EX, so it would really miss it if it were gone. No Type-R then when i trade in my Civic in a couple of years.

really, thats bloomin crazy, and here in the uk historically we are supposed to get the greatest spec lists. what idiot at honda made that decision I wonder, they all come from the same factory, why deprive us of xenons on a £18600 car (GT) when all the competition and some cheaper cars have them!

It's a crazy decision. Right up there with the late and rubbish inclusion of the ipod adaptor!

nope i'm afraid not. maybe you guys there are worse drivers than us lol, just kidding, or maybe it gets darker there or something.

Honda have been guilty of some very strange decisions with the new civic though - I think honda could have it's own X-files episode - the H-files.

The same thing happened on the old CTR, I expect it'll get applied on future models to make it 'better'.

But here in the Netherlands the 19" Rage wheels are not a factory fitted option. So you have to buy them seperately and that is about 3700 Euro on the Honda accessoiry site.

We probably have more street lights, Im guessing that is the reasoning behind it.
