Come on fellow CTR owners is it that bad really?!!

Correct me if im wronge i may have read this somewhere or may have been told this but ,,,
I was assumed that the manufacturing plant in the uk is kicking out x amount of cars a week and honda will only allow a small percentage to the uk market ...
Can't be a bad thing can it ....?!!!
At least we are different for now and come to think of it your cars still worth a fair wack if you had to resale for some unjust reasen ?!! "gulp"...
I have clapped eyes on 2 CTR,s in my area in the last month and only single sightings apiece...
Think of it this way ...Its envious eyes you get when you pass the local rubber burning bregade ....!! And sick of the boyracers in there maxxed out noise machines all noise no power trying to have a go (vooommbar voooombar)!??...

On your next trip out do a basic count on the old type r !!
There bloody everywhere ...Why as the type r is bullet proof and will allways be a good racer........

All the best D

I ordered my NHB GT (Spacesaver, ipod connection, bassworks & mats) on 28 June, was told be no problem for 1st Sept!

Since begining of August the sales guy keeps saying week ending 23rd Sept. I called in last Saturday as I've decided to get Front & Rear Splitters added too (Seen one local which looks awesome) and he's still saying week ending 23rd. Trying to remain positive that date hasn't moved (Yet!)

I've seen one in ASDA Car park in Canterbury, look Gucking Forgeous, if my Civic Type S GT looks anywhere near as nice, I'll be one happy bunny, Can't wait till i'm old enough to get CTR. Boy-Racers, most havn't got the powere even to take on the Type S, let alone a Type R, most have clapped out 1.0's and a huge 3 tonne exhaust, no contest, none at all.

I have only seen one in NHB around my area of London, but tomorrow morning I will be able to see one every day.
How on earth am I going to be able to sleep tonight?

My dealer said they are limited to selling 5 a month. Good news for owners, as resale value is kept high if they are in short supply.

Sadly, so do I, Anyone ever seen the poor civic's here: Barryboys.co.uk ???? Those poor little cars, definately not for the faint hearted. For Civic specifics see here: Barryboys.co.uk :: Search

I never went for the exhaust thing though, I just did the body/wheels, to make it a bit more 'unique' and did the stereo cos' a Corsa one was crabby. Didn't do anything else at all.
