Honda better keep there ear to the ground on this new R. Ford are close to sign off on new RS to be released hummm 2015. Will be runnuing newly deveoped 2.3T with 330bhp. Honda please keep to your thoughts for this new R.
Honda set the new Type R target to be the fastest FWD car around the "ring" I seem to recall, that means it needs to beat a new FWD Focus RS in my mind
The new RS will be 330hp. I think the new CTR will be close, probably around 300hp. It will have to be lighter which won't be hard to do, just depends how much they want to push cost. The CTR will be the fastest FWD around Nurburgring so it will have to beat the RS.
It really is a case of how much Honda want it, They can hit their aim of being the best but it will need commitment and more likely weight loss rather than power gains over the opponents.
For me I hope Honda do succeed but more importantly if it FWD it needs to be at a competitive price, I cannot justify a price premium over the competition just because it goes faster around the "ring".
I really want it all but I really want my next car to be a Honda too!
