There's always a "timely" comparison when a new car releases.
I have no doubts that the CTR can be faster at this point (dude, a lot of things are), but there wasn't a point in this review apart from how far vehicle engineering and design as come to a point that FWD's are taking strides.
Someone literally willing to spend over $40k on a Civic (don't get me started...) probably isn't thinking about an STi or Z. That's such a singular desire. On the other end, someone looking for Z probably doesn't care for a Civic — they're likely set on the fact they're going to drive a 2-door that has little way for purpose beyond driving.
