I wouldn't laugh too hard that car is light and with a 2.0 turbo may surprise you..

People have short term memories or are too young too remember what it was like to race against modified civics and integras in the 90's. If this car is a resurgence of that era? This car will be very respectable. That said, respectable hatches don't come to the US anymore... Ford, AN AMERICAN CORPORATION even took 2 decades to give us the European focus. Lol.

The hatch just don't appeal much to the American market.
Then again I quite lost my confidence with Honda in this generation.

i didnt know, too late anyway for me, but long time ago they shipped a handful of R32's in MT to the US. always wanted that hatch but DSG-only offering killed it for me.

Indeed. Coming from Europe we got all the goodies ... inc the hot hatches.

I had a Integra Type R with a K24a2 swap...dyno at 248. Very nice fast and light car....but no 370z....People complain about road noise in a 370? The Type R had no sound deadening.

At this rate, honda needs to make the CIvic AWD to handle the power. They used to make awd civics
