trying to find a decent integra under 10 grand is hard! All the good ones seem to be over 10.

personally i like the ctr, ok they lack low down torque but they are a decent all round package.
just as many chavs have 182's around here as ctrs, any fast car is going to attract chav buyers.
decent review here :

this one compares the two as well
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7taI8slbPq0
looks like the honda handles just as well
Id have the CTR anyday just as good and not french and has jap reliability 
Plus im probably an essex chav anyway so it would make no odds

The teg will be better as a 'driver's car', the insurance will also be higher.( if it's a DC5) The people who have actually owned CTR's on here rate them very highly. The people who haven't, don't. funny that. As for the chav image thing most of you own Corsas and Saxos for fucks sake.
I looked at Clio 182's and Leon Cupra R's before I got the Civic, the leon was boring to drive and the Clios I drove were rattly cramped euro shitboxes. Just test drive a few of each and then make your mind up.

i dont own one, but ive driven ctr's loads and funnily enough, i dont rate them and know i couldnt live with one as a car. an integra though, thats a different story. lovely car to drive in every way possible.
a ctr is nothing more than a mediocre car that doesnt live up to the stickers on the side of it. the last 2 civic type-r's have been a step backwards

ur mum is mediocre.
Seriously though I do agree the last two civics aren't as hardcore as the previous one, but then again the EP3 sold shitloads and the new one is too. Honda are in the business of making money and a sanitised version is obviously what people want. In a perfect world the NSX-R would have sold a million and every subsequent type-r would be a stripped out white track weapon. But in the UK at least there isn't a big enough demand for that type of car.
