ASTRA GSi get my vote!!! CTR everyone has got them, and its true about the people who drive them! GSi have loads of extras and its a nice looking fast car!

I love civics to bits as my lil bro has the sport on 18's. Its nicer to drive than my astra and handles 10x better but there are far too many around for me to buy one.

My bros got a Type R, full N1 Spoon exhaust with an ITG panel filter in.
it sounds like a fuckin beast at the mo.
Hes had the new ITG induction kit on order for months, its expected to gain around 12BHP at least 
its going to sound immense

I reckon the CTR looks a "little" nicer then a corsa (can of worms succesfully opened)
Those who have mentioned the Audi S3 - in the real world, they arent that quick (maybe off the line.) CTR will keep up with them happily. unless you chip the S3 of course, as we all know its easy to get silly power for little cash with turbos. a chipped S3 would see quite a few cars off i reckon

point scored...yassss 
There is no bolloking way a supercharged type R will do 12 sec. 1/4... !!!
Not without ALOT of work!!! and alot of money!
there are plenty of Astras that are hitting 13/14's which is where the SC civic is likley to be ....

Out of the two there is something about the civic r. Neighbour has one and the sound of it when it starts up is great.
Why not a Integra type r?

Read Matty Gs post - im sure he says the CTR is ugly, and his avatar tells me he drives a corsa. My response was to him not to the original thread title. Much like the part about the S3.

surely thats just personal opinion? many think the CTR looks like it should be round the back of Simmons Bakers, but thats all personal opinion too
