According to plebbit, Honda Canada is not allowing dealers to

>>17383361
No, just buy a lightly used RS or a new one without markup.

I dunno anon. The interior of my Fiesta ST is pretty shit, and the RS looks very similar. This looks a lot nicer.

>>17383361
Yes if you want everyone on /o/ to laugh at you FWD car.

>>17383382

dropped

>>17383361

People already laugh at my FWD car. At least with a Type R I can park besides kids with fake Type R stickers on their base model shitboxes and make them jealous.

>>17383689
wtf why would they do this.

>>17383726
If this was an RWD car I wouldn't care, but a FWD car with an electric handbrake? How the fuck do I get hektik in the snow with this?

Why would anyone buy this over an STI?

There is literally no reason.

>>17383808
It has the same power and torque (more in Europe actually) but is 300lbs lighter. It's superior in everything that isn't 0-60.

>>17383822
Except it's a Honda..

>>17384685
Don't stop there anon, expand on that

>>17384685
So it's more reliable?

>>17383361
Buy a Golf R instead.

Why would anyone pay 30k for a Civic?

Does /o/ hate second hand cars? Can't you just buy a 2nd hand performance car?

>>17383361
Ok. Guess what happens next?


Specialty dealers buy these cars by sending hookers and blow to the Honda dealership's sales manager or owner.

The specialty dealers then buy the Type R, and mark it up to $65kcanacuck bucks.

The eagaltarian society of Canada was a good idea on paper, but simply makes capitalism dirtier than it would be if allowed to be handled in the open at arms length.

Why wouldn't you buy the fastest STI? Which is the 2006 STI.
How Subaru got away with making their performance car slower, I will never know.

Communism/socialism really is great idea. If everyone wanted the best for everyone else, it would work perfectly.
But people are greedy and only want what's best for themselves, so communism/socialism fails terribly.
Capitalism harnesses that greed and turns it into productivity by giving you more shit when you do more shit.

If I was a non Honda dealership I would absolutely buy up those Type Rs as quick as possible and then mark up the fuck out of them. Maybe I'll send a nice gift over to the manager so I get the 5 or so coming into his dealership.
I mean what does he care, the faster he sells them the better he looks.

>>17383676
Because it's fast?
>muh meme wheel drive
Who the fuck cares, it's made by the FWD company, they know what they're doing by now.

>>17385582
>fast
>6s 0-60

try again buddy. this thing is a steaming pile of shit

>not one of the new power plants

Shitbaru did this with the STI too, why?

>>17383822

could you expand on that? genuinely curious.

Get a Golf R. It has a the nicest interior of the class and it's AWD.

>>17385908
>tfsi/dsg

Both of those are nightmares tho

>>17385908
>Haldex

Shitty fake AWD. Drives like a FWD car most of the time, and really only lets you launch better. I'd rather save 200lbs at the expense of 0-60 times.

>>17383382
>no volume knob

SHIT

>>17385942
0-60 is a fake metric that is heavily based on gearing anyway

Theres literal shit that is specifically geared to be as quick possible to 60mph but an extra shift fucks it up for that minor difference to 100kph

>>17383361
Man I'm hyped. I already got money to buy new car. Was about to buy the Golf GTi but then I saw the news, so I think I'm gonna hold on to my old car for a bit longer
