About the Honda Civic Type R (FK2)

The FK2 was the shock: after decades of naturally aspirated Type Rs, Honda bolted a turbo to the K20C1 and produced 310 hp in a front-wheel-drive hatchback. Purists hated the idea and then drove one. The dual-axis front strut layout kills most of the torque steer, and the Nรผrburgring lap time Honda chased was not a marketing accident.
