Nice write-up.

Sadly the CTR has ceased production, as you say. This is due to emission regulations, i.e. the engine not meeting (and Honda not willing/able to make it meet) the latest Euro V regs Confusedad:

TimmyK I think the FN2 was just out of character.
EK9 = best CTR ever built FACT
EP3 = well defined car, K20 engine excellent enginering bench mark, handling excellent

These cars didnt seem to have any expense spared. The FN2 seemed to lack something.................. heart!!! It was just a normal civic with the K20A lump put in with some recaro's. The Jap TYPE R gets raving reviews so why doesnt the Euro live up to this???

****** right EK9 is by the far the best and the others don't even come within a 50 miles close to be as good as it. Recaro Interior, Super light chassis, magnesium wheels, 185 bhp from a 1.6 litre engine. Spoon tuned suspension, trained at the Montegi race track, the thing even only had one coat of paint to keep the wait down. Just totally epic winning and its boggles my mid how they can just take a mssive steps backwards with the CTR's that followed.
