Will A 300HP Civic Type-R Spark Life Into A Lifeless Honda Lineup?

The 2015 Honda Civic Type-R is taking shape and our spy photographers have caught it testing against its key rivals.

Spotted on European roads for the first time, the new Type-R certainly looks a lot more menacing than the standard hatchback, as you would expect from a hot hatch that is reported to produce well over 300bhp.

A large intercooler can be spotted through the wider grille and front air-intakes. This works together with the huge rear wing and side skirts to make it look almost as extreme as the touring cars from the BTCC.

Hi Honda, remember when the Si was an awesome hatchback with three doors and a wicked sweet 4 banger? Remember when your cars had double wishbones all around? Remember when the words "4 door Si Sedan" would have been blasphemy? I do, I miss those days. You need to get back to your roots Honda. Nix the crosstour, nix the ridgeline, the Si should only come in a three door hatchback body style maybe 4 door hatch as they would be more practical for someone with a family, and an accord wagon wouldn't be bad. Oops almost forgot, bring back the f*cking S2000.
