Why on earth would anyone buy a CTR when the Integra Type R is sooo much better?


Some people dont want older cars, like me... :S

3 BHP is difference between Sport and GSI stuart...and GSI's are regarded in a much better light on here therefore I feel it makes a substantial difference..

Actually its the way the power is delivered from the C16 which makes it more suitable in the Corsa for straightline speed. Max torque and power is reached about 500rpm lower than the X16XE therefore acceleration is helped from more pulling power at lower revs, so to speak.

Then The DC5 ITR is brand new and it's gorgeous.

and what's this myth about them going wrong and costing lots? only jap cars that will cost lots are big engine turbo jobbies!!!
CTR is a very easy and cheap to run performance car.
only thing i don't like is steering way too light.

I'm 21, I'd rather drive a CTR and an Evo than a German shed Most CTR drivers are mid-late 20s I think your find.
