General Comments
I had a Civic VTI before buying my UK spec Red Honda Integra Type R so i was well prepared for the savageness of the VTEC kick in. However i wasn't ready for the level of grip this car exhibits. Any corner at any speed. I have yet to find the limits of this car and i really have been looking hard!
Its the most entertaining car i have ever driven and that includes some pretty high end machinery. When it comes to a twisty country road be asured in this car you can beat anything. Bikes, Scoobs, M3s. In a straight line you will lose out but show this car a corner and the LSD grabs the apex and pulls you round.
Just don't crash, coz the lightened chassis which gives such a rewarding experince will also provide at long term stay in hospital!

I do think these cars are great, but i'm pretty sure it cant beat an m3, may be one of the older ones pre2001, but my 2004 would easily get away from it.
<br>But for the money you cant go wrong.
