Would you buy a 5 door Civic hatch with a 7500 rpm redline K20 Turbo with 220 ponies?

The Euro press got confuse with the engine size for the Civic "R". The 1.6L Turbo is the new Diesel not the "R" engine.

There is two new 1.6L turbo. The diesel which has been shown and is coming out soon and a gasoline engine. The gas engine is developed for the Civic WTCC and according to ruling must be based on a road going engine. Honda has to come out with a car with 1.6 L turbo engine for 2013. (Unless ruling allows the road engine use different cc)

Honda need to stop listening to wrong people. How many did the old man ask around when he came out with the CB750 Four in the late 60's. The bike just stunned the world. Do it again Honda. Remember Honda S800 sports car? Beating competitors 3.0L on the racetrack. Do it again Honda. Stun the world.

The WTCC 1.6L turbo is a R-series engine block
The BTCC 2.0 turbo is a K-series engine block

The British market wants the Civic R back!
It will be built in England.
