"2018 Honda Civic Type R
Ready to put the “hot” in hot hatch? Honda’s latest is a track-ready, five-door hatchback that pulls out all the stops in performance and styling; from the functional scoops and curves that feed the turbo-charged 2.0-liter four-cylinder and aid in aerodynamics, to the massive wing that screams “Look at me!” and delivers massive downforce. The chassis tuning is sublime and immensely precise; little wonder that the Type R set the front-wheel drive production car record at the Nürburgring. So, race it! Pit this 306-hp front-wheel-drive sweetheart against the best in its division and enjoy the view from the top step of the podium."

wheel nuts look rusty and the letter H isn't lined up with the tyre valve :lol:

Forza 7 model seems pretty slow along the long "start-finish" straight compared to the 7:43 lap record

My mistake, had the detuned 235bhp version - "proper" version I have down to 8:18

Must be the American FK8 the game version is based on seeing as it only has 306 bhp.

Aye, it has the orange side marker light and is left hand drive.

We have orange marker lights on the UK model.

Just realised you mean the lens is orange.

And its LHD

And its LHD

2 thirds of the world drive on the right, so the vehicles are LHD.

Sorry, not sure what point you were making. :smt053

You can tell it's based on the American model...

How so?
LHD on it's own is not conclusive, but Jay.dee also mentioned the orange lensed marker lights yesterday.
I did think it was based on the American model because it only has 306bhp, which the American market is well known for this power deficit.
I just thought it was strange that you mentioned the LHD point when it had already been mentioned.....this is why I said I was unsure of your point.
