In addition to the CR-Z sports coupe, Skydeck MPV and EV-N concept studies, Honda's exhibits at this year's Tokyo Motor Show also included the new Civic Type R Euro which the company plans to introduce in Japan in November. The three-door hatch is built at Honda's Swindon factory in the UK and is fitted with a rev-happy 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four that makes 201 HP at 7,800 rpm and 142 lb-ft of torque at 5,600 rpm. Power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed manual.Honda did not disclose any performance figures for the JDM-spec Civic Type R hatch, but we gather there won't any changes over the European market version that goes from naught to 62mph (100 km/h) in 6.6 seconds and on to a top speed of 146mph or 235 km/h.

Honda definitly knows how to use the white. You see that in many cars of thiers. Japanese simplicity. Sharp and minimalistic.
Not a huge Civic fan, but that is one nice lookin' Honda!! Very clean. I especially like the door handles.
"Japanese simplicity. Sharp and minimalistic."
Minimalisticism with reguards to simplicity is a trait of the Scandinavians, not the Japanese.
"Minimalisticism with regards to simplicity is a trait of the Scandinavians, not the Japanese"-
U'd have to go to Nippon for that. Observe thier houses, interiror objects, garden landscapes, thier art, Samurai swords...its been in thier culture from ancient times and to tell you that Indian art not unlike...what u see on tv is also very simplistic and minimalistic and thier culture is older than the Japanese....but thats one for the future.
