GT5 2008 Honda Civic Type R

Today's GT5 car pictures are of the 2008 Honda Civic Type R and not for the first time, see list of cars in the right-hand panel on this blog.


Painted Super Platinum Metallic and parked here at San Galgano Abbey which is one of the Italian photo travel locations in GT5.


In his book What Not to Drive, writing about the immediate prior version of this car, Richard Hammond (of the former Top Gear infamy) specifically lists this car as one of those not to drive... for senior citizens complaining of a "bone-crashingly hard ride and a noisy cabin".











The red Honda emblem is Type R specific, i.e. seen strictly on Type R Honda cars which are performance versions of the regular cars.
