Fifth Gear: UKDM Civic Type-R vs JDM Civic Type-R

JDM CTR of course! according to them it's faster, more powerful, more agile. and then obviously it's got 4 doors and is larger. and i like the look of the sedan more than that hb. so what's better about the hatchback typeR?

Ukdm Ctr!
I'm suprised that fit afficionados prefer the jdm version, especially since the uk version type r is built on a variation of our (usdm) fits chassis. Its like the ultimate version so to speak.
I love the way the jdm type r looks though, as i've been a fan of the newer civic's styling. But the uk type r is AMAZING, kudos for honda for not being conservative and showing people who think that they are plain as bread that they CAN come out with a bad ass desgin that is also functional. Even a slighlty dumbed down version of this car as a regular civic hatch would do SO well for the us in the U.S.! I recognize the slight superiority of the jdm version, but the styling of the uk version alone gets my vote. Plus its k20 is tuned different than ours and gives a little more torque significantly sooner.
