I am currently driving a Civic Type-R Championship White.
What I will miss...
The ridiculous high revs (it hits 8000 rpm before red lining)
The noise of the Natural Aspiration when 200bhp kicks in at high revs
The Championship White Paintwork on Body and Wheels (it still turns heads after five years)
The Red and Black Colour scheme of the interior.
The Bucket Seats with Type-R embroided in to them.
The ridculously over sized boot.
The styling of the car, it does look really agressive from the front.
The way the car handles with the slip diff
The Engine
How it still puts a smile on my face now
How low the suspension is
What I will not miss...
Cleaning the White Wheels with 7 spokes (it takes hours of blood and sweat)
The plastic cheap looking dashboard
The Sat Nav (looks very dated)
The Audio Player (it jumbles up your music list on your USB Pen Drive)
The loud creaks and groans from the suspension on a cold start in the morning
The styling of the car from the back it looks better from some angles than others.
3 Doors and the latch on the seats which you pull to let people in the back.
The headlights being Halogen Projectors and not Xenons.
How low the suspension is
How some body panels in the boot try to pop out of their fixing.
What I am looking forward to...
The overall car and experience
The Handling and Power.
Owning a car with a Turbo and lower down power it brings with it.
The Quality appearance of the GTI being more refined
The new Pro Nav system
Pretty much the whole thing.
5 Doors on a car that does not look naff having them.
What I am not looking forward to...
New irritations, squeaks and creaks a new car can bring with it.
