Well Type R arrives from regular cheap family sedan with slapped on cheap body kit, suspension, turbo, etc. R8 is a track car from the very beginning, expensive, amazing quality, and performance, with rear mid-engine layout, quarter mile times in 11s and 0-60 in like mid 3s, it's also AWD. It's the R8 that has clever engineering lol. Something doesn't add up .....

And just want to underline the shocking part again....FWD sedan with i4 hanging over front axel without 50/50 weight distribution vs AWD rear mid-engine V10. Whats next, we will have Civic DX kill M2/3/4
