Hot hatch thread:
CIVIC EP3 TYPE R VS. CLIO 3 SPORT.
They are so similar: both are manual, both have a 2000cc engine, both have 200hp.
What do you guys think is the best choice?

I’m bias because I own an ep3, but overall I believe it to be a better car for all of the reasons already listed: better looking, better handling, more aftermarket availability etc.

The handling is something I really want to try to the EP3

Hard choice.. I think I’ll go with Honda. The Clio isn’t bad but I love high revs

Definitely Civic mate, Renault aren’t renowned for build quality

The Type R looks better but as a former Clio B driver I would buy the RS. Btw me & my family never had any issues with our Renaults

Really? It is so weird that I explore the internet and the number of people who hate Renaults with the number of people who love them because of their reliability is 50/50.

It’s a hard choice, but I would maybe prefer the Clio, since I like small hatches like this and I know Renault Sport is great…and the color is perfect! :D

I’ve found one exactly like the one in the photo but with no rear spoiler.
