The latest addition to the powerful four-cylinder car club is the fifth generation Honda Civic Type R. The new performance Civic looks like every racer’s dream, with numerous spoilers, scoops, and air vents all over the body. Its aggressive design, excellent performance, and JDM appeal make this Civic a valuable and highly sought-after addition to the hot hatch class (via Top Gear).

Honda has resisted the temptation to turbocharge its performance engines for a long time. Still, the Civic Type R has precisely that under the hood, like any other competitor in the class. The 2.0-liter turbo four delivers 306 HP and can propel this nasty-looking Civic Type R from 0 to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds. It can also top 170 mph.
