Hi Nick since we were doing a bit of filming with it for M2 magazine most of the drives were at pace or trying to be consistent for the film car so torque steer was not an issue as the pace was up there so we were not trying to induce it from standstill if that make sense, the roads we took it on were quite twisty and bumpy typical tight back roads out the back of Auckland and it really behaved well and at pace the steering was spot on, after a couple of days I started to really like it even with the cheap feeling plastics inside. I must say too that the white car does not look as ugly but the red one does and I love red Honda's.....Did you experience torque-steer when you floored it in R-mode? I couldn't get on with the over-light steering & clutch, as well as the lack of shove and lag before the turbo kicked in. Gear knob felt plastic and too light, and was slightly too far away for me. Apart from that it was ok - just felt like an airport hire car that could go a bit quicker than most...
I was also trailing it in my car filming so spent a lot of time beside it and behind it getting different camera views so did look at it a lot from all angles which is why I said it needed to fill out those wheel arches a touch and I struggled to hear the downshift blip at times so a slightly louder exhaust to help in the R mode would be good.
