Mild tuning to the Cobra will get you 100 HP more; that is not possible in the Civic without big dollars or limited engine life. Either way, the Type R is slower.

      @A Fera Modify it then. With upper and lower pullies, bigger throttle body, CAI, longtubes, x-pipe, cat back, plus a tune (for not that much $ per horsepower gains)...the terminator lands you in the 470 to 500 whp range. Stock Eaton porting gets you to 530 whp/tq. That's far more than what the average Coyote makes at the wheels. Even a 3rd gen Coyote's 460hp only equates to 410-415 whp. Indeed with full bolt-ons they can reach 460whp which is great for a NA engine, but average torque will be a full 100 lb ft below the Terminator as the Terminator would have useable power and torque across the entire rev range vs the peaky Coyote.
      And lastly, you have a very important car from Ford history. It's the pioneer of supercharged pony cars from the factory. They hold value longer than the Coyotes do. 2011-2014 1st gen Coyotes have already fallen below the value of Terminators. Why? Well as awesome as the Coyote may be, they are still a "seen everywhere car" vs the Terminator's "unicorn" effect. At the end of the day, the new 5.0s are awesome engines that finally bring back the performance bang the old school ones enjoyed in the late 80s/ early 90s but they are GT Mustangs. Highly popular with high production numbers each year. The Terminators were somewhere around 12000 units at best and if you have one of the rare color combos (Mystic, Comp Orange, Oxford white, Sonic Blue, etc.), that number becomes 200s to 1200s. Distributed across 50 states...minus those wrecked, and you have a car you won't see too much of on the streets.

Also it didn't help that Ford sold a ton of these for a very long time, meaning you saw them everywhere - which made a fairly bland car (in my opinion) super common, so you saw them everywhere. Also it didn't help that most of these were the lower end models (same for the GM's), and in the low end getup, they're even more bland.
