Type R Civic Si
anyone know if the 200 hp type r civic si will come to the states? i heard mights but does anyone know for sure. i heard they wont because civic si type r > RSX type s and they dont want to compete with the acura rsx type s, probably bring the down sales of rsx's. someone let me know if they know for sure wuts going on w/ the type r civic si

This has been discussed a THOUSAND times on ephatch....and every time we've all come to the conclusion....NOPE!
The U.S. has too strict emessions rules, sales would decline for the RSX (and Type S), sales of the Si would SERIOUSLY drop (if it weren't totally replaced by the Type-R), and it's just not practical. In the U.S. "Civic" means "ECONOMY".....to the GENERAL population. If a "Civic" had 200+ hp.....that would TOTALLY mess with people's minds
lolSo...yeah...prolly not.
