Rumors on the next Type-R

http://www.builtforspeed.biz/modules...ticle&sid=2001
It should be close to that since it has to be better than the Si we get here in the US.

Don't know if any of these rumors are true but a turbo engine from Honda? Yeah yeah I know honda makes turbo 3 cyl. but a high performance turbo 4?? that would be hotness.

I heard a ton of rumors of a turbo 4 for the Acura RDX.
I wouldn't be surprised if they get a cool looking type-R hatch while we got a hot detuned sedan...

Rep Power: 346 You could, but you would have to legalize it to drive it and it would be RHD, so you'd be driving on the far side of the road, the side close to the curb... yeah, not worth it unless you're a millionaire or a hard core Honda fan.

Rep Power: 0 hard to think that honda will make a factory turbo car... but then again, look at the market, a lot of the competitors have force induction cars. dodge srt-4, chevy cobalt, saturn redline, scion tC (optional s/c)... but then again, these cars are not that far in performance from the rsx-s which has no force induction...
