It doesn't mean it will be what you see. However, the consensus is that there will be 6 speed and LSD but no Brembos.
It pretty much sounds like a mix between the 2002+ Integra Type R and the 2002-2004 RSX-S. I wouldn't put it past them to use much of the same parts. Saves time and money on redesign.
Probably going to be built on the same platform? I hope so. Might mean existing camber kits, control arms, sway bars and other stuff will bolt right on. If it uses a K20 engine that is like the K20A, K20A2, K20Z1 then you've already got some engine mods like cams (for sure), turbos, intakes, etc. Of course, this is all speculation.
They've got forced induction cams for the RSX-S... Mmm... Turbo...

Rep Power: 311 Price point will be set way to high for most kids to afford (unless their parents buy it or something). Hell, for the price they will probably offer for it you could get a nice RWD car!
That would be sweet if Honda came out with a RWD besides the S2K.....I like Honda - but they are just getting more and more pricey for what you get.

True true. The Civic will move upmarket, so the top of the line will be expensive. However, I think they have learned their lesson with the comparisons w/ the Tc and RSX.

Keep it another year, offer LSD, then discontinue in 2007.

Rep Power: 304 Here are some pics of the RS-X prototype.
Here is what the Acura product developer said
"that it's 2.0 liters, and produces about 200 horsepower, with a red line around 8000 rpm" "Again, it's a prototype, but about 200 horsepower, a lot of torque, and no need for LSD."

I post this to say maybe Honda will make the civic concept si pretty much like it looks like as a concept with all the power Honda says it will deliver.
