Default the civic type R

I dont know if many of you follow motor trend very closely. I read it pretty closely, sometimes I just run through the pages...but I was on the web site, and look here...

http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...vic/index.html

ahh yes. The civic type R. motor trend says it will be here and I very rarely see motor trend wrong. Sometimes they are off on there dates, but hardly ever wrong. The day these come to the states, I will own one. All hands down.
I also have a hard on for the Integra type R.

it's all trendy man.. who the hell is going to buy a new car and throw a HMT kit on it?

It's a good ------- thing I don't plan on ever purchasing any cars that are under 20 years of age.. well maybe a nice 4g accord.

its not ever coming because they would have to sell it for the same price as a RSX to keep people from buy a SI over an RSX. just doesnt make business sense. i wouldnt be surpised if they phased out the S2K and it would make a reapprearance as a Acura model, just a thought?

Those things are still ------- butt *** ugly, I dont care how many lips/spoilers and side skirts honda puts on them, even with the fancey R badge, they simply look like ----. I'd roll a old 98 ITR anyday over that thing.

But, I'd love to get my hands on a K-series
