Nice. I remember one time, actually I forgot, but it was pretty dumb.

I know the spray nozel works great on tailgaters...Covers their windshield real nice. Now I just have to figure out how to plumb the back with inkjet ink.

You puncture a hole into the inkjet cartridge. You dump all that ink into a 20 fluid ounce bottle and set it next to the intercooler with a zip-tie thing so the ink doesn't explode from high heat levels. Then you redirect the washer fluid line into that bottle of ink, and tape it on realllll good with duct tape. Voila, you have yourself a homemade uhhh tailgater defense mechanism. Kind of reminds me of some video I saw last night where the guy said, "Take this, my windshield washer attack" and then the other Japanese guy was like "STOP THAT!".

Here's the video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKeJGm33C2s

First, no other sedans have them. Its a cool idea but I don't really see as that necessary. I have a sedan now and don't find that I would want a rear wiper. I have owned hatchbacks and even on those cars I'll use it maybe once a year or something (I live on east coast, not CA)

Second, the Evo went all out to save weight: aliminum parts, body panels, thinner glass, no inner trunk liner on trunk lid, hollow cams, magnesium valve cover, etc., but added a wiper that would get very limited use. Recall that the Acura Type R removed the rear wiper from their hatchback to save weight...

Anyone else notice this strange feature or is it just me?

my 2001 integra type R came with a rear wiper. it was only the japanese version that didnt come with one

And then somebody with a little bit of common sense saying, "Naw, dude it ain't got a rear wiper."
