anyone heard the rumor that a rsx type-r is coming over to the u.s?

 

heard of the rumor but im gonna have to say it will never come to the states. rumor has it that the rsx is dead next year but thats just a rumor. thye say they are killing it because of the civic si

 

I've heard the rumor, but i don't believe it. If Acura/Honda ever brought the Type R over to the US, it would be a bad idea. Due to all the extras that the type r has and the type s doesn't, (brembos, recaros, in dash navi/dvd, diff. rims etc..) it would cost quite a bit more. I would think that it would be in the $28,000+ range, and for the money, people could start looking at cars in a completely different class, for instance an Evo or STi, a G35 or 350z, the performance/looks are not up to par with the higher $$ range vehicles that you could compare the Type R to. Plus i've also heard that 2006 is the last year for the RSX, it's either going to get canned or re-designed for a 2008 model. Just my .02

 

Nope.Never.Not Happening.Not a Chance in Hell.Don't Believe the Hype.

The close you'll get to the ITR is the o5-o6 RSX-s. Also, the rsx-s is not being killed off, details show that it'll be back in o7 redone all over and more upscale classier (were it should be).

 

I don't think its going to come out with the new si coming out i think that's the closest we'll get.

 

website or place where u get your info. do they have any pictures of it.

 

Ther RSX-R has what 220hp? The new ones here were bumped up to 210 right?
Were not that far off.

 

Don't you just love this "Type-R" hype...

 

the Type-R is like the MR, its a upgraded version of integra and the MR is a upgraded version on a evo

 

look here http://www.vtec.net/modelmatrix/

 

Yeah but they don't sell the Integra anymore, it was replaced by the RSX.

 

no, it was just renamed RSX like the new Accord Type-R was renamed TSX when it got to the states

 

I know what Type-R is ^^;;

 

so u were talkin about ricers huh, i thought so but i didnt want to jump down your throat about it

 

The new 2006 Civic Si has been shown. Its more powerful than the current Si. Check out the site: http://automobiles.honda.com/civics/index.aspx at least take a look at it.
