Anyone? If so, what are your experiences?

is it the same as the US SI version?

Type R is basically an SI with a few upgrades as far as I can tell. Either way, Civics are great cars. get one :) Fast little fuckers. Great handling ( a bit too responsive in the steering but you get used to it) and great gas mileage.

Even my DX can kick up some dirt. 115 HP and the fucker gives ya whiplass if ya slam that throttle. The SI 165 HP would be that much more fun :)

The type R has driving system then the SI, and also it has 200HP..

Just buy the damn car lol. :pimp

This has a lot of Civic components, but a nicer package than the Honda version:http://a332.g.akamai.net/f/332/936/1...20021937-E.jpg


2005 Acura RSX Type-S


210 HP engine and superb handling. I have one myself.

I have a 1999 EX and I wouldn't trade it in for the world. You can't go wrong with this car, any model or year.

I have a 2004 one and I just love it.
Drove the Boxster the Z350 and the RX8 before I got it, and it is the better one :thumbsup

ahhhhh gotcha.

Nope i own one of these http://www.thisisthenortheast.co.uk/...geot206gti.jpg civic gives it a good run dunno what is faster havent had a chance to go full on with a type r

its a rice rocket

I like the looks of the Civic more, besides that, here in The Netherands they don't sell the brand acura.

Wow sounds impressive:)

Especially since the Z350 is priced 20K euro more :)(civic 30K euro here(36K USD))

The Z350 is just a bit better, but the extra 2 seats in the Typer-R make it a much better car.
I was going for the Focus RS at the time, but they wanted me to wait 4 months, so the second choice was the type-R.

lovely.... i hope , i can own one

Too much gas for what it does...not bad tho

I know the kids around here love to put Type R stickers on there little rice burners. I guess it makes them go faster.

There's only "R" you should be thinking about...

Happy 4th everyone! I'm finally packed and OUT THE DOOR!

I'm not gonna spend 45K euro on a car. Besides that, the fuel price is here around 1.32 EURO a LITER...

The R32 is an amazing car as well, will go faster then the type-R, will cost more, and it is German.

But if you had a Suzuki R750 you would have known that the Type-R is better then the R32 :winkwink:

:1orglaugh

I actually HAD a GSXR750. Traded that in for another Honda R, the RC51.

As for cars, I drive and Accord and own 3 VW project cars. I'm not hating on Honda, just prefer the VW...mmmmmm, all wheel drive.

NOW I'm out the door...

Any way, I would go for the Porsche Boxter:

:winkwink:

LOL :1orglaugh

I had the GSXR750 as well, that is way I prefer a car that has no Turbo in it, it just feel better :winkwink:

And the all wheel drive just make life easier, I don't like it that way :pimp

HOW MANY TIMES CAN ONE SINGLE PERSON MISSPELL A FUCKING WORD ???

I have a 1.6 Civic VTI 160 HP .

he thats funny, I just testdrove one last week ;)))

Ive got the Honda S2000 I think its a great car

Honda has become a popular choice here in Asia and not penetrating the US market.

:smokin

I still prefer the older version.

No shit:)

i got an 02 in desert silver. fun car for only 22K

The ultimate "R":

Skyline R34 GTR VSpec II

Nothing compares!!!!

:firehair

i dont think acura exists outside of the us.

Acura is US only. Everywhere else it's Honda. Just like:

Infinity = Nissan

Lexus = Toyota

US name, Japanese car. Done this way to sell for higher prices. Honestly,
who would pay 36k for a honda, toyota, or nissan (other than the Skyline).

yeah, thanks

Yep, too bad they don't make them any more :pimp

A civic Type R is 32.000 EURO here...Which is around 38.000 US dollars :)

But I like japanese cars. Most of them are better then the US cars....
