^ but it doesn't meet emissions standards Honda Civic Type R axed in UK | Autocar
the K20A in Civic Mugen RR was rated at 240hp...so is the F20C but going over that w/o FI while staying under the new emission standards will be very difficult. Quote:

Really wish they brought this here, I would take a SI version if they didn't release Type R here over my GTI any day ;(
...I have a thing for Hothatches ;D | really? I think it's a ugly mess and reviewrs like top gear and evo magazine (known for nuthugging Hondas) thinks its the worst type R ever made.

If this thing in fact makes it to Canada and the United States, it will provide a much needed boost to Honda's image in the North American sport compact community. Things have certainly gone downhill for Honda since the mid 00s, resulting the death of the JDM Civic (and a poorly designed and constructed non-JDM variant), petrol powered JDM Accord, S2000, Integra and R models.

^ I wasn't referring to the OP's article when I made my comment, but rather to other articles that suggest the possibility of a CTR in North America, such as this one: Honda Civic Type R Spied Testing on Nurburgring | AutoGuide.com News
That is all. Have a Kit Kat or something.
