All the kids who grew up longing for one are finally old enough / have the financial means to buy one.

Personally I have an Integra GSR and I love it, it's not the fastest car in the world but that high-winding engine and the ability to tackle corners so well (for a FWD car, anyway) is super addictive even if it is just a daily that gets beat on every day.

Can't imagine how much better a Type R feels considering it is essentially a fully tuned race car from the factory that you can race on the weekends and comfortably (on A/C equipped models, at least) drive to work on Monday.

That being said, I am also sure there is some kind of collector value to them...
