no its just you..lol

[xclusive_eg8]

lol, just think itl look unique and good

[vtecraze]

I'm pretty sure this car was built as a collaboration with Rover back in the 1990s....

[~Sp33~]

It's actually on a Domani platform which wore several badges in different countries.

[mugen_ctr]

since wen did honda ever cheap out??? lol, seriously, why use another manufacture an re badge it, when theres a perfectly good chassis to use!

[~Sp33~]

It has nothing to do with cheaping out. It was Honda's chassis that Rover was using (before they were purchased by BMW).

[mugen_ctr]

ah that explains alot.... never knew honda loaned out/sold off chassis to other manufactures

[TheSaint]

what engine does this thing have?

engine bay photo?

i love the look ... 4 doors with a long style hatch = win

Most manufacturers have done some form of badge engineering in their time. It's usually a trade of machinery and manpower for design and image.

Sorry, don't own a engine bay photo yet, too dirrty hehe but it has a 1500 Econo Vtec engine, 115 horsepower i think, very cheap car to go just A to B, low gas mileage :))

[TheSaint]

hrm .... D15 vtec perhaps?

we dont get them in australia

[espionage85]

thought id share this, as my brother isnt going through with the conversion anymore..
to hard to source the parts

[sno]

that looks abit like a pulsar SSS

That's an Acura EL/domani/Gemini front, i like how they're a bit more aggressive than the UK Civics.

[big tone]

they did the same here in oz with the old teg.. once they sold too many in oz the rebadged (rover) and kept selling...
