Im trying to figure out if this is 100% original or not. Im in the market for another euro at the moment.

Can it really be the first one in AUS?

inputs appreciated./

Yup, probably real. It even has the JDM radio that does not work in Australia! No one would retrofit that into a CL9. haha.

However, in some photos it has the proper stock badge and in the others it has the shitty red Honda badge.

lol "2 litre K20A Engine same as type r civics,integras and S2000s" shiii never knew s2000s came with K20

also would it only be for the JDM factor and higher insurance premiums?

K24 makes peak power and torque lower in the rev range than K20... would be an interesting battle

If I ripped that trunk spoiler off, do you reckon there would be holes there?

Its real.. just the regular badges have been changed for the type r badges.

interior and the window/door trims give it away

How is it fraud? If it was fake you could still import the K24 model that is sold in japan lol... you can import whatever car you want under the personal import scheme

there is no way you can fake a compliance plate and have it road registered.

what im saying is, you can import even a regular K24 JDM honda accord. Even if this was a "fake" euro-R (like the many we already have here in Australia), its still eligible under the personal import scheme.. theres nothing to say you cant bring a K24 model in :/

i dont understand why people are mentioning fraud when the physical car itself shows it is a CL7, not to mention the VIN number on the compliance plate.

Doesn't even come close, the one you listed does not have a spoiler, GPS...

Euro-R listed on carsales is 2004.
