Rumoured 2013 Civic Type R

[jeremy_74]

Has anyone heard anything about it? I have seen some pictures on a few sites of the "new" Civic type r. Basically a 4dr version of the old one with different bumpers, the usual type R gear (seats/rims/badges) and apparently the motor is a down-tuned version of the old motor featuring a small turbo charger.

Will Australia get this?

They are only going to a turbo charger to save on emissions.
