Has anyone been quoted prices for the accessories yet?? I was quoted some today and the prices are unbelievable eg $695 for the door trims, $895 for front skirt...
I remember reading a post about a special edition model to be released in the future but now I can't find it. Can anyone help me out?
kit pricing sounds about right... i think they told me around 2grand for the modula kit from the factory... n that would sell in higher numbers thant he comparitively rare type r accessories
Hey guys
Does anyone know if any dealership in sydney has these on display yet? i rang rickdamelian and peter warren and they arent getting it till the end of the month.
wow, we have ours on the showroom and have a registered demo!
Such a sexy car, would love to buy one if i have the money available :(
One thing bother me is the weight, with 1343kg is too much for a Type R. The Type S if i remembered is only 1280 if with 154kw and hardly make the 6.6 in 0-100 and 14.8 in 400m o_O This civic type R should be really a Civic Type S since Aus Honda chosen to import it to fit our market over the jap Type R. It just replaces the Integra typeS, our civic type r have even have more luxury goodies than the typeS such as dual aircon, steering wheel audio remote control, cruise control. Is it really nessary to have them for a truly Type R? If Aus honda really wanted to go down this path, they should just have only Civic sedan Vti, Hybrid, Civic Hatch Luxury model? and the JDM type R in our civic line. Atm we have Civic Vti, Vti-L, Sport, Hybrid now Civiv Type R, I wonder how well the Civic Sport going to do with the sales.
After all, the integra type s is gone and the civic type r is a better overall package compared to the type S, i just wish i have the money to buy one now even if it is call the civic type S.
