this is the Type-R for north america... it's basically a USDM FG sedan with K20Z3 (197hp) + 6spd manual, aero kit made by Mugen (full Honda factory warranty). photos are from SEMA 06:

cars cost a lot more in SE asia than they do here.
they wouldn't sell any at 53k and i doubt they'll try.
36ish should see some sales through.
don't forget the sports compact market is already pretty busy in the 40k bracket here. at 40-45, people start looking at wrx's.
at 35-40, people look towards euro hatches.
We are getting the Civic Type R hatch ( 3 door )
Should be something out in January about it, its supposed to be here in June 07. On road for under 50 000. To compete against the other hatches hitting the market.
Information was from honda
Have been after another civic since i sold my 98 vti-r
50k? they are on drugs.
The civic is tipped to replace the type R integra in australia.
That said, the type R integra is around 46000 plus onroads, so your looking at the same sort of money.
this is the three door uk version? so australia will be the first country to get it since its out in uk in marchQuote:

Damn I hope they release that thing in Australia, it looks awesome, they could do more with the current models that are over here I reckon, I mean if they release a Sports or Type R version of the Civic it will grab another segment of the market!
I have always thaught that the should release a sports version of the Euro too, one with the Bodykit and extras on it, sports seats maybe, different displays in the dash etc!

That looks great. You would get a fun ride along with a practical 4 door car. But I dont think they can sell it for more than what the Mazda3 MPS is going for since its essentially still a Civic. Nobody would buy it for 50k
its crazy...to sell over 40k under 40k will be a gd deal
