unfortunately I can see more possibility of THIS car making it to AUS than the Euro Type R.. unfortunate only because i'd prefer a 3-door or Coupe - 220PS K20 would go down nicely though :P but when u consider the financial reasoning, is definately a possibility to produce this car and sell for ~40K compared to the Euro R version to sell in AUS you wouldnt get much change out of 50k..
Hahaha That would be classic if it came to Australia. Then you would see all the ricers who bought K20 Civic Sports try and make there car look like one. And wouldn't you be cut if you spent all that money on a Sport and the Type R comes out.
AGREE with kyle...civic sport juz came out and if the type r is cmin too y spend all that money on sport and accesories...might as well buy type r four door...i think the 4 door looks better than the hatch!!
might be a similar scenario to the dc5s. civic sports is cheaper, with leather sunroof etc (integra luxury). civic type r loses the leather sunroof etc but gains performance goodies (ITR). no reason why they wouldnt be able to coexist. a softer k20 for those who arent fussed with speed and/or prefer auto (not many ppl here i imagine) and the hottie for those who want more speed.
