YOU CAN KISS THE RSX GOODBYE




SAY HELLO TO THE NEW OFFICIALLY HONDA INTEGRA TYPE R

I DONT KNOW IF HONDATECH KNOW THIS BUT HONDA HAS DECIDED TO DROP THE ACURA RSX FOR THE 2006 LINE UP. HONDA REPORTEDT THAT THE RSX HAS DROPPED IN SALES DRAMATICALLY SINCE THE TL AND RL MODELS CAME OUT. MOST IMPORTANTLY THEY STATED THAT THE RSX WAS LOOKING LIKE
" A FISH OUT OF WATER"

SO NOW HONDA IS GOING TO OFFICIALLY TAKE OVER AND BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL HONDA INTEGRA DESIGNER. WE ALL NEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEND BUT WHAT I WAS SURPRISED IS THAT THEY ACTUALLY DROPPED THE ACURA NAME AND NOW ITS OFFICIALLY THE HONDA INTEGRA TYPE R!!!

you can read more about it on HONDA TUNNING mag

 

type rrr is coming? wtf..

 

What month of Honda Tuning? I won't believe it until I see the Honda Integra Type-R on the showroom floor at the dealership.

 

Wouldn't it be great...

 

umm wtf i never heard about the type r coming only that the rsx would be discontinued.

 

rsx is done cuz honda wants to focus on acura being the luxury brand.
suppose to be replaced with a TSX coupe.
there is no type r coming to the states!
Honda Tuning has nothing but speculations as well. end of story
this has been covered a million times already so please lock this thread moderators

Thats what I heard too. Sucks though.

 

i heard that Honda is bringing the name Acura to Japan too so yea..

 

Its never coming, so give up

 

i only wish the ITR would come back to the states

if (big IF) it does happen...i'd get rid of my car in a heartbeat

 

It's been printed every year and still has yet to happen... Like it was said above; I'll believe it when I see it...

 

won't happen.

 

The whole reason they cut it is because Acura wanted to move up to Benz and like Lexus class, and the Civic Si is the same exact thing as the RSX just different body.

 

why not scan the mag and show it here?

kinda hard to believe because its not even posted in http://www.vtec.net
if it happen then im gonna have to trade my car in for the type R

 

i think it has something to do with the strict emission control in the U.S. making it difficult to bring the type-r here. Keeping the cost down also is difficult. Everybody gets the type-r but us....boowhoo

 

2nyceImports you are on crack... say hello to the TSX coupe based

TSX replacement


also speculate 2.3 turbo for motor with sh-awd as option

Sorry, but it doesn't even look like a coupe, more like they welded the rear doors shut.

 

LOL the pic is of the sedan sorry if I didn't make that clear
