Is there a way to convince the US to import the CTR? I read there's going to be a GT version of it too. I don't see a good reason for our government not to import it.

I don't think it has to deal with our government. I think Honda just realized that with the sales of last gen's si hatch, that they would try a coupe, and look at how the SI was/is still on back order. I just don't think there is enough support for a hatch in America, but in Europe, that's another story. Personally, I like the hatch minus the rear end, it just looks funky, but I would still drive the **** out of it.

my only issue with the EP was the look of the shifter(ya it felt better to drive) and the motor with no aftermarket.

I already e-mailed Honda Europe and asked them what modifications would be needed to the CTR to make it US street legal, they told me since the car was not 'finalized' yet they couldnt give me a definitive answer. They said once it is released, e-mail them again and they will be able to give me a realistic idea.
I would like to import one when I pay off my Si, but we will see how that goes. A man can dream right?
