I was driving by a local Honda dealership here in Japan when I noticed they got the new Honda Civic Type-R. I stopped by and snapped some quick pictures. Enjoy For all my Japan pictures go here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=2105077

That's yen, smarts. 2,800,000 yen is about 25 grand.

I'd want:

Steering wheel. Door panels.

 

Wait a little longer and you can order them from honda

 

Getting an authentic Type R from Japan to the states will be a nightmare. All kinds of federal safety requirements and emissions to be met among other things.

 

nice pix bro

There is alot of work, and will cost about 6 grand. PM if your SERIOUS about getting info.

 

Man if that car ever dropped here in the states on a monday id be driving it monday night.

 

Thanks fr the pics man, car looks great!

I know its a little off topic but does anyone know if the JDM ITR Brembo brakes would fit with a 17" wheel setup?

I know you're joking, but seriously, 25 grand isn't a bad price at all. Compare that to the UK Type-R which has the same engine as the US Si: $37,509.18 US dollars. Ouch.

 

My pants got tight.

 

is this like an armed forces thing why american people live in japan ? God I envy you. I would get visual boners everyday

 

I still dont understand the 4 doors thing

BASTARDS!
2,850,000.00 JPY = 24,795.52 USD
