Considering the poor sales of the Si, and the fact that they're probably bringing the RSX-R I would guess no.

evolutionimports.com - but theyre $30k, DONT have recaros, A/C and other things......its basically a Civic SI with 5lug and an RSXR Motor. its a ripoff. its LHD too, so you dont even get the bling factor.

For that kind of money you can get an S2000 these days. What would I want with a hatchback. Even though I would like to have a CTR I would only pay 22-23k for one.

I dont think they are bringing the DC5-R here.

Not that magazines are a good source, but I've read many references to the possibility that the RSX-R may come to the US. Combined with the fact that they already brought the ITR to the US previously they know it will sell, they don't know if the CTR will sell.

Who the hell wants a RHD car in the US anyways? RHD = dumb. *everything* is setup for a LHD car here.

Actually its 25k....so you get a CTR motor, CTR body kit, CTS suspension for 1k more than an RSX-S, not to mention you have a car tht your not gonna see drive past you on the street. yea, some ripoff.....

You could get that car from them for that price or you can do this.

Buy a Civic Si for around 16k here ( new)
Buy a RSX-S motor/tranny/ecu for around 5k,
lsd. hid, 15oo.oo
ctr complete body kit for 1000.

total= 23,500 plus another 2ooo to install all the parts and paint.
so for 25,5oo you get a ctr. enjoy.

Nope, no proof I'm just adding to the gossip and rumours based on personal observation. There were a lot of 2002's left on the lots with deep discounts, this didn't happen with the 99-00 Si. And the 2003's are descently cheap too. Only recently the popularity of the EP seems to be coming up(now that they're cheap).
