must have honda-tech to confirm? (ahahah joke)
i don't know, if its the lastest issue of motor trend i think im gonna look this up myself just to see what it said, because to me all these mags basically say that "...chance of it coming over in US...and IF it does here are the specs..."
i doubt that its coming to north america

ppl are getting all hype over there (im a moderator on that site) and it even says in the article that this hasnt been confirmed by Honda.

Dont expect it to come over- there never has been a CTR in the states and with the lackluster sales of the Si dont expect them to start with the EP3.

I think the argument that because there never has been a CTR in the United States therefore there never will be is a bad argument. Number one, there's only be one previous CTR. Number two just because we didn't get it in one generation doesn't mean Honda planned for NEVER. Just look at the Euro/JDM Accord, which we're getting as the TSX. Or maybe the Stream and Fit

I'm not sure how the CTR will come in at under $20K but if it does sign me up. My best estimate would be 20 or 21-something but maybe Honda realized what a dumb price $19,400 was for the EP3 Si and figured that is what the CTR should cost (wishful thinking but not entirely absurd...).
