220hp? nice...

Type R will be here in 2010? Cool, this gives me one year to save up for a huge down payment.

LOLOLOL,EVERY DAMN YEAR a CTR coming to the states rumour spreads,and what do we get..... NOTHING! Get used to not having it people.The fanbois are sucking eachothers dicks a lil to early...

when r they going to be here in the us

Any update on this? Is this legit?

damn this car is pimping ima get me one of this
HONDAS ARE BACK..........

man i really dig this civic!
and u hardly c type R's..
this is rare!!

how much???

First of all Kent, a 2.0 liter engine is a 4 cylinder and not a 6 cylinder. Second of all they have been talking about bringing a CTR to the states for years with no results. We are lucky to have gotten a Mugen Si at least, I'm not holding my breath...

Darn, I just bought a 197hp 2009. I'll have top trade it in.

Everyone, hold your horses. There isn't going to be Civic Type-R in the United States. Honda just won't do it. They will CONSIDER bringing the Type-R to the states but that DOES NOT mean they will reach the stateside. Honda can and will consider whatever the hell they want but CONSIDERING and ACTING ON IT are two different sides of a coin.

I'm all for the CTR to reach US..However, who knows, this can be another tease. I'm hopeful BUT i'll believe it when I see one

Man that type R looks freakin sickkkkkk!If it does reach the states, ima try and get one!

The hatch is way Hotter. w aaaaaa yyyyy
To bad they messed up the rear suspension in order to cut cost.
(planing for the recession. since 06)

i dont know....specs that were given on the one commment dont seem that rite....but i dought it...if they do ill be suprised.....and 32 grand for a type r is a lil expensive.........for 32 grand u can geta much faster cr including 350z or g35's.....

This rumor was circulating back in 2007 and this article is sounds like a revival of that rumor

its a nice car with ok specs but its over priced...for 32 g's you can get a lot more car.the bmw 128i with a v6 3.0 engine is a little under 30 g's and the 135i with an inline 6 3.0 engine turbocharged is 35 g's a little more money for a lot more car!

People,

Why in the world would you believe any rumors about honda bringing over the type R?. First it does not resemble our current civic line, the front, the sides( side skirts) and the rear are all different. Stocking parts for this car would be cost prohibitive solely because they do not have the same part numbers as the USDM civics. Honda would not do that, it may come as an acura because it has the european/japanese appearance to it. Prices, our economy: there is no market for these right now, only a few would buy it due to costs $32,000 sounds about right. Look at the civic mugen , never did well at all at $30,000, some dealers still can't get rid of them after 3 years of release. You can still find a brand new mugen right now , even on ebay.
So, honda being as smart as they are will never bring this car over here. The HFP is a complete joke seen that the SEMA show, you will never see that car either, too expensive and it even looks much closer to our usdm civics here. That car was just a silly add ons. Notice the front seats are just from a pulled civic type R civic from japan, it does not have height adjustment on the driver seat because it is a passenger seat on the right side of a japanese model civic.

No. the civic type r will not be released as a "honda civic type r " in the us next year . we will see a much " look a like " car come out next year but it will be offerd as the Acura CSX TYPE S . google it if u want and ull see . it has a similar front end and tail lights . the only this it doesnt have of the ctr is the grill . lips . sideskirts . spoiler . suspension etc, etc. BUT . some of my buddies in canada simply improvise . while there purchasing there wonderful ctr inspired vehicle . they go bananas and order all the ctr cosmetic parts as there salesman is writing there order. so as there writing it they say " ok i want the complete ctr front end including lip grille , bumper . sideskirts , rear bumper with the diffuser , spoiler , rims and last but not least the wonderful " TYPE R" badges that go along the sideskirt trim and on the trunk" it has already been done and let me tell u that it looks amazing in person . so the ctr will not be realesed in the us . BUT there are other options . honda simply wont give us this car simply because they want it for there own simple knowing that there the only ones that have the privlege of having it . and yes i am a type r guru . bye lol

Blah,..
A Type-R "sedan" is like a minivan with a turbo, only a moron will do that.
Now,..if they bring a 2010 Type-R coupe (non-hatch),..I'll buy one.

New R is a joke, US or not. You'd be better off buying an Si. The new R went under massive changes including body, weight, and suspension. It has a new engine (i-Vtec) but it pushes out only 1 more horsepower than the old R. The new body changes add extra weight which make it no faster than the new Si's. The old R has independent rear suspension, aka.. super fun to drive. The new R has rear torque bars, aka.. super stiff to drive. In short, the new R's are slower, heavier, more expensive, and in my opinion dumb looking. just buy an Si.

^^^^^^
dude wat are u crazy ??? the new ctr out handles the honda nsx !!! . yea the 2009 model of the ctr was a disaster . honda got to cocky with it . but the 2010 model is to be said the best ctr ever released . the engine has 240 hp to the wheels!. and because of it being a sedan it handes even better ! . and yes they are faster than the new si's if it can take nsx's and our beloved integra type r ( rsx) wich is has the crown in the honda industry . this ctr is just amazing in all aspects and it has the respect it deserves . as well a few car manufactures are terriffied of this car . i wouldnt blame them . its a real car .

What only 220 hp. thats nothing, but I still going to buy one.

So wait a sec....the 2010 honda mugen WILL NOT be coming out in the US? One minute they say yes, the next they scrap it! Can anyone give me some legit information please.

The CSX type-S is in Canada right now, but only puts out 197hp...Same as the SI, so changing the body kits will make you look like a type-R but about 23hp shy of a real one. By the way in Canada, the CSX type-S goes for 33,500 (candian dollars), imagine what a Type-R will cost. And if you have a problem with a 4 door type-R, just don't buy one rather than insulting the type-R. thanks

I just bought the 2010 SI and i will tell you this car is very quick and paid a hair over 20000. I can only wonder what the tpye r would cost and would it be a better car then what i have. I would like to line then up and see what one is quicker

No Type R for US

Iran accused the United States on Wednesday of "intolerable" meddling in its internal affairs, alleging for the first time that Washington has fueled a bitter postelection dispute. Opposition supporters marched in huge numbers through Tehran's streets for a third straight day to protest the outcome of the balloting.

type R 4 door is ugly its much better the Type-R hatchback for sure may be it sold out here in the us if there an automatic version we wish in the near future honda make it ?

What a great blog! It is a pity that I can not find RRS address. If RRS offers a subscription service, I can easily follow your blog!

The mugen type-r hatchback is wayyyy sexier!!! *sends letter to santa for mugen type-r hatch...

look nigga the si is the best car in handling in everything i always though that it was always going to be the best car honda ever got out in performance in everything so for now there hasnt been a honda car that will top that yet get at me!!!!!!

Looks great but sounds like an under achiever. Plus I've heard this story before about the Type R reaching US shores. Just a dream and a wish.

what month is going to come out?
how much is going to be$?

A type R would be great , but noone let this shit go to ya heads cause honda promises a new type R and look at what we got, NUTHING !

its not going to get here in the US but if it did it would definitely sell. People are spending a few grand just to do the conversions not counting wheels, brembos, shorter final drive, engine start button, seats, etc. the suspension is kind of stiff for most of the US streets. higher octane gas would be ideal for the bump in compression, too. The si is a great car. I think you could have fun modding an si to resemble the type R with simple improvements. keep in mind the euro type R engine is basically the same as US si.
you know what they should do is modify the existing US market Si, paint it championship white, do the wheels, brakes, etc and leave the engine alone. nuff said.

it is interesting and informative article. This has been very helpful understanding a lot of things. wholesale new orleans saints jerseysI’m sure a lot of other people will agree with me.

Uhmmm where have you guys been, the Type R production has been closed down from 2009 there will not be any more production globally due to them trying to facilitate their company goals......sorry to bring bad news. DONT BELIEVE ME? Google this "honda civic type R production discontinued". Apparently due to emission standards they seem to be pursuing hybrid means of performance for a future type R

I love the back of it, especially the nameplate...
I wasn't too impressed by the first generation, but this seems to be a lot closer to what I'd expect... Anyway, thanks for sharing and I definitely visit here more often.
