I've seen a Tercel with a DOHC VTEC sticker on both doors similar to where it would be found on the Civic Si. Needless to say, I had to roll up on it and laugh.

BTW, my friend took a spare Si emblem I had lying around and stuck it on his company issued Taurus. He's had that thing on his car for about 2 years now.

Not sure, but probably, considering the NSX is the replacement for the Integra (which had a type R).

no, the _RSX_ is the replacement for the integra. the _NSX_ is a mid-engined supercar of sorts.

Whoops!! You're right. But yeah if you look at Acura.com there is a type S RSX (what once was the type R integra).

almost. the new type r integra (rsx) is only sold in japan right now, and has a bit more power than even the type s rsx.

rumor has it, that the type r rsx and maybe the type r civic will be coming state-side next year.

Type-R Taurus... Ha! My neighbor had a "J-spec" Taurus! Though they've removed that sticker now... I wonder if they'll get an "a-spec" sticker

there is a type R nsx in Japan. I believe it is known as a Honda NSX R. they had a few trims for the NSX, Type S Type S Zero, and R, which was strictly for racing I think. (something around 320hp stock, which is not road legal in Japan)

these are the only REAL type-r vehicles:
civic type r
integra type r
accord euro r
torneo euro r

while the last two are not labeled "type r", they are close.
slightly incorrect

Accord Type R is real


this is off of honda.co.uk, its just not sold here because we never get anything good

also Subaru and Mazda have type R designations as well as some others but i can't remember
Mazda RX-7 Type R (real)
Subaru WRX STi Type R (real)

nissan uses the R like in GT-R and also Mitsubishi like FTO GP-Version R
