Honda Accord Euro Type R!

For those of you who are concerned about the HP of your TSX....Check this out!

http://www.rsportscars.com/eng/cars/accord_euro-r.asp

Just to give you a run-down:

220HP

Torque 152 lb-ft

14.9 1/4mile

0-100km/h in 6.9 sec

It has the 2.0 litre engine from the S2000 in it, not the 2.4 that the standard Accord Euro/TSX have.

This thing flies!

Only available in Japan as far as I know but can be imported into Australia on special order from various Japanese importing companies (same as Nissan Skyline GT-R, Toyota Supra Twin Turbo, Mitsubishi GTO and just about anything else!)

It's not JUST a European Honda Accord

it's THE European Accord....with a nicer interior and a slightly different engine tuning...

For those of you that have done the rebadging. Got a few questions about those Recaro seats for you:

1) Can you get them?

2) Will they fit in our CL9? I'm also assuming that they are not power seats as well?

3) Cost-wise, would it just be better/cheaper to go with aftermarket Recaros or Brides?

Thanks!
