Looks more like a Civic crossed with a 2000 model Audi A4.

One night, at a bar located in a back alley, a Honda Accord sat there drinking a beer. It was almost closing time and just as the bartender was about to say 'last call' in came something the Accord would never forget. It was a beautiful Audi A4. Now, the Accord usually doesn't go for German girls, but seeing as how it was last call and there weren't very many others around he took a shot. After a few pick up lines like, 'who changes your oil' and 'where do you park at night', he managed to hit it off with her. After a wild night of a little bumper to bumper, wheel touching action they went their seperate ways.

9 months later.......out came this.....

Those headlights look like they are the exact same as those in the Gen 2 TL.

It's actually a Type R. I was going to buy one if I had stay in the UK longer. They were hard to find and expensive. It has a H22 under the hood. They made them from 98 to 03.

Jeremy Clarkson gave a great review of the car a few years back on 4car. It outperformed 2 other cars they put in the test.

one of my favorite usdm accords...

but the accord type-r is a mix of 5th and 6th generation usdm accords, specifically the front and rear ends...

Accord Type R =/= Accord Euro-R

Accord Type R - exclusive in Europe and only produced for one model cycle
Accord Euro-R (CL1) - began in '98 after the Type R, sold in Japan ONLY, but also exported to certain asian countries....

the name is actually confusing at first since the Euro-R was never sold in Euro

two different animals....Although I think they both sport a version of the H22, but from what I remember, the CL1 Euro-R was more like the real type R since it was a much better performer

Yes the Euro-r had a better engine 220hp vs 212hp. What I could never figure out was why the type r was in europe and the euro r was in japan. The type r is by far my favorite accord. If I return to europe I will own one.
