I like it. It makes me think four door RSX by the way the body is shaped looking at it from the side.

sweet looking car, too bad europe is only getting the typeS

autoexpress:
"But fans of the previous-generation Type R will be disappointed. A Honda spokesman told us there was no longer a market for the car, and the more comfort-oriented Type S will be the fastest model. "

The front looks like a
(that's a pic of the mazda protege mp3 in case you didn't notice).

Sorta like the new Mazda 6 too up in front.

We all know the back looks like a 97-99 Camry.

I dig it but i wonder when they are going to bring it to the USA.
and if they do what motor do you think they'll drop into it.
here's what I think
if it's a 4 cylinder S2000 motor(that would be crazy)(I'd place an order if they come out with that)
V-6 motor(who knows )

I don't care what they call it or how it performs.

It still looks like a civic to me.
