    There was supposedly a release of the Civic Type R coming to the
    states a few years ago?? there is a rumor that the Civic R will be
    coming in the new Si format...

    Yes, but not until 3 days after you buy a lesser Civic.

    That's what happened to me back in '92, when I bought my Prelude Si.
    3 DAYS later, I read in Auto Week that they are going to bring the
    VTEC here. 8(

    Why bother with the Civic when you can that engine on the Acura Type-S.
    Considering the quality of that 210hp engine and 6spd tranny, I doubt
    Honda will make much of a profit by dropping it into a lower priced
    Civic. That engine is too fast for the Acura, that it currently sits in,
    it'd be worse in a Civic.
