Honda says it will be faster than the old NSX Type-R

No fair Honda, we want that too.

Will have R button to mimic BMW's M button.

Did I mention that we need it here too?

Pardon me, but are those taillights fully integrated in that spoiler, or do my eyes deceive me?

Yes they are, in theory this is still a pre-production concept, but Honda people say that there chances for those lights to make it on the production car.

When will America get it? Or is Honda just jerking us off?

I...actually want a normal coupe version of this. Not a hatch. I think it would look pretty amazing with a stretched rear-deck.

Well, since we don't get the regular hatchback, that the Type R is based on, I'd say never. But Honda said they could bring the next generation Civic hatchback here.

I love modern taillights. It makes the highways look like the Tron universe at night.

Yes, if:

- next Civic hatchback comes to the US

- the said hatchback will get a Type R version

- said version gets green light from American Honda, to be sold here too
