it appears as though there is...

 

hello, and welcome to last week

 

Yes, there is. Not in the US though.

The Accord Euro R is what you'll see it referred to as.

 

hmm i was lookin at that geocities link. an accord type r goes to 60 in 7.7 EH?.. quite slow if u tell me

 

Accord Type-R: 1998-2002 Accord sold in Europe with H22A.
Accord Euro-R: Same as Type-R but sold in Japan

This generation, the Accord Euro-R has a K20 with 220HP and is sold in Japan and Europe.

But either way:

 

We do get the new ATR as the Acura TSX here in the US.

 

yeah thats with the handbrake on.

 

:slap:

I'm so sick of correcting people on this, no offense. I need to set it up as the canned text.

1) There is no Accord Type-R anymore.
2) The Accord Euro-R, which you probably refer to, is NOT the Acura TSX. The Euro-R has a 220 horsepower K20.
3) The Acura TSX is the Accord 24S in Europe and Japan.

 

K20 Engine? I thought it was the F20B?

 

The F20B is out of production.
