Major Features of the type V:

- The world's first variable gear ratio steering (VGS) system

- Specially developed chassis (including damper units, stabilizer and limited slip differential exclusively designed for the model) in order to best complement the VGS

- Exclusive "type V" steering wheel

- VGS badge (on rear)

As for why it isn't offered in the US - probably because Honda doesn't think it would be profitable (which may or may not be true).
