your joking right, I HIGHLY doubt itll come with 4 pistons calipers. THere is rumor itll come with the RXS TYPE-S MOTOR, but i highly doubt it as well, i would expect a 180hp detuned Type-S motor so as not to compete with the RSX sales.

I HIGHLY doubt itll come with 18in wheels either. there is talk of an OPTION for the bigger wheels, but thats all. what you are seeing is a CONCEPT of what itll be like. From my info the mody will stay the same as pictured for the most part, expect moinor changes to the nose an rear, but everything else is still up in the air. if youremember this time last year honda announced their "coupe SI" for 2005, that was very similar, and it never came out.

If honda does come out with this version of the SI , why the fuck would anyone by an RSX S? TRADITIONALLY honda has always tried to keep the sticker price of a civic UNDER 20k. this car will go for 25k+ if they keep everything on it like the brembo calipers , 18 inch wheels, etc.

SO in closing, dont hold your breath, ill belive it when i see it
