There's an Acura marque in Japan?

They do look nicer though....just the Japanese keeping the good stuff to themselves again.... tongue.gif

i think thats for canada
i recall someone from another forum sayin that they got a csx..and they were from canada
i believe some cars are marketed towards certain countries

i dont think there is an acura in japan.. its all honda i think
acura was made for marketing purposes in the us/north american continent..

correct me if i'm wrong anyone =]

From what I know, Acura is only found in North America and a simple google did find some pages saying the CSX being a Canada model.

The photo has what looks like Japan in the background, so I'm sure the owner just slapped on some Acura badges on it.

However, it is the Japanese model too. Yea, I think it looks better than US versions.

I like the front of the CSX better too, but the rear looks very weird because of the placement of the red and white colors of the tail lights. Yeah I'd still rather go with the CSX than the Civic of the US.

CSX and EL are both such a rip off. they should just either save money and buy a civic, or spend more and get a TL. >.>

also the g can already run mid 13s stock and the hks intakes adds an estimated 10 extra hp and the exhausts add like 8 so yeah it should shove off about 1.5 to 2 sec off my times
