A guy I know says his sources are telling him no Si in the states and, for turbo engines, no 2.0, just efficent small displacement turbo engines. I hope not but it does stay with the stereotypical theme (economical and efficent) Honda has envisioned for the states for decades.

Now I'm reading it is coming to the US

yup, but they didn't say if it was going to be 'as tested' here. hoping we don't get a watered down 'ex' version

It could have AWD, 300WHP and cost only $25K I still wouldn't want that pile of shit.

Honda you suck at designing cars.

so probably a 2018 model...
and

Pricing isn’t something Mendel was willing to discuss yet but he indicated that a major factor will have to do with the British Pound vs U.S. Dollar exchange rate at the time, with the new Type R being manufactured in the UK.

so it will be about as reliable as a land rover :/
