What is so special about the type R anyways is it like the difference between GT and Cobra Z-28 and SS ? I dont know that much about imports.

You cant get Phoenix Yellow on any other Integra either. Plus the tasty black suede interior with red stitching goes without saying also. And the beautiful gunmetal wheels. Mmmmmmm.

A suspension setup that makes it one of the best road-race cars ever produced.

it is without a doubt the best handling FF car ever made.

out of the box power and handling are perfect which is why you sometimes see people racing them stock because their suspension was engineered very well and with a good flowing header cams and straight through exhaust (those are stock) they put out decent numbers.
