Either Honda has BSed this information for the new Civic, or they're making a major change to other cars. Think about it, why would they want their Civic to compete with Acura's RSX-S?

I think Honda is going to change the RSX around a bit, I wouldn't be surprised at all if the S2000 found a new engine as well

Hmmm i dunno... I doubt that F20 will go anywhere else other than in an S2000.

Umm, the S2000 doesn't use the F20 anymore:

it's a 2.2 liter now

i wouldn't doubt honda dropping the RSX in their attempt to move acura more upscale.

I smell rice and super glue...

Still got a long way to go to match my 700 lb-ft of rear axle torque ;)

Honda should stick to making cheap reliable cars instead of trying to lure highschoolers with artificial bling.

Oops, forgot something:
