Hi, Jean. Can't speak to
Hi, Jean. Can't speak to other Markets around the world, but what I can tell you is here in the states, One of Honda's, (and Acura's), strong suits is, "For the money" one gets allot, in many cases, a whole lot, of car for the money. If the Type R ever shows up on our shores, in our Market my guess is it will be, "expensive", but also a, "bargain" in relative terms. Another consideration, when looking at overall cost of ownership, (the real yardstick by which to judge a car's economy, or lack there of), Honda always seems to be somewhere at the top of the list when it comes to, " inexpensive cost of ownership". I've owned 2 Honda's and 2 Acura's and currently a '14 SI, so far nothing but routine maintenance required and the 4 I previously owned had well above 160,000 miles and still going strong, when I got rid of them. In all fairness, one of the Acuras I owned was a second gen CL and there were some hiccups on that one, but addressed, resolved and taken care of at Acura's expense with no kicking and screaming necessary on my behalf. That in of itself speaks volumes. I've had Toyota issues, for example, and it was like pulling teeth, or got no satisfaction at all.
