Were did you come up with that

The only reason I ask is because all my Japanese import video's that have the RSX in them still sport the RSX emblem.
This is off topic but:

I don't suggest you do this, but in some other cars I've found that switching to a slightly lower viscosity fluid helped when cold.

What you can do however is to use double clutching until the car warms up in order to get it into gear easier. Clutch in a couple of times while stopped and it'll slide into 1st very nicely.

And they've been making the Integra since '89 or '90. That's a lot longer than 8 years.
I think he was referring to the fact that the Integra went from 1994 until 2002 before we saw any changes.

If they offered a Monte Carlo Blue I'd wait another 2 years, but I have a feeling that would just be too easy

I think I'll actually try to fight off the urges and wait until I know what will be out for 2005 before I order one, but it would definately be sweet if Honda released the info early, they'd have another order in for one.

dont expect ANY changes for the '05 mechanically.

they may offer different colors/interior but I highly doubt it - what with introducing Rio Pearl in '04.

btw...Monte Carlo Blue is no longer an option - it got killed off last year when they introduced Royal Navy Blue Pearl as its replacement.

I was talking about the Integra's 1994 to 2001 run with the same body style. Sorry for the confusion.

Yes it is, hence why they call it "American Honda" duh. They just call it a Japaneese company so they won't be connected with American engineering. It's all a ploy. All the Hondas sold else where and not in the US are really made by Kia.

What? My dealer said there will be no 2005 S2K's. The 04's are the last of them, and he can get me a good deal on an 04.
