They don't have the 'standard' Accord Type R in the States, I believe.

The Euro R (CL7) followed the ATR in 2002 and had a 6 year manufacturing run. It's a great car in my opinion and looks fairly sharp. It uses a K20 engine.

No The Americans call it an Acura tsx. They never got the Euro r.

The Euro R is Japan's version of the Accord Type R.

The CL1 is a Accord Type R with a different accord front and rear to the UK spec.

The CL7 Euro R is a k20 hot version or that accord.

Euro r they go on about is the jap version of the atr. Comes in two styles, accord and torneo, chassis cl1. There's a few differences between the cl1 and the atr.

Mines is here.

It is the same as us in the UK/Europe as we like to use the ATR intake manifold on our Prelude's.
