I'd say market potential. If you read through the topics here in s2ki alone, U.S consumers are hard to please including supposedly car enthusiast. There's always something wrong with the product being brought accross. So the cost of making them legally acceptable here is not worth measly sales.

read all the topics about the Mugen SI, the Nissan GTR, the S2000 CR and the New Accord concept and you'll see exactly why Japan doesnt give us these models.

Too many people Bash the crap out of the few we do get here. "whine whine I wouldnt pay 30k for a civic whine whine cry cry" So why the hell would honda give us something like a TypeR?
