I don't even think that most Honda dealerships would be fully-equipped to handle the maintenance of the Type R. Most buyers of the Civic Type R will most likely resort to specialist tuning shops to maintain their car. <br /><br />Unless Honda will bring the upcoming Accord with the 2.0L turbo engine similar to the Type R, you are at the mercy of Honda since it is the only car that has that engine available locally. This is quite similar to when Nissan brought a small number of Sylvias locally a few years ago. <br /><br />In the case of the WRX and WRX STi, their engines are shared across different platforms. The EJ25 is a proven workhorse and is the powerplant of the previous generation WRX STi, Legacy GT, and older Forester XT. For the WRX, its FA20 engine is shared with the current Forester XT and also shares similarities with the non-turbo engine of the BRZ/86.
