Default Honda RSX?

I spotted this today. Ever seen one like this?
I have seen the Acura "Civics" that come down from Ontario, but never a Honda RSX. Maybe it's just re-badged.

Probably just re-badged. Those are called Honda Integra in many places around the world.

I'm with Jim, the owner just changed he emblem. Because as Jim said when the rsx is sold as a Honda in Japan and such it's called an integra.

except Ontario, Canada eh? Lots of shoppers from TO drive Acuras here in Western NY, They shop here to get away from the 8% Ontario and 7% Federal sales tax.

^youre right. Canada too.

Theyre just made to compete with the luxury car market in north america: mercedes, bmw, without the japanese badge.

Honda-Acura
Toyota-Lexus
Nissan-Infiniti
(Mazda-Amati, but they didnt go anywhere with it)

But in Europe the cars are call "Honda NSX", "Honda RSX", and CL is just an Accord.
