The point was not that they are not available TO BE ORDERED by the general
public, but that they are not really for sale to the general public - as
apparently no dealers in the Midwest anyhow, would stock them. (we went to
several) To me, this makes the likelihood of anyone other than a racer
purchasing the car almost non-existent. I am saying that classifying this
a "showroom stock" car is not really accurate because you won't find it in
showrooms (as opposed to the Type-R Integra, which was in stock at the local
Acura dealer for 5-6 months). This is just my opinion of course, based on
my experiences - your results may vary.
