I attended the Cars, Bikes & Coffee event at Honda’s Torrance headquarters this weekend, and there was a TCR car on display outside the main building. I thought I’d share! It was very impressive — wouldn’t it be cool if JAS offered a road version?

Yes, it was fantastic. I was pleasantly surprised considering it’s essentially just a grand lobby, and not a dedicated museum. It’s a no-brainer for all Honda enthusiasts in Southern California.
The Honda Heritage Center in Marysville, OH is also essentially a grand lobby as well. My son and I visited from Cincy and it was pretty cool. I'm not sure I would travel from some great distance to check it out though as it only took maybe 20 minutes to go through. They used to offer tours of the actual assembly plant, but they no longer offer them.

I wonder if that front upper grill will be available to purchase through HPD or anything. I quite like the lack of "Type R" on the front.

Its not. The car is made through JAS Motorsports but even if this was through HPD they don't sell parts to you unless you are part of a race team. Believe me I tried ?
