In 2000, Acura made up for their mistake for not sending any Type R's to the U.S. in 1999 by importing 2000 Type R's that year into North America.
Acura had also decided on some wild changes to the Type R to commemorate it's return as now it was offered in two colors, Phoenix Yellow and Flamenco Black Pearl.

 Acura RSX - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the North America and Hong Kong, the vehicle was marketed as the replacement for the Acura-badged version of the Integra, however Honda continues to sell the vehicle as the Honda Integra in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, and elsewhere.
It is available in base and "Type-S" trim levels in North America, and a "Integra iS / Integra Type S" and "Type R" version sold in Japan and Oceania.
Although it has been a strong seller for Honda, the RSX does not fit within the confines of Acura's re-structured market strategy, formulated after the decision to take the Acura brand worldwide (previously, the Acura nameplate has appeared only in North America, elsewhere in the world the same models are sold as Hondas).

The Type-R has only been placed on the Acura Integra which was a mistake IMO (i.e, having the Type-R to be an Acura).
Acura represents a sub-luxury, performance oriented division, but selling a stripped car without A/C or sound proofing means losing 1/2 of that image.
The Accord Euro-R and Integra Type-R are based off the TSX and RSX models from Acura in North America; I do not believe Acura would ever sell a car without sound deadening again.

Unseen, the salesman offered me $17,000 when he heard I had a '97 GS-R. I'm sure when he sees it he'll try to make excuses and lowball it to about $14,000, but you get an idea of the desirability and re-sale value of this car, which is well justified.
