Looks like Honda is going to be selling them through their Honda Performance Division for about 6500 bucks.

I want to smash one into a Fit.

FYP.  Although, the Europa would be tough.

Honestly, that engine in an X1/9 would make a killer challenge car (not this crate engine).

Honda says it's for "U.S. grassroots and professional racers for verified, closed-course racing applications through the HPD Honda Racing Line program."

I'm guessing there's not much of a profit margin.

In reply to Snrub :

Possibly. I'd bet it's more of a supply issue coupled with an unwillingness get an EO through CARB and having to absorb the expense for something which will likely sell a low volume. Off road only solves a lot of those issues and if you want to get it certified for on road use there's a process already in place.
