My brother wrote up a thread on the Honda Orthia a while back and I just thought I'd post it on here for anyone who wants to learn more about the newer wagons. Well, here it is:

    And, we can not get them here is the US... So, it kinda sucks to read about...

    Just like the City and the Beat...

    One day when the funds allow me to have a summer home in NZ.. My garage will be full of Hondas that I can not get in the US... LOL

    I am getting a shack with a BIG Barn to Hold all of my toys... Here is my wish list..

    That is my wish list so far...


    Honda USA dropped the ball on a few models for the US...
    But, I am sure our Wago-Brethren can enlighten us on what we are missing out on...

    We get all those models, Orthia's are very common and "essentially" just an EK Civic Wagon crossed with a CRV

    Yea I like the city, what was that car above it?

    One thing the US market got was the accord wagon I believe.

    The JDM market also got Honda Accord US Wagon. Same car just RHD. Also limited numbers of Civic Coupes, they have a Honda of America badge on them.

    The cars above are:
    -Honda Civic Shuttle Beagle (not many red ones around)
    -Honda CRX SIR
    -Honda Orthia
    -Honda City(87-90 or so)
    -Honda City(84-87 or so)
    -Honda Beat

    I heard the eg coupes are really rare in Japan. I like that 87-90 city, is there a turbocharged option or is that just the previous gen?

    I believe my post above yours explains the Civic Coupes ;)

    There was a City Turbo in the previous shape 83/84-87
