在过去的几十年里,Honda生产了许多传奇车型,尤其是Type R车型。不过,如果你能在一个地方看到全部Type R车型,而且都是全新的车况,是不是十分激动人心呢?Seremban的一家Honda分销商,就决定建立一个这样的Type R博物馆。 这家分销商名为Ban Lee Heng Motor,他们目前正在展出不少几乎全新的Honda经典车型,包括DC5 Integra Type R、AP1 S2000和三代Civic Type R,其中也包括第一代EK9车型。 这五辆展车几乎都是崭新出厂的,而且都几乎没有改装,它们都属于一位私人收藏家。那么,为什么不展出普通的Honda车型,而是选择了这些经典呢? 这是因为,这家分销商已经在SST豁免期限内卖光了所有的车辆库存。由于Honda在Melaka的工厂在MCO 2.0管制令实施期间需要停工,他们暂时还没有新车可卖。所以,为了不让展销厅空着,这家分销商就决定展出这些经典车型。 我个人特别喜欢这辆十分整洁、几乎全新的S2000。S2000是为公路驾驶设计的赛道车,搭载了一具2.0升的F20C自然进气引擎(250 PS/220 Nm),匹配6速
