They could still do it, it is not like they are copying the Civics design and it will have to look exactly like a civic. They can do their own 2 door version if they want to with or without a 2 door civic.

I think the rear looks like G35 from the past...with that teardrop look which looks great. If they can make the car into a 4 door coupe style and looking good, with some performance from the 2L turbo in the accords, i think it will sell great. I'm hoping Acura delivers the good here.

It doesn't matter that it doesn't look like a Civic, it shares the Civic platform--this is why it will be available in a 4- and 5-door variant just like the Civic. Conversely, the 11th gen Civic platform will not have a 2-door variant. If Honda decided that sales volume did not support a 2-door version of its best-selling car and 2nd best-selling vehicle overall, there is zero chance that they will then turn around and invest in a niche Acura version of that same model that will sell in even lower numbers.

This is the first thing that has made me doubt my belief that there would not be an Integra equivalent of the Civic Type R. To my knowledge, the only Acura vehicles that have ever had a stock shift **** featuring red engraving of the gear pattern were the 3rd gen Integra Type R, and the NSX-R. Even the 4th gen RSX Type-S went back to grey.
