A jeweler in Japan is promoting marriage ceremony bands with Honda’s seal of approval. Whereas there in all probability isn’t an precise Honda or Acura half quantity for the platinum bridal bands from U-Treasure, the ring units are nonetheless formally sanctioned by Massive Crimson within the type of iconic logos, that are engraved on the within of the rings.

For Honda stans like myself, that is love at first sight. I imply, what higher technique to say, “I do” and proclaim your timeless love for one more automotive fanatic than with a marriage band that claims “VTEC” on it? The bands are a bit on the expensive aspect, beginning at ¥132,000, or simply over $950.00 at present alternate charges. I’m uncertain if that’s overpriced for a pair of platinum marriage ceremony bands, however I believe it’s value it given the alternatives of Honda logos accessible.

There are 12 of them in all, as Automotive Watch reviews, starting from the “H” brand to the daring lettering of the total “HONDA” badge. There’s additionally a borderless “H” that appears like a truncated, the other way up “A,” which bolsters my argument that the Acura brand is admittedly simply the Honda brand flipped on its head. There’s additionally some Kanji characters that I completely can’t learn. And there’s an “HM” brand, which refers back to the stamped initials of a few of Honda’s most esteemed engines.

However a few of my favourite marriage ceremony ring designs from this launch bear the mannequin names of the Prelude and Beat, in addition to these of the Civic Kind R and Integra Kind R — not Kind S. The SiR is there, too, for good measure, as a result of everyone knows that the EP3 Civic SiR hatchback (based mostly on the seventh-generation Civic) is the unsung hero of the historic efficiency Civic lineup.

Fortunately, the marriage bands eschew the gaudy seems to be of the tenth-generation Honda Civic Kind R. In truth, the Honda rings are downright stylish and look fairly understated from afar. Except you made a degree of exhibiting somebody, onlookers would don’t have any clue that beneath that marriage ceremony ring, you’re rocking the beloved “Twin Overhead Camshaft, Valve Timing Electronically Managed” badge. Stylish.

Certainly, love is a Honda. Wait, no. That’s Subaru, although it must be Honda. And now it may be with these marriage ceremony bands. The rings can be found beginning July 10 at U-Treasure’s retailer in Tokyo, Japan, but it surely seems to be like patrons within the U.S. can use a forwarding service to get a set of rings.
