Overview

The FL5-generation Honda Civic Type R represents a refined shift in the Type R formula. Still aggressively capable, but now more composed, more usable and arguably more complete than any of its predecessors. It retains the high-revving character and front-wheel-drive precision the badge is known for, but introduces a more mature chassis balance and improved interior quality.

Finished in black, this example presents with a subtle, purposeful aesthetic that suits the FL5’s more grown-up design language. With just over 12,000 km recorded and achieving the top-tier auction grade of 6, this is effectively a near-new car, offering buyers the opportunity to secure one of the most in-demand modern performance cars without the usual waitlists.

The condition and specification reflect a car that has been carefully owned and minimally used, positioning it firmly at the very top end of available examples.
