Civic Type R for Sale

Experience Honda’s Racing Heritage

The “R” in Honda Civic Type R stands for “Racing,” and this model is a tribute to the brand’s long history on the circuit. While Honda is often regarded as a practical brand for commuters and families, it has competed at the highest levels of motorsports, and that engineering makes its way into special cars like the Civic Type R. Soichiro Honda himself was a race car driver, and the Honda brand entered its first motorcycle race in 1949, the same year the company was founded. When Honda started building cars as well as motorcycles, it went from debuting its very first four-wheeled vehicle in 1963 to entering Formula One the very next year––and then claiming its first Grand Prix victory in 1965!

Honda remains active in Formula One as one of the limited number of powertrain suppliers, and it also provides powertrains for IndyCar and Japan's Super Formula. Factory Honda teams compete in the IMSA SportsCar Championship in America and Super GT in Japan. In fact, Honda uses a modified version of the Civic Type R as its car in the top class of Super GT. This extensive experience at all levels of motorsports has helped Honda take its street cars to a higher level, allowing drivers like you to benefit from the lessons the brand has learned competing and winning on the track.

About the Honda Civic Type R

The Honda Civic Type R has been wowing crowds since its release in 1997; however, it didn’t make its way to the United States until 2017.
