Buying Advice

As a single trim offering, the Civic Type R has no options in terms of trims but does have a few packages on offer. The Type R comes with 19-inch alloy wheels, Limited-slip differential , LED exterior lighting, Rear spoiler, Adaptive suspension dampers, Brembo brakes, Dual-zone automatic climate control, Sport seats, Microsuede seat upholstery, Digital instrument panel, 12-speaker Bose premium audio, and much more. We would also like to recommend adding lightweight forged alloy wheels and a carbon-fiber wing spoiler to cut weight and maximize performance. We especially liked the Sonic Gray Pearl and the Championship White exterior paint options.
