F*ck COVID-19. It seems Europeans still have an insatiable appetite when it comes to hot hatches. With news that only 100 Civic Type R Limited Edition units have been allocated for the European market, it only took a month to sell out.
Representing the purest expression of the Civic Type R, the Limited Edition model has less weight, improved dynamics, and an even stronger driver focus.
Developed with improved track performance as its core focus, the Civic Type R Limited Edition features 20-inch lightweight BBS forged alloy wheels, unique “Sunlight Yellow” paint, and a 47-kilogram weight reduction.
Inside, the Civic Type R Limited Edition features revised tactility and improved touch points, with a new Alcantara wrapped steering wheel and a counter-weighted teardrop gear knob. And unlike some of its track focused rivals, the Civic Type R Limited Edition retains its back seats—a plus for those who plan to still use this as a daily driver.
Unfortunately, Honda Cars Philippines has no plans of increasing its allocation of the Civic Type R, and with it any chances of seeing this Limited Edition or even the subdued Sport Line.
