For Honda, racing has always been the pinnacle of automotive art. Hence the Civic Type R: an eye-catching car for the road that just happens to hold the record lap time for a front-wheel drive car on the world-famous Nürburgring. In actuality, there’s no hiding the Type R’s racing pedigree – not with its uncompromising performance features, including a direct-injected 2.0 litre VTEC® turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with 306-horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, and matching powerful looks.
