2016 Honda Civic Type R Spied
The Honda Civic Type R is getting ready to make a grand entrance at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
It appears that someone was able to catch photos of the Civic Type R as it underwent preparations at a detailing shop for its debut in Switzerland early next week. By now, there have been numerous teasers, spy photos and concepts of the Civic Type R so it’s no surprise that the production model closely resembles everything that has been shown so far.
