Honda launches a special Civic Type R in Japan

The Honda Civic Type R Racing Black Package debuted at the Tokyo Auto Salon and is already available for ordering.

The car has no tech improvements over the standard Type R, unless you count the rear wing. Other than that, it wears blackout trim all around and boasts a matching interior. Suede covers most surfaces in the cabin, from the seats and the dashboard to the door panels and the steering wheel.

Prices start around the six-million JPY mark – a million above the standard model.
