1997 Honda Civic Type R EK9 1997

About this car

This 1997 Honda Civic Type R EK9 is a white example fitted with a 1,600 cc engine and a 5 speed manual gearbox, showing 141,000 km (approximately 87,613 miles) and offered from USS Nagoya & Hokuriku with an auction grade of 4.

The EK9 is the original Civic Type R, built around Honda's high revving B16B engine and a chassis tuned at the same time as the Integra Type R, and it remains one of the most sought after front wheel drive hot hatches to come out of Japan in the 1990s. Grade 4 points to a solid, usable car for its age with the usual light wear you would expect from this mileage, while the interior is graded C, suggesting more noticeable wear inside than outside. The full detail behind these grades, including any marks or repairs noted by the auction house, is set out in the translated auction sheet on this page.
