'Murica Rejoice: Honda Civic Type R Mule Spotted In California
As the Civic Type R's glorious North American debut draws nearer, a test mule has been spotted in California
Don’t worry, that news about the next Honda Civic Type R at last being sold on ‘Murican shores wasn’t just an exceptionally good dream. Want a little proof? Here’s a test mule appropriately splashed in Championship White, spotted near Honda’s facility in Southern California.
We had a poke around the interior of the prototype at the LA Auto Show last week, where we found an electronic handbrake (expected to be on North American models but not European versions), and a drive switch with three selectable modes.
The production car - which won’t change a great deal from the prototype - will be revealed next year.

Finally some VTEC boys and girls
Undisguised test mule? Or is it a private import? Jay Leno garage?
VTAAAAK
Looks terrible
I hope there is an optional highperformance fartcan exhaust
Electronic handbrake? Are you kidding me?! Why are American versions of cars loosing the beloved slide assist and burnout helper?!
honda gets so much stick nowadays. yes there are ricers, and downright idiots, but with the right mods we will beat your pony car any day of the week.
