The Honda Civic Type R has been sitting at the throne of the hot hatch segment for quite some time now, and the latest Limited Edition proves to be the most focused performer of the lineup widening the gap even further from its front-wheel drive competitors.
The Civic Type R Limited Edition is slightly lighter and more aggressive in its setup, while the 2.0-liter turbocharged engine has been left untouched, producing the same 306 HP (310 PS) and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque as the standard model.
Honda will produce a total of 1,020 examples of the FK8 Civic Type R Limited Edition worldwide, with the US market getting 600 of them and the UK just 20, with the latter being sold-out.

Honda HPD Civic Type R TC Race Car: Attacking the Track Scott Evans,Manufacturer
The official
MotorTrend position on the Honda Civic Type R is pretty clear: It s awesome. In fact, we think it s the best front-wheel-drive sports car on the market. As good as it is, no street car is actually a race car. That said, you can absolutely turn a street car into a race car with the proper application of money, parts, time, and labor. Or you can skip all the hard work and hand Honda Performance Development (HPD) a stack of cash to build one for you. HPD calls it the Honda HPD Civic Type R TC, and the HPD people let us lap one.
