Used Car of the Day: 2018 Honda Civic Type R

Today's used car of the day is a 2018 Honda Civic Type R that's priced higher than a new one.


This California-based car has new brakes, tires, and wipers to go along with window and lighting tints. Oh, and it has Championship White rims.

It's apparently well maintained but there is some minor cosmetic damage, such as curb rash, from daily wear and tear.

Apparently, this all adds up to a $47,000 price. The mileage is unlisted as far as I can tell.

Go check it out here.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

    In case there is a spinal surgery #2 sometime this summer, I've been putting feelers out there for a new CTR. I've found a nearby dealer that will sell at MSRP, but they got kind of "mmmm" when I asked about the extras they are bound to tack on like the Pulse light, fake carbon fiber trim, etc. But in my hunt, used CTR prices come up. And most of them still start with prices that begin with the number 4. This is reminding me of FJs and Wranglers - almost depreciation proof. Some of you might not like the way it looks, and I'll be one to admit the previous gen was an acquired taste, but with resales going as high as they currently are, if you find an MSRP dealer, you might pay less for a brand new one than a 2020 with few miles on it.

    Honda needs to stop the Civic craze or I will go mentally insane.


  • 28-Cars-Later Suggestion for future QOTD: Given the fact US road infrastructure is crumbling around us why must all new cars have 20+ inch wheels with tires an inch or two thick in sidewall which literally become bent over time bc of potholes? I know initially in the 90s wheels got bigger to accommodate larger disc brakes but its gone a little too far given the road infrastructure don't ya think?

  • SCE to AUX I can't warm up to the new look. Still prefer my 22 SF.
  • SCE to AUX I guess the direct sales stores weren't polled. Unless dealers are going out of business, I don't feel one bit sorry for them. They should most fear the mfrs who are eager to get rid of them, reducing costs and increasing customer satisfaction.
