1999 Honda Civic EK9 Type RX JDM Hot Hatch Royalty
Final Edition | Lightweight Factory Racer | B16 VTEC Glory

For the true Honda enthusiast or JDM collector, this 1999 Honda Civic Type RX (EK9) represents one of the most iconic and desirable hot hatches of its time. As the final and most refined version of the EK9 Type R lineup, the Type RX is lightweight, razor-sharp, and built with motorsport DNA straight from Honda's racing division.

When compared to 90s legends like the Levin BZ-R, Pulsar VZ-R, or WRX Type RA, the EK9 Type RX delivers a pure, naturally aspirated experience that focuses on handling precision, high-revving VTEC thrills, and unmatched driving feel.

B16 Engine Excellence: With a factory hand-built 1.6L DOHC VTEC pushing 185hp, the EK9 Type RX has one of the highest specific outputs of any naturally aspirated engine in its era.

Track-Ready from Factory: Equipped with a close-ratio 5-speed manual, helical LSD, lightweight body panels, and stiffer chassis bracing this car is built to carve corners.

Final Edition Rarity: The Type RX came with factory upgrades like power folding mirrors, red Recaro seats, alloy pedals, and a factory CD player making it one of the most complete and collectible EK9 variants.
