What moves the price on this model
Condition, history, originality, ownership, delivery and modification multipliers apply to every car in the library. They are applied automatically when an advertisement is analysed, and the schedule is set out once, on the analyser page.
Projected value in five years
The case for and against
Type R badges have the best value-retention record of any hot hatch line. Championship White manuals lead the market.
Still drifting down slowly and the FL5 successor exists. This generation waits behind it in the queue.
Known faults and risks
Similar cars, and what they cost to run
A 2017 Australian-market car, an ex-dealer demonstrator, made $30,250 at Point Cook, Victoria, on 15 September on its second attempt: 131,536 kilometres, Championship White with the bumpers blacked, and a build stated at 339 kilowatts on PRL turbo parts, a Hondata fuel system, Blitz coilovers, carbon panels and an Invidia exhaust, with the factory parts included. This record's curve and colour put a standard car at that distance at $48,900, and the aftermarket table charges 7 per cent for what it can read. The room took 38. A large power increase on a high-distance engine is a case the table does not price, and it is the one case in the September review where the room charged more than this desk would have (D95). The value does not move: it describes a standard car.

Four Australian LE results in date order: $148,500 at 40km in July 2021, $110,000 at 494km in June 2022, $105,000 at 2,771km in February 2022, $93,888 at 98km in April 2024. Distance is irrelevant across them - every car is effectively delivery-mileage - so the decline is entirely time.
A 3,653-kilometre LE failed to sell in February 2026, and a 131,536-kilometre standard FK8 failed in August 2026 and sold for $30,250 when it came back in September.
And is held below as context only; the standard car has one result, $69,000 at 16,228km in April 2022. The value here is unchanged because a single four-year-old standard result cannot move it, and it should be treated as weakly supported until a current standard FK8 sells. SOURCING: aggregator-surfaced results, unconfirmed against the auction house, the weakest evidence grade here.
Twenty cars came to Australia, one was kept by Honda and nineteen went to a buyer lottery. Four of them have since crossed Collecting Cars, and all four were at or near delivery mileage. Number 20, at 40 kilometres, made $148,500 on 15 July 2021. Number 9, at 2,771 kilometres, made $105,000 on 2 February 2022. Number 7, at 494 kilometres, made $110,000 on 9 June 2022. Number 10, at 98 kilometres, made $93,888 on 4 April 2024.
Fitting at minus 0.771 and about $15,500 a year. Same variant, same market, same colour family, same negligible distance, four cars out of a known population of nineteen in public hands. Twenty-one per cent of every Australian car of this model has been measured. There is nothing to argue about here: the delivery-mileage collector car went down by more than a third while it sat.
It carries BBS forged wheels, two-piece front discs, retuned dampers and 47 kilograms less weight, and it trades at roughly double a standard FK8. Every Limited Edition row on this page is excluded from the fitted value for the ordinary car.
A 16,228-kilometre Racing Blue car made $69,000 in April 2022. A heavily built 2019 car - MHI Stage 2 turbocharger, Hondata tune, 327kW at the wheels, a Mugen kit repainted in a custom finish - made $51,500 in February 2026 at 42,376 kilometres. Two cars, four years apart, one standard and one very much not, so no slope is claimed from them. What the pair does show is that a comprehensively modified FK8 with documented tuning did not command a premium over a standard car sold when the market was higher.

The evidence on this model is thin and the report says so on its cover. Read a complete one on a real car first. Seventeen sections, no account, nothing to pay.
One line of email when this desk publishes a call on a Honda Civic Type R, or records a new Australian sale of one. Nothing else, no schedule, and on a quiet model you may hear nothing for months, which is itself worth knowing about a car you are chasing.
