Description
AMM International is proud to present this exceptionally well-preserved 2006 (55) Facelift Premier Edition Honda Civic Type R (EP3) finished in factory Cosmic Grey Metallic, a model widely regarded as one of Honda’s most iconic hot hatches. This example is a rare survivor, completely unmodified, and retains its original factory specification throughout.
Supplied new in the UK, this EP3 has had only two owners, with the same enthusiast keeper looking after the car for 16 years. With 13,991 miles on the odometer and a full, comprehensive service history, it has been maintained to the highest standard and presents in excellent, original condition. The interior is entirely smoke-free and pet-free, with all original trim, bucket seats, carpets, and steering wheel in superb order.
The 2004 Facelift model brought refined suspension, improved ride quality, and subtle mechanical updates, all of which are retained in this example. Mechanically, the 6-speed manual gearbox shifts precisely, and the legendary 2.0-litre VTEC engine performs flawlessly, delivering the crisp throttle response and high-revving character the EP3 is renowned for. The chassis and suspension remain tight and composed, showing no corrosion or evidence of misuse, and the car retains its factory ride height.
Cosmetic condition is exceptional for a car of this age. The Cosmic Grey Metallic paint retains its depth and clarity, with only minor age-appropriate marks. Panels, glass, and trim are all original and intact. The unmodified cabin shows minimal wear, consistent with careful ownership, and all electronics and systems operate correctly.
This Civic Type R (EP3) represents a rare opportunity to acquire a true collector-grade example, increasingly difficult to find in such untouched, original condition. Its documented history, long-term single-enthusiast ownership, and accident-free provenance make it a perfect choice for collectors, purists, or enthusiasts seeking a reference-quality EP3.
A thoroughly original and honest example, this 2006 Facelift EP3 is ready to be enjoyed or preserved as part of a growing classic Honda collection.
