Don't you just love white Type R's, even if it's a 4door version ? Before you run to your local dealer though learn that, for now, the pictured Civic Type R Sedan is a prototype which will be used as the official car for the 2006 F1 Japan Gran Prix -to be held at the Suzuka Circuit on October 6-8. But luckily for us, not for long as Honda revealed that a production model will go on sale in Japan in spring 2007. That means that the 4door Civic Type R will probably find its way into Europe latter in the same year.
