Simply 600 examples of the Honda Civic Sort R Restricted Version are heading to U.S. shores and sadly, one in every of them has already been destroyed in a fireplace.
This explicit Civic Sort R has been listed up on the market by IAAI and whereas no particulars concerning the incident that led to its destruction have been offered, these photos present that it’s now nothing greater than a molten mess of melted plastic and metal.

Each single physique panel of the automotive has been ruined by the inferno that engulfed it and all the home windows have been blown out. It’s a very sorry sight and the one tell-tail indicators that this can be a Civic Sort R Restricted Version versus a daily Civic hatchback are the glimpses of yellow paint that may be seen, in addition to the intercooler, the black wheels, and the pink Brembo brake calipers.
The itemizing doesn’t state the complete VIN of the automotive, that means it’s unclear which of the 600 U.S.-bound examples it’s. Right here’s hoping it’s not #001 that was just lately offered at public sale for an eye-watering $102,000.
Clearly, the automotive won’t ever return to the roads and with the attainable exception of the 2 entrance brake calipers, completely no elements of it are salvageable. Which begs the query: who of their proper thoughts would buy it, and why?
