Now here’s a true JDM legend for sale in Pennsylvania right now. Of course, we know the Honda Civic Type R, but it wasn’t until the FK8 or fifth iteration of Honda’s halo Civic that we officially got it in the United States. By that time, it came packing turbocharged power, but gone were the old, naturally aspirated, high-revving engines. Thankfully, JDM Civic Type Rs have made it here, such as this 82,000-mile 1997 Honda Civic Type R from the EK generation. This was the first generation of Type R, and debuted for the 1997 model year, in Japan. This car comes with a host of Hardrace enhancement parts too, making it a real street warrior. And of course, there’s that screaming 1.6-liter VTEC engine that can show you over 8,000rpm on the tachometer if you dare.
This 1997 Honda Civic Type R wears a clean white suit and comes in two-door hatchback form. It’s a compact-sized thing, yet manages to pack in four adults with ease. This car features genuine Honda sun visors with plastic rivets, door sashes, an MLK Mak lifter kit, TRS LED headlamp bulbs and Toyo Extensa HPII tires on its white wheels. The interior of this 1997 Honda Civic Type R comes with custom Recaro seat covers, a Spoon Sports steering wheel, a J’s Racing short shifter, a radio block-off plate, and genuine Honda Type-R gear shift boot and shift nut. You’ve also got genuine Honda pedal pads and even dash light bulbs for that extra bit of authenticity to please purists. The gauge cluster stares back at you with the tachometer redlined at 8,500rpm, while the right-hand side driving position and speedo in metric units reminds you that this is a JDM machine.
Now for the really juicy stuff. Up front is the fearsome B16 1.6-liter naturally aspirated 4-cylinder engine that is reportedly factory rated for 182hp at 8,200rpm. It’s paired with a 5-speed manual transmission and drives the front wheels. But wait, there’s much more. This car benefits from Spoon Sports 4-2-1 headers, exhaust B-pipe and street specification muffler. Then, there’s a long list of components from Hardrace, including front control arms, sway bar end links, roll center adjusters and camber kit. The rear suspension also benefits from a Hardrace toe kit, camber kit, trailing arm bushing, lower control arms, and more. There’s Tein Flex-Z coilovers, and so much more that you really need to see this car to check it all out.

The Honda Civic, a name synonymous with compact, sporty efficiency, has carved out a legendary status in the automotive world. While today's Civics are celebrated for their sportiness and tuning potential, the Civic's origins lie in the 1970s, when it was introduced as an antidote to the gas-guzzling American V8s. It represented a new era of economical, mass-market motoring. This 1979 Honda Civic CVCC Hatchback, a well-preserved all-original example with under 39,000 miles, is a testament to this paradigm shift. Its historical significance makes it a prized possession for collectors who value the transformative impact of the Civic in the automotive landscape.
The Honda Civic Type R is a legendary nameplate in JDM circles, as well as anywhere in the world where there's a significant showing of Japanese cars. It's the most hardcore variant of Honda's Civic that one can buy straight from the manufacturer. Over the years, the Civic has evolved into one of the finest front-wheel-drive cars on the market. It set Nürburgring records and won many fans. It's a poster car for many children who grew up in the Nineties and are now able to afford it. That's why this 2023 Honda Civic Type R may not stay in our inventory for very long, especially since it's got just 800 miles on it. If it seems to be calling out your name, don't delay.

When creating the Honda S2000, the Japanese automaker looked back on its origins and channeled its original S600 and S800 sports cars. The concept of a front-engine rear-wheel drive sports car was one that the company had done in the past, but the endearing success of their resultant creation was one that no one was quite prepared for. The 2001 Honda S2000 we have today is the perfect example of everything enthusiasts love. With a reported 41,500 miles on the clock, this Japanese classic isn't just a legend in every right but also a savvy investment in the years to come thanks to it being a clean example - a true rarity in the world of Honda S2000s.
If you’re interested in acquiring a two-door grand tourer from the Nineties, have you considered the Lexus SC range? Also known as the Toyota Soarer in Japan, Lexus is Toyota’s luxury brand that was initially created with the United States market in mind. Their headline product was the smooth LS400 luxury sedan that went head-to-head with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7-Series. Those who chose a Lexus over anything else were bowled over by how good the cars were. Of course, they came with that inimitable Toyota reliability and solid built quality too, so you won in multiple ways. That also explains why this first-generation 1992 Lexus SC300 from Greensboro, North Carolina looks in great shape. Of course, having done under 62,000 miles does help its case as being a great modern classic car for the discerning petrolhead. Is that you? If so, talk to us and let’s give this car a new home.
Subarus are renowned for their go-anywhere ability, superb handling, and reliability. Most of this is thanks to the Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system that can only be found in Subarus. Snow, mud, gravel, or tarmac - the Subaru gets you covered. The Subaru WRX model is based on the Impreza, which was created for the World Rally Championship. In 2015, it saw a complete redesign and entered the 2016 model year with some welcoming changes.

We were told that this example has 60,000 miles on its clock. Let's find out what it has to offer.
