Hot Wheels Premium Car Culture – Ronin Run II | 2007 Honda Civic Type R FD2 Real Riders

The Type R that Honda built purely for Japan — the 2007 Honda Civic Type R FD2 arrives in the Hot Wheels Premium Car Culture Ronin Run II series and delivers one of the most exclusive and coveted castings in the entire lineup. Never officially sold outside of Japan. Never watered down for export markets. Built specifically for Japanese roads, Japanese drivers, and Japanese enthusiasm — the FD2 Type R is the purest expression of Honda's performance philosophy in the modern era and a genuine collector grail for anyone serious about the Honda nameplate.

While the western world received the FN2 Type R — a hatchback that divided opinion and courted controversy — Japan quietly received something far more focused. The FD2 took the Civic sedan platform and transformed it through Honda's legendary Mugen and Type R development process into a front-wheel drive weapon that rewrote the rules for what a naturally aspirated sedan could achieve at the limit. Nurburgring lap records. Championship-winning touring car campaigns. A driver's car so pure and so focused that it immediately entered the conversation as one of the greatest front-wheel drive performance cars ever produced.

In Ronin Run II form — a series honouring the disciplined warrior spirit of Japanese automotive culture — the FD2 Type R is the consummate Ronin. Understated on the outside. Devastating at the limit.

Features:

• Real Riders rubber tyres on premium detailed wheels
• Die-cast metal body with premium paint finish
• Authentic FD2 Type R proportions — that purposeful, understated Japanese market sedan stance and signature Type R detailing faithfully captured in 1/64
• Japan-exclusive model detailing — the FD2's unique front end, wing, and Brembo brake detailing rendered with genuine appreciation
• Ronin Run II series packaging — Car Culture at its most atmospherically considered

For Honda collectors, Type R faithful, JDM purists who know exactly why the FD2 never left Japan, and Hot Wheels Premium hunters who appreciate the rarest and most significant castings — the FD2 Type R is the quiet achiever of the Ronin Run II lineup that rewards those who look closer.

Condition: Brand new, mint on card (MOC). Stored in a smoke-free environment.

Japan only. Naturally aspirated. Front-wheel drive perfection. The FD2 Type R belongs in Ronin Run II.
