Honda has announced that the Civic Type R will finally debut at the Geneva Motor Show.

The production model is likely to look quite similar to the Type R concepts, but it will be toned down a bit. One major feature that could be lost is the third brake light built into the spoiler.

Sales of the Civic Type R will commence in the second half of the year. Hopefully we get some teaser images as we approach the big reveal.

i was really looking forward to seeing the production model with that big 3rd brake light, it's was more than likely of the of most favored exterior features.
What ever they do, I just hope they do it right.

Is it in that picture? It looks like there is still some there on the spoiler, but maybe it is toned down quite a bit.

No, the third light is clearly visible down on the deck...

It's just too bad that trying to integrate it like how it was done on the concept will be an involved process but possibly worth it in the end unless some aftermarket parts maker picks up on that and comes out with a whole new assembly.
