Thanks to a camera-wielding reader over at Worldcarfans, we've been given our first unencumbered look at Honda's all-new Civic Type R just days before the car debuts at the 2015 Geneva auto show. Pictured here receiving what appears to be a pre-auto-show primping at a detail shop, the Type R looks more or less how we expected: Absolutely insane.

Honda put out a few key Type R details recently, confirming that the hottest Civic in Europe—no, it won't come here in this form—will have a 168-mph top speed, gigantic front brakes, and sweet-looking 19-inch wheels. Power comes from a hyper-modded version of Honda's new turbocharged, VTEC-equipped four-cylinder engine, and output is routed through a six-speed manual transmission to the front wheels. Head over to Worldcarfans for more photos, or exercise some patience and see the car in all of its glory when we cover the car live from Geneva next week.
