While you may not spot him directly, keep an eye out for the eye-catching wing and hood scoop of John Cena’s new 2024 Honda Civic Type R as you drive through his neighborhood in Florida. Cena, known for his previous daily driver, an FK8 CTR, has now traded it in for a sleek white FL5.
It’s hard to pinpoint exactly why Cena stands out as a captivating celebrity, but he seems to have moved beyond his wrestling roots to earn widespread admiration. He possesses a unique ability to appeal to the masses, perhaps drawing inspiration from fellow wrestler-turned-star Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
I find it amusing that such a wealthy and physically impressive individual chooses to drive a six-speed Civic. Long live the manuals!
Cena is now officially associated with Honda, lending his voice to some of their advertisements, so it’s no surprise that he champions the brand on the roads. It’s still impressive that he opts for Civic Type Rs for his daily drives—owning such a car implies a genuine appreciation for the driving experience, regardless of one’s financial status.
Currently, it appears that the Honda dealership in Wesley Chapel, Florida, has his Boost Blue vehicle in stock, and they’re likely to leverage his celebrity status to fetch a high price. Alternatively, it could be featured in a charity auction.
From the glimpse of the front in his tweet, or rather “X” post, it seems he hasn’t modified the car. I wonder whether he will keep his new model stock or decide to give it a tune-up.
