My heart wants a Type R My brain wants a Type S My bank account wants me to stop buying cars
-
Just got a type S for 50k out the door. This car has activated my teenage happiness and I'm so lucky to own one. So much power, so much class. Thank you Honda/Acura ☺️
-
I'm not even all the way through this video, and the fact that you are saying that tires matter more than AWD make me SO HAPPY! I try to tell people this all the time, and they think I'm nuts. I always ask them one question... "What is the only thing on your vehicle that makes contact with the ground?" This is why I've been watching you guys for years.
-
Nailed it! If dealer mark-up is going to push these up by 5-10K, let's test them against other cars in that price bracket.
-
Type S is so tempting. Saw one at a dealership, today, and it looked great!
-
I may be in the minority, but I hate power seats...too slow. Manual seats are instant.
-
I am loving my FL5. Such a great driver's car!
-
Civic Type R is my choice, and I ordered one already. I have another car for daily driving, so this is my decision.
-
Well done, gents. This has classic Everyday Driver content vibes.
-
Just bought the Type S the other day drove the s3 first but loved the Acura so much more!
-
Very happy to see the in person discussion at the end … I have missed that in recent videos and it is my favorite part! Thanks guys
-
The CTR and ITR are like a 911 GT3 vs a 911 S/T: track trim vs sport tourer trim. Same car, slightly different niches.
-
I’m 61 and have a significant commute to work each day yet I’m the proud owner of a CTR and I wouldn’t have it any other way. The car is brilliant and a blast to drive each day.
-
FL5 is so easy to daily! I drive mine everyday.
-
Great comparison! I recently went from a 2019 Type R to the new Integra Type S. Lovely car.
-
Have made a similar statement a while ago but, this needs repeating. You guys do this whole car review thing, pretty flipping well! Thanks.
-
This is such a fun comparison! Especially seeing the Hondas take on the Audi :)!
-
GREAT VIDEO!! Thanks so much for this comparison guys
-
Really good comparison as always guys! I think the S3 is the better car if your commuting in traffic to the office every day. Failing that, I'd take the Acura or the Civic Type R

Type r 1st, Acura 2nd, S3 3rd
