This Civic Type R is a much nicer car than the GR Corolla.
-
The only people that don’t think this car is amazing, are people that haven’t driven it
-
I agree with you guys on the looks compared to the previous gen. I considered the R when I was looking to replay my Si several years ago, but couldn't get past the looks. This is a much better design.
-
That thing does sound really nice when they were driving it around. The styling is sexy. This imo looks better than the previous type r
-
Big fan of the channel here. I'm also in Boulder, I have an FL5 if you boys need it for any testing!
-
I am a hot-hatch guy and have owned a lot of different ones (GTI mk5 & mk6, Honda SiR EP3 my fav btw, fiesta st, etc) and I’m lucky enough that my two coworkers got a new type r and a Corolla gr. Driven both and the Type R is just superior in every way (interior, handling, materials, space, etc). Just feels like a much better product.
-
I'm more like the guys at TFL. Just turned 50 years young. The type R is great, but I'd pay a bit more for the type S... definitely punching above its weight class!!!
-
Just picked up the Integra Type S a few days ago...so far loving it. Called several dealers, could not find one without markups :(
-
I bought a Cadillac CT4-V Blackwing instead. My local Honda dealers are asking $20k over sticker and interest rates at like +8%. I got my 470HP, 6-speed manual, rwd for $60k - $3k incentive, 3% apr & a free ($3500 value) performance driving school in Vegas.

Okiboji native! Love the hat!!
-
A Civic Type R and Corolla GR comparison would be a good video and a good time.
-
The rear spoiler is so juvenile-looking. Makes the vehicle look like something in a high-school parking lot. 🤣
-
That's my exact car. Love it.
-
How are you guys actually fitting in those seats? Are you on top of or in between the bolsters lol.
-
I do miss the 2 door coupe.
-
Kase should have done this video. This type R is a great car but as you get older the Acura type S is so much more comfortable. It drives so so good.
-
I dispute that this is faster than the Golf R DSG. It sure wouldn't have been in the conditions you guys were driving it. I just took a look on a popular auto sales website, and I see these Civic Type Rs have definitely come down to Earth in terms of price. Seeing them starting at ~$45k, which is where they probably should be. I'd be willing to spend $2-3k more on the aforementioned Golf R. I'd also be willing to spend $5-10k more on a 2024 G70 3.3T AWD. Even their "new" four-banger may be competitive with this, the 2.5T is a substantial improvement.
-
Great car guys! The GR is fugly! Cheers Kirk
-
Hopefully Honda doesn't kill the looks on the Civic like they have done on the Accord and CRV.
-
I got a 22 wrx got rid of a civic for it 👍🏼
