The 11th-generation Civic Type R is one of the all-time greats. But it begs to be on the racetrack, so is it any good for commuting or normal driving if you decide it’s your only car? Should it be driven madly all the time? And just because it’s FWD, does it qualify as a genuine sports car?

    Hi, from Japan!! Here in Japan, people think this is the greatest Civic Type R ever, too. Also people whose age are around 40s appreciate the exterior. They couldn’t buy the prior one because of its Gundam looking. Now, it’s solved. Anyway, nice car!!

    I love that Todd's hair is a G-meter in the corners! The Type R looks pretty composed considering how quickly Paul is driving ;-)
  • @muthukumaranc
    Great video! Not everyone can understand how special this car is. You just got a new subscriber.
  • @CypressRacing
    Owned one for 5 months, enjoying every minute of it.

    I love my FK8 Type-R, it's about as charactered as you can find in a modern car.
  • @Ransack777
    I love my FL5 R. Best Honda I have ever owned. This is my 2nd R and this is an amazing car period. I am 46 and love the new design.

    How do you guys not have way more subscribers??? Great review as always.
  • @brianr14190
    Have enjoyed your guys reviews for several years. Thanks. Just bought a new Sonic Gray Type-R this week. This is a “special” car.
  • @KuyaArbee
    love your reviews! love the insights and the exterior B roll shots and interior shots!

    Thank you guys, great review and insight as always. I think you guys just saved me about $16K CDN when you made the track statement @14:53. Sadly, I live on Vancouver Island and I heard a rumour that our last track in Duncan, which is 90 minutes from where I live, is closing. The SI is the pick for me as I will never be a track guy and will only be taking the family on some safe, spirited family adventures. Thanks again!

    I just bought one last week. It’s amazing. Great review !
  • @dowbowski
    Very nice review! Really enjoying my FL5 boost blue. And I do intend to make it to the track eventually! 😎
  • The lead engineer mentioned in Savagegeese's first video on the FL5 that this will indeed be the last Type R before it gets electrified, so I'm thoroughly looking forward to getting my hands on one... eventually.
  • @TheFK8Life
    It's tough to describe how good the car is from the factory but it's much easier to show them on an open road. My 2021 Type R has 640hp on the factory engine/trans/clutch People who complain about the price don't understand the engineering in a Type R
  • @PhyFK8
    TOTALLY agree that the wing should be paint matched. That and the mirrors. Aside from that, I absolutely love the styling of the FL5. The rear especially
  • Happy Friday ! I really like the Type R . Sometimes I feel there are too many car choices and not enough time to experience them all.
  • @Shono731
    Awesome video!! I really enjoy the content!! I have watched the channel for a while and i love it! I bought a black FL5 two months ago and I have really been enjoying it! I was fortunate to get mine at msrp!! Dealer markups can be crazy! Keep up the amazing job and I look forward to seeing the next video! 🚙🙏🏼
