2023 Honda Civic Type R - The Antidote to Boring

I’m having a flashback here because one of the first cars I ever tested when I started this gig 25 years ago was an Integra Type-R in Championship White. And now, here I am with the new Civic Type R in the very same color; looking sharp and ready to impress.
MSRP as-tested: $46,345

Thank you for sticking to such a concise format. Not every review needs to be 20 minutes but it seems they all are now!

[@stevehammes]

I appreciate you noticing that.

[@a_single_white_female]

A 6-year-old 2017 used one with 30k+ miles is still MSRP what it was in 2017. Soul crushing.

[@movem1]

I truly enjoy all your reviews Steve. Excellent commentary, video edit, and clear insights. Happy holidays!

[@stevehammes]

Much appreciated!

[@jayczyzyk9707]

Can u do a review on a yugo

[@stevehammes]

How about a Daewoo?

[@TheCarCrazyGuy]

Crooked dealers ruin the whole experience..

[@stevehammes]

That’s the downside.

[@didiermejia780]

The lowest I find it in Los Angeles is 4k above MSRP. I would have gotten it but did not like the blue color

[@gudalawrence3746]

The car is so sharp Steve is rocking a ripped Denim. 😀✌🏾

[@stevehammes]

Ha! And I didn’t buy them that way.

[@gudalawrence3746]

@@stevehammes , 🤣🤣, classic. Much love all the way from Nigeria 🇳🇬. ✌🏾

[@Andrew8126]

Thanks for letting me live vicariously, Steve. Great review! Good to see Honda and Acura finding the beat (no pun intended) again!

[@stevehammes]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@FacundoLandoni]

Great review Steve!! Really nice car!

[@stevehammes]

It really is!

[@bob808]

It's a neat looking car, I really like that red interior!

[@stevehammes]

Me, too!

[@danny-npo]

46k+ in the info when you go. They add 10k when you visit them. How? Here is the deal: They add a warranty to the tires. Tint the windows and put in the trunk carpet set and say that is worth 5k plus. Plus 5k plus for the paper work.
There you got it

[@stevehammes]

Yeah. That’s awful.

[@kobi2002]

You can get them now for 1k-3k markup. Some people are now getting sticker. It is an awesome car.

[@ateequechowdhry7130]

does it have lumbar support?

[@cjsnylons]

These went from 20" to 19" but why are so many going down to 18" wheels?

[@ThePrettyeyes341]

Trying so hard to be the Z but just cant quite measure up to the magic. 😊

[@alphabeta8403]

2:25 Boy racer.
Honda makes 0 RWD based sports car; what a shame!

[@kobi2002]

They don’t need too.

[@TassieLorenzo]

For the moment. The S660 was only discontinued a couple of years ago.

[@ThePegi27]

Great, simple, short and clear review🫡

[@stevehammes]

Glad it was helpful!
