What’s changed for 2024
Not much
It’s now $1,000 more expensive than last year
But that’s it
What’s a Civic Type R
This latest Generation is called FL5
It replaces the most overstyled thing ever
It’s FWD only
It’s manual only
And it’s hatchback only
Engine
Same 2.0T from last gen
But some tweaks to the turbo and exhaust
315 hp
+9 from last gen
You get 320 in the Integra Type S
310 lbft
+15 from last gen
Most powerful Honda ever in the US
Carbon Fiber covers
Transmission
6 speed only
But ti’s the best 6 speed I’ve ever driven
I thought it was all hype…no
Perfect pedal box
Perfect shift action
Love the classic knob
Auto-rev match is perfect
Honda chill
FWD only
The big argument with the GR Corolla
No torque steer
Helical LSD
Styling
Looks SOOO much better now
Still hatch only
But so much cleaner design
Red honda badge front & Type R
Honeycomb everywhere
Wheel arches & gill
Hood scoop
19 in wheels
Smaller than last gen
But wider than last gen
Black lugs
tires**
Dope wing
Still rear wiper, unlike LE
Faux tail bar
Red H on back
Triple exhaust & diffuser
Brakes
13.8 in red brembos up front
This is something I LOVED on track
Braking performance was awesome
Seats
Red & Embossed
Comfy AF
NOT heated…wut
Carpeting is red too
That’s too much
Dash
Full width honeycomb like RS5
Vent nipples
Type R plack w/ serial number
Drive modes
Comfort, sport, individual
+R
Adjusts cluster
Cluster
Fully digital, nice
Not super customizable
+R
And then revs on side
Shift lights at top
Actually kinda nice on track
LogR
Track stuff
Kinda like AMG pages
ALSO rates your lap
So you know where to improve
Infotainment
Kinda middle of the road
Not bad not amazing
Reverse camera is pretty meh
But wireless ACP…really all I need
Wireless charger
Rear seats
Forgot to make the back seats red too lol
Carpets still red
Reasonable size
Only 2 seats
Cupholders take center seat
No vents
No chargers
Be grateful you get cupholders
Trunk
AWESOME size
Way bigger than GR Corolla
World’s cleverest privacy cover
Interior thoughts
This is the nicest interior in the segment
Way nicer than WRX
Way nicer than GR corolla
Elantra N is probably closest
Price
+1000 from last year
Just under 45k to start
5 colors (black and red free) - Авто та транспорт
Getting ready to sign the line for one of these in about two hours here in Ponca City Oklahoma. The car has 1 mile on it.
Are you the one that just bought that white one? I was looking at that one! Haha I called and they said it was sold.
Please tell me you didn’t pay over msrp
@@sleepytimemeditation3618 of course I did. I don’t care it was 2000 over. I don’t care though it just doesn’t matter. I don’t look at it like that, but I should I know.
For the people concerned that it’s a front wheel drive car. I live in Colorado and I owned a 2001 Acura Integra, which is front wheel drive. I had no issues in the snow. As long as your car isn’t rear wheel drive you’ll be fine. I’m talking specifically about snow not launching or anything like that.
Glad to see, or rather hear the excitement during the track end...well done!
🏎️
You only really need heated seats with leather, non issue with these beautiful suede seats
Can confirm. Used these seats in well below freezing without any need for heated seats.
Don’t know why he even mention this, it’s a freaking Type R, who cares about heated seats… 🙄
Only thing I'd change about the car is the exhaust to get a better sound. Plenty of options out there for that I like Borla
Always been curious how well these red full suede seats hold up after 50k+ non babying daily driving miles. Especially with all that cloud chucking vaping I see a lot of these type r boys doing out here
"Perfect pedal box for heel and toe" cues up the In Intal D playlist on spotify.
"Ohhhhh! Good car!"
There ya' go. That's all that matters, that unprompted reaction. That's...everything. That's why you buy a Type R.
💯💯💯
All the dealerships near me want $10k marked up 🤦♂️. At $56k plus taxes then why not get a Supra
4 seats
I have a Honda Civic 2018 Made in USA . That is the Best car i have in My life (i am 76 years old in México) love the hondas ,for the rest of My life ... bye
Old guys can afford this car and likely won’t buy it . Young guys want this car but can’t afford it
It’s always that way
Spot on, tried to buy a new 2024 today and couldn’t make the numbers work at the dealer 😢
I’m 31 and just leased one in Boost blue! It’s expensive but definitely worth it brotha
Special thanks to our Patreons for their support of the channel! Type R or Golf R or Corolla GR?
Type R, not even a question.
That cars 75.000 here in Canada. Looking at purchasing one
I've been looking at a type R for a few weeks now, but I have a question. If I don't plan on taking this car to a track to race, it's a daily driver and road trips, is it worth the price tag?
In this position I’d personally get the sport hatchback or the SI edition. My fiancé has the sport hatchback and it’s been fun for road trips and commuting
Owned the elantra N, and the interiors aren't even comparable. The CTR is so much nicer. It's such a better car in every way... besides the exhaust
And no fog lights or heated seats or rear charging
@evilcookiekiller who cares about fog lights? Lol heated seats don't really matter much when the whole seat is alcantara and I could give a sh*t if someone in the back doesn't have a charging port lol
Elantra N DCT is a faster Car in any street application, You paid more for a slower Car except on the track where at least the EN is covered under warranty. Honda the past Hyundai the future ;)
@nowhere529 DCT? Lol I didn't buy a car for my girlfriend. I paid more for a better car. EN hasn't beaten it in a single comparison. Nice try though, troll. Enjoy that insanely rapid depreciation and telling people you drive a hyundai lolol oh and all that gross cheap plastic that the entire interior is made of 😆
@@vjdfl5 You sure you're interested in girls you sound happier handling a stick, speaking of which I will guarantee any Suburban / City driving My DCT will be changing gears instantly while you are playing with your stick leaving you in the distance. The interior of the EN is great with up to date Electronics and is holding up nicely. Like I say my friend Hyundai is the Future and Honda is skating by on its past. They had a good run, Now they are so overpriced that they are a rare sight, I have seen 1 latest Gen Type R on the road. Depreciation? the EN would have to depreciate 20 000 dollars to cover the buying price difference, So maybe in a few years that will be an issue. I like you, your a tryer😉.
I saw another video of you turn off the nav system in the car and use apple car play the system works better. The nav system uses RAM on the computer
Honestly prefer the fk8 more. It’s body is just says hey I’m not a basic civic andddd looks very anime lol
Awesome video and I hope at some point you can make a video on the Integra Type S, just would like to hear your thoughts and comparison. Also, selfishly I want to know if a 6'1 person can slouch a bit and not hit the roof sitting in the back seats in the Type S since we're the same height 😄. Think in some other video someone said the roof line is a little lower in the back of the Type S vs. the Type R.
You don't get rear vents or charging?! Or heated seat or fog lights? Those are pretty massive disappointments.
Yea it could be partially justified at the price of the FK8 but at the price of the FL5 it's just greedy.
I wish they would have given it more red accents on the doors and dash instead of the floor
Sold mine. Great car, really fun to drive, but I don’t miss it.
why?
@@CrystalNinja07 was at the limit of traction for fwd to begin with the, flat torque map feeling mid range, bad engine sound, not worth the garage space in my opinion. Great handling car, meh power, not any soul.
@@dogshmog if you already knew that why buy it in the first place?
@@Reptilianoverlord-jc8mtpotential appreciation for a cheap ish sports car
@@dogshmog same man, sold my 2022 one, add on top of that it was just boring . I know have a bmw m340i, and enjoy riding it a lot more!
Wow.. type 👏👏👏👏 🎉🎈🎈🎈🥳🎈🥳🥳
Hondata reported that 315 hp is actually to the wheels not the crank
Great platform, and still great bang for the buck. Just keep an eye on the "sticky steering" issue previous generations suffered.
And the big downer for me: It comes as a four door sedan only.
45k Dollars... in Germany its 54k € .... :( sadge
Sorry im all new to this, “vent nipples”? is that really what you call them? 😂
Manual transmissions getting rare now 😢
Emissions..
Everyone knows that Red is the fastest color.
Me: $45k isn’t bad. I’ll take one please.
Dealer: Ok, that will be $70k + tax & fees.
This is how I ended up in a Golf R ✌️
Id rather a Golf R. Honda are joking with their prices.
Civic Type R
Civic type R
If you obey the speed limit, get the sport touring and save 20k
Hate to say it, but all that red does not go well with that blue exterior. Otherwise amazing car!!
I would say Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, I really love the blue with the red interior
Championship White is the way.
@@KayJayEmzlooks like superman to me
Proper contrast exists, and red/blue is among the best ways to do it. It’s all subjective.
Here’s my 17 things ppl should know about is the same as the 2023 ctr
wanna see this engine swapped into a EG Hatch or Honda FIT, built engine, BIG Turbo............................wowza
GR Corolla much better!
Eggssg
Golf r not even a question
awd?
@@dwnshft yep
@@dnice362 I feel it
I went from a 6MT Mk7.5 R to an FL5 two months ago. Loving it.
Lol I think the golf r comes in dead last in every comparison that I've seen it in
Y'all crowning on the 10th GEN Type R. That sucker was TIGHT! Now the 11th GEN looks like a VW Golf R.
I just drove one of these. It's a nice car, but 300+ hp is too much for a fwd car.
Better than wrx sti. Not even close and not 4 wheels drive and 45 k oh hell nop i am not interested. I will stick with my WRX STI twin turbo engine.
It looks like a family car. Not sports
Why would anyone buy this over bmw m340i ( at msrp civic type r is about $10k cheaper but not market)
It's two different cars. Different experience
Honda can you make me the worlds first 11 gen automatic AWD R
hate type R don’t have a speaker on the back surround system on the 😡👎trunk
