      I think it is truly a superb car. Punching way above its weight class in terms of driver enjoyment

    fl5 owner here. It's a really good car, I love it. but it doesn't have that old school Honda roar to it. It's almost too good

      Seems the first thing owners do when they get it is to put a new exhaust on it

      Easily fixed - install an aftermarket exhaust 😅

    Nice review! I have been trying to find a fun car to replace my Cadillac CTS-V wagon, and the Type R is one of the top 3 on my list. I test drove one and I had the biggest grin while slicing through turns, and it's awesome how the back end kicks out on some turns (I believe Honda applies rear brakes to do this). The 8Y Audi RS3 (only automatic) and Cadillac CT4V Blackwing are also on my list, more powerful but I swear the Type R was the most fun.

      Cadillac does not have a big footing i Europe unfortunately so no dealership network. Drove the previous CTS-V with the C7 Z06 engine. Loved it. I do think the new CT4V is a very underrated car. The RS3 is softer than the FL5, but all of these 3 cars offer a very different setup. FWD, AWD and RWD, so it comes to preference and what you will use it for

      @@HonestCarReviews Actually, no hothatches are selling well here. They are all getting too expensive, the Golfs gti's where real succes cars here, not anymore since the mk8. Like i said, prices are getting out of hand. People react with their wallets, and i like that. VW has to close factory's, if that isnt a wake up call...

    It is overpriced in 2024. That’s why the FK8 will always be better. Virtually same performance and it was significantly cheaper when first released.

    • @HonestCarReviews

      I think it is the best modern civic type R yet, but the FK8 was/is amazing. The looks is the only thing that made it not liked by everyone. Have seriously thought about buying one
