  • Both of these cars are amazing. Insanely similar (built on the same chassis)
    We're not just about specs and speeds; we bring you the quirks, the fun facts, and yes, even the dad jokes. Whether you're a car enthusiast or just in it for the laughs, we've got you covered.
    There are many comparison out there about the driving! Spoiler alert we drove them back to back and the differences are minor when it comes to the performance on the street. The subtle difference we mention here are more so important!

    lol all the people who think these cars are a let down clearly haven’t driven them lol. Tell me you can’t afford one without telling me you can’t afford one lol.

      Agreed, I had my fair share of cars and I feel these two will hold my attention for a long time.

    Thank you all for watching, I know i'm huffing and puffing and moving with haste. My buddy had to go somewhere and I just wanted to through as many things as possible!

      All in all, for $7,000 more for the Integra Type S is definitely a premium over the Civic Type R. It better... be... well better.
      For the majority of people it is, but for those enthusiast looking for a race car for the road get the Type R and put that 7,000 somewhere else!

      I have a 2014 EVO X //MR (3k Miles) and a 2021 CVC X //TR (2k Miles) Both X Genz HEHE Love it!!
      Just got the ACURA INTEGRA TYPE S!!! The Type S to me looks more of a Type R design wise...having it side by side to my FK8...definitely looks like Brothers HAHA!
      Really hoping we can purchase the Type R seats to put in the Type S without any fitment issues...also hoping someone comes out with a more aggressive lip wing or big wing that flows like the my FK8 (not a fan of the new TRs wing, doesn't flow lol)
      Also should've included if you can purchase a spare tire for the new TR and TS like the FK8 which I did...hoping the new cars has a slot for it

    I just picked up the ITS. I had an FK8 CTR and I understand being a big dude in the ctr is tough. I switched out the ctr seats for LX civic seats and it made it easier. Now owning the ITS I don't have that problem. Good side by side comparison

    For a single car, multi-purpose vehicle I'd say the ITS. Having multiple cars I picked up the CTR.

    Personally I didn’t like pops. But I agree that the sound of the ITS without the extra resonator is much more better.

    Once you make a video on whether the typeR seats is a direct Swap to the type S 🫶🏿🙌🏿🫶🏿 I’ll be sure to be getting the type S for sure 👍🏿 😊

      Do you like the Type R seats? Everyone raved about them, but as someone with kyphosis, I find them unremarkable.

    • @lbcitylacounty4982
      @lbcitylacounty4982 6 місяців тому

      Same here...can't wait for someone to try putting the Type R seats in the Type S!!!

    • @JohnNguyenVincent
      @JohnNguyenVincent  3 місяці тому

      I could be the one to do. My buddy doesn't really fit in his type R seats. I don't find the type R seats particular comfortable myself. The FK8 i did though!
      the FL5 Type R seats are sexy though. Might do it!

  • @Ap2s2kbro

    I’d definitely take the type s over type r everything is better except for cluster, fender and the log data. I rather have the red leather seats even tho bucket seats are cool

    Just buy the black antenna from the dealer, it’s metallic black but it looks awesome and it’s inexpensive. Wrap is not effective on antenna it’s lifts.

    The ctr looks like they didn’t remove the transport blocks. Front end sits kind of high

      Dude I got the fl5 two weeks ago and thought the same thing… there’s actually hella plastic from the shipping that are on there, you have to cut the zip tie and take them off 🤦🏻‍♂️ I just found this out today

    Civic Type R for the win on looks inside and out to me. I have a FL5 CTR and paid about what the ITS costs, but I wasn’t able to get an ITS for MSRP by me either. The CTR was an easy choice for me for that alone. Dealerships and their insane markups are ruining everything!

    • @JohnNguyenVincent
      @JohnNguyenVincent  6 місяців тому +1

      type R has the more special feeling interior with just those seats alone!
      Good choice!

    the "way to expensive" comments are comical. Is there anything on the planet that isnt 25-30% more expensive than it was pre pandemic? Houses are up easy 50% in many areas since 2019. Every dinner with the lady is now $200 and longer $150. Weekly groceries. Even your beloved Chick filet chicken sandwich is up 21% since 2021. You get the point. So if you think 40k is the number you need to crawl out from underneath that rock. %30 more than 40k puts it square at $52k. Welcome to our new reality. Please spare me my used 2018 Mustang that can be had for $23k will smoke it..

    • @JohnNguyenVincent
      @JohnNguyenVincent  6 місяців тому

      I totally agree with you! Inflation is out of hand.
      On the bright side, the car market has soften a bit and both the FL5 and DE5 were picked up for MSRP.

    • @xmunitrader
      @xmunitrader 6 місяців тому +1

      yes Im seeing that AS well Sorry to hijack the post but every youtube post about the ITS gets a bunch of "its to expensive" comments and I just would love to have a real open discussion about real value in todays environment. Cross shoppping this with Audi RS3, Alpha Romeo Giulia QV and the CT4V BW.. all great cars . hmmm

    Ehhh... They're both outdated and an odd ball car. Looks nothing like a sports car. Other than that, they're just funky.

    • @JohnNguyenVincent
      @JohnNguyenVincent  6 місяців тому

      Got my NSX to flex. These cars are more for the everyday enthusiast.
      I recently just had my first child so the NSX (2 seater) isn't getting as much love.

    Damn both cars are a let down for the price.

    • @JohnNguyenVincent
      @JohnNguyenVincent  6 місяців тому +2

      I wouldn't say let down but they are both very expensive.
