It's like an Civic EX mated with an Alienware laptop.

Honda finally did it. They made a manual transmission that *has issues*

The car overheated because at 1:36 there is a maple leaf stuck to the intake.

Honda Corporate: how many body kits should we add?
Honda Design: yes

I work at a Honda dealership and can confirm transmission issues. Someone from American Honda (corporate) brought in a company Type R and it was completely missing second gear.

As far as aesthetics go, it looks like someone built a life-size hot wheel car.

“Police lives matter” sticker but a cop magnet car.... that’s a bold move cotton

Every Japanese carmaker seems to just be shouting "GUUUUNDAAAAM!!" to their styling department and nothing else right now.

That nervous girl impression about adam needing to slow down was perfectly spot on

As a die-hard Honda fan and a member of the Gran Turismo generation that grew up idolizing all the Japanese sports cars that we couldn’t have here in the US... man, I really don’t like the Type R.

It’s a Civic but it’s absolutely massive. It’s a Civic but it’s terribly expensive. It’s a Civic but it’s so obnoxiously styled and loud. I feel like this car is trying to overcompensate for what it is. The original Type R’s were performance kings but they weren’t so in-your-face about it.

I’m not saying it’s a bad car; it really is amazing. It’s fast, *really* fast. No torque steer in a FWD car? Comfortable and user-friendly enough to daily? That’s last bit is certainly not something any other Type R Honda really was, save for maybe the DC5 Integra.

But it just doesn’t “seem” like a Civic Type R to me. It feels like a kitted out Honda with the biggest bodykit stuck to it; the kind of Honda you could build after unlocking all the upgrades in a Need for Speed game. It doesn’t act the part of “factory sleeper”, or failing that, a “factory club car for the street”. It’s just feels a Civic that’s bigger than it should be, wearing an even bigger skirt.

The way modern car design, trends and safety standards are headed now may mean we never get another raw, tight, and classy factory club racer like the original EK9 and DC2 Type R’s, but regardless, I don’t feel like this was a step in the right direction for introducing a new incarnation of the Type R nameplate.

I knew Mr Regular had a single person bed... I knew it. I imagine how dates go with him...
"Alright, Mr Regular, what hobbies do you have?
- I LIKE TO POOP BECAUSE IT'S BROWN!!! BROWN IS THE PUREST COLOR! MY POOP IS BROWN! MY POOP IS BROWN!
Which explains the single bed.
