2024 Honda Civic Type R - POV DRIVE (FAST)

The 2024 Honda Civic Type R is a better car than you may think. This was an absolute blast to drive. Let's go for a POV drive in the 2024 Honda Civic Type R!

Just took delivery of my 2025 and WOOOW WHAT A MACHINEEE! Blessed to have such a car at this age🙌🏽

I’ve owned 2 FK8s and they certainly do not feel uncontrollable around corners. Quite the opposite, I can take corners double or triple the posted limit and it feels confidence inspiring and completely planted. That’s what this car is all about, its track handling capabilities. It’s also not all over the place in a straight line at 6k rpms. The torque steer is non existent like it is in other FWD cars. Dude you need some new tires or something. I’m coming from every RWD sports car you can think of and it handles better than most of those. It doesn’t feel weird being FWD, that’s in your head dude. It makes max torque at like 2500 rpms, mine doesn’t have a sudden power burst at 5k rpms. It pulls super hard down low and remains constant until redline. This car doesn’t have the old school VTEC from the 1990s. It only has exhaust cam VTEC. The old Hondas had intake and exhaust cam VTEC. I think you came into this review with a preconceived notion about Hondas because almost everything you said is the exact opposite of how the car actually is lol.

The mark up on these is crazy lol, still a great car though 🤩

It would be interesting for you to try driving a eighth or 9th gen Civic SI so you could get the experience of torque steer and have a much more enjoyable engine note in a front wheel drive car that you can drive hard. As fast as the Type R is, the torque steer on the SIs are much worse because they don't have that steering knuckle or whatever it is that's aligned the same way.

i am planning to buy this model FL5. Can you recommended a good dealer to buy from and how much should i pay buying new. So many are asking 7k markups over MSRP

[hecks_k_fa]

Sorry but I’d rather put $10k in my 8th gen Si and blow the doors off those new Type R! Lol

@Cyberskunk90 I’m sorry Bruh
A used G70 😂 46k ! ? My deepest and sincere condolences 😆

Lowkey only car reviewer i actually enjoy watching

Question for all the Honda guys or people considering this. Why not get a Mk7 or Mk8 GTI? Most trims have big ventilated brakes and a LSD stock. The stock turbo can make 330 bhp and 370 ft/lbs at the crank with a flash tune and a downpipe. It is available with a manual and DSG transmission that are both very capable. Upgrading the rear sway bar can make the cars extremely neutral. Upgrading the turbo to a Golf R turbo can produce about 400hp/400 flt lbs at the crank and moves the power band up top, it's also relatively inexpensive. These two generations are very reliable too (outside maybe first model year for each gen). Why spend extra money on this? It's pretty but a lot of $$$

[HolupMF]

the car is definitely worth its price if it was RWD the front wheel drive has a few flaws like drift and when you floor a car the front rises a bit and wheel looses traction

[gonzoone]

I just bought my 2024 and yeah well worth it.

[leviblanchard]

Do you live in kings mountain man? You drove right by my house jn the video 😂

[LevelUpSimRacing]

Better be your dreamcar for 60-70k definitely not worth it

[shibidi]

Felt good smoking one of these with a punk teenager driving it. Smoked him with a 13 year old Audi S4 that cost $12k lol

[bamaboyburns]

I’d definitely pay 46k it’s a nice car and unique and it’s fast and it’s a Honda this will last many many years so you will definitely get your money worth

[Trenchluv]

Not sure if you can get these for MSRP yet. For MSRP I would definitely get one. For anything over. No way sorry the car is barely worth MSRP 46k. Anything more you're silly if you paid 5 or 10 k markup.

[didiz]

The first civic to not be available in Norway 😢… car is to expensive after tax. 60k +35k in taxes… looking at basically95-100k for a civic type r.

[trigganometry]

Still waiting for Honda to sell these at msrp.

[kamalthapa]

[CP_PO]
