My dream car. Sadly, we can only afford the City. I hope one day I would be able to drive this car. Beautiful. Thankyou for this

[palmkinggod]

Feeling more comfortable than I thought Great color 👍

Tedward, TheTopher, and now you have a sense of driving this car like a porsche

It would be cool if Honda did a 2L 4 cylinder turbocharged manual gearbox FR layout lightweight Coupe or Roadster. Maybe both! Something like the BRZ/MX5 but turbocharged which is what everyone wanted the BRZ to be. They didn't even had to make a new engine just use this has it is it doesn't need any more power or torque its more than fine for a lightweight car.

Woohoo! Finally got your hands on one. It's such an INCREDIBLE car. Only downside is the noise and pumped in tones - but that's an easy fix. Great review bro.

Your videos look amazing on a 4k tv.Thanks for shooting in 4k 60.

Would be interesting to see how it handles lower speed cornering with inclines in 1st gear. Then you would see the magic of the diff

Outstanding POV drive review of the 2023 Honda Civic Type R. I enjoyed the ride, MPH!

[andreaparadiso]

Great video! Like the mentioning of the competition. I have placed an order for a GR Corolla, but had the opportunity to purchase a new CTR and it’s pretty remarkable! I’m also 6’2” and around 220. Just thinking the Corolla is going to be too tight inside. Plus, the Civic just looks better out and inside!

[DBX]

I own a GR Corolla, and I still want to drive this car. I could barely even find one at the Honda dealer. My car is pretty exclusive itself.

[derekgaliee]

The Hyundai Elantra N I rather have! The N in the seats light up ! $42, 000.00 ! Dealerships will mark these up $3, 500- $7, 500.00

[Buragok]

That interior...is absolutely orgasmicly godly holy smokes i bloody love that!

[alengreen]

No LED lights in the rear, no vents USB ports arm rest and heated seats in the second row. No heated steering wheel, No HUD, No USB C ports in the front, No heated seats in the front, No glass roof, but $ 45k? very stable price

To be fair, performance to performance GR Corolla core with performance package is all you need to compete with the type R. GR Corolla Circuit edition is slightly heavier with no better performance gain compared to Core model w/ pp. Having said that Corolla core model with performance package can be had for $38, 175. That’s alot better performance per dollar proposition than the CTR. But I would still pick CTR over the GR Corolla due to the fact that CTR is still a better engaging car with arguably better stance, simplistic design in and out, and better ergonomics. Now people would argue both cars sold at above sticker. However based on my experience, GR Corolla can be had for a msrp whereas CTR is impossible to get one at msrp. Lowest I got quoted was 5k over. I have my deposit down for GR Corolla at msrp however within those waiting time, if CTR can be had for a msrp I would take the CTR

Great drive my dude! I haven't lived in CA for going on 5 years and this Drive had me reminiscing of the many hours of Driving through the Ortega Mountains from I.E to O.C and vice-versa. Thank you!

[kev_ket]

How does it compare in handling and fun with the MT supra 3.0 you drove?

[ApocalypticGaming]

They need to just bring back their iconic 90s-early 2000s sport coupes. The prelude, the s2000, even the del sol if done right would probably sell

[derekgaliee]

Windows need tinting ! Thanks for Sharing the shifter getting Hot ! Great Review 👍

[wojiaobill]

It's quite impressive they got over 300 hp and torque from a 4-cylinder

[BigBear--]

The trim around the shifter and mode buttons is actual aluminum, NOT plastic.
