Fellow fl5 owner. There is only 1 car that shares the practicality and performance of this car, CT5-V Blackwing. These cars make me rethink what I want out of my cars every time I window shop
100%, hit the nail on the head. Both the FK8 and FL5 are the perfect single car solution for getting groceries and setting lap times. I find my FL5 is a bit better on the road daily driving than my FK8 was, but they are both superb vehicles. Glad to see you back in a Civic Type R, hope to see you at a Time Trial someday.
💯 Love my FL5 and it’s my favorite all around car I’ve ever owned and I’ve had many.
And it’s a six speed with one of the best gear boxes out there.
Fk8 its still good own my sence new 2017 101.000 miles on it still drive wonderfull and like new very comfort drive
Totally agree. I wish there was a track closer to where I live, the best daily driver I've ever owned as an fk8 owner some day I'll own both and the fk8 will be dedicated to the track and more modifications and the fl5 would be my ultimate daily driver
You just described the versatility of most hot hatches, its just that USA only has limited options so everyone loses their mind over the Type R. You could have swapped out the CTR for a Renault Megane RS Trophy and make the same video.
I agree for sure, probably the best do it all. There are some other good dailies out there that can take the track but none with this much trunk space that is easy to access and rear seats that are not a pain to get into and that can still do good times at a track.
Can’t wait to get my hands on one buddy, you don’t know ( i want One like yesterday )😅😅😅🤘🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
Hey Elias, glad to see that cool title!
Peace man, now I'll watch the video 🙂
Thanks man 👍💪✌
Bet nobody will be able to name another car that can hold up with the Type R, and not at that price tag either.
Currently have a FBO stage 2 Kona N on 200tw tires, been an absolutely phenomenal car. Miles are adding up and I'll be getting something new here with the next few months, seeing videos like this really make me want to get a Type R. I have a few gripes, though. Can't decide between the Type R, Golf R, S3, M240i, and a few others. The Type R checks the least amount of boxes for me, but I want it more than all of the others for a few different reasons lol.
have you tried test driving them? can't go wrong with any of what you mentioned at the end of the day
Elias, Thanks for sharing !
My track (Toronto Motorsport Park) is 2hrs drive. If it was closer like 1hr drive, then season pass would be cool... I'm seeing 24psi of boost, while my Elantra N tops out at 16psi, which may explain EN's lower oil temp... Rear camera for those future chase scenes would be cool.
Test drove one. Gotta say, didn't come away that impressed. Bloody awful at traffic light drags. Torque steer around tight bends. All the usual FWD nonsense. R-mode was bouncier than a kids trampoline and the engine note was actually so awful it became an irritation. Like a cross between an angry bee and a hairdryer. On the plus side, high speed handling was sensational, possessed excellent brakes, seats were the best I've ever sat in, the steering feel was GT3-like and that gear shift. None better. But in the end I walked away because I was hoping all the hype about his car finally taming the gremlins of FWD life were way overblown. It is, after all, built around a cheap hatchback designed to haul shopping and babies in relative safety,
As an fk8 owner, the only significant disappointment with the fl5 is that they didn't solve the overheating issues with this engine. At stock engine power, it should be really hard to overheat the fluids. Such a great car other than that.
Amazing video, I'd love to see the mph so I can see what speeds you de-accelerate on the curves. Ahhh it's so cool how the car is soo good at hugging the curbs. I still wish I could own one of these cars one day. How does the temps handle in comparison to the fk8? I remember your old videos from the fk8 and the struggles you went thru with her. Great video tho dude!
I’ll mount the camera lower on my helmet to peek at the mph
@@FlyinGato sweet! I can't wait to see!!!
What's it like (in terms of fun/enjoyment) driving a stock FL5 after the FK8 that was hooked up with suspension/etc? And how does this compare to all your chevy power? Seems like you come back to this one as your "happy place'. Do the limitations of stock get frustrating? Or is it still just fun to dance on the limits evdn though (presumably) theyre lower?
It would be a perfect car if it had rear AC vents.
I agree 100%. No middle seat ok fine but give me those rear AC vents. Give me a usb outlet
Its would be fine without the rear vent if the front ones worked decently but this is probably the worst AC I ever had
Mikstore has a rear vent kit which also has usb charge ports. My kit got delivered yesterday and I will be installing it soon. Problem solved.
@@chrissimmons9969 yeah, I saw that kit. Very cool they put that together. Would still be nice to have it from the factory and not have to drill and modify the car to make it fit. Baffles me that Malaysia gets rear AC vents in their Civics, but the rest of the world doesn’t.
@@ScubaSteve119 yeah I don't disagree. Also Asian and European models have parking sensors and the rear seats are microsuede as well.
i dont think so lol. bone stock plaid ran 1:14.2 and soon it will be 1:13s imho, bone stock. it also ran 9.2@151 at drag strip and can haul just as much crap in the car.
Perfect one car? , the way I look at 1 car garage it needs to go off road 4x4 trailes , than do some rally cross , than a track day , and it has to be a comfy for daily, and too brake all ur harts it's not fl5 it's a subaru sti or a porsche that's it
