    What’s changed for 2024
    Not much
    It’s now $1,000 more expensive than last year
    But that’s it
    What’s a Civic Type R
    This latest Generation is called FL5
    It replaces the most overstyled thing ever
    It’s FWD only
    It’s manual only
    And it’s hatchback only
    Engine
    Same 2.0T from last gen
    But some tweaks to the turbo and exhaust
    315 hp
    +9 from last gen
    You get 320 in the Integra Type S
    310 lbft
    +15 from last gen
    Most powerful Honda ever in the US
    Carbon Fiber covers
    Transmission
    6 speed only
    But ti’s the best 6 speed I’ve ever driven
    I thought it was all hype…no
    Perfect pedal box
    Perfect shift action
    Love the classic knob
    Auto-rev match is perfect
    Honda chill
    FWD only
    The big argument with the GR Corolla
    No torque steer
    Helical LSD
    Styling
    Looks SOOO much better now
    Still hatch only
    But so much cleaner design
    Red honda badge front & Type R
    Honeycomb everywhere
    Wheel arches & gill
    Hood scoop
    19 in wheels
    Smaller than last gen
    But wider than last gen
    Black lugs
    tires**
    Dope wing
    Still rear wiper, unlike LE
    Faux tail bar
    Red H on back
    Triple exhaust & diffuser
    Brakes
    13.8 in red brembos up front
    This is something I LOVED on track
    Braking performance was awesome
    Seats
    Red & Embossed
    Comfy AF
    NOT heated…wut
    Carpeting is red too
    That’s too much
    Dash
    Full width honeycomb like RS5
    Vent nipples
    Type R plack w/ serial number
    Drive modes
    Comfort, sport, individual
    +R
    Adjusts cluster
    Cluster
    Fully digital, nice
    Not super customizable
    +R
    And then revs on side
    Shift lights at top
    Actually kinda nice on track
    LogR
    Track stuff
    Kinda like AMG pages
    ALSO rates your lap
    So you know where to improve
    Infotainment
    Kinda middle of the road
    Not bad not amazing
    Reverse camera is pretty meh
    But wireless ACP…really all I need
    Wireless charger
    Rear seats
    Forgot to make the back seats red too lol
    Carpets still red
    Reasonable size
    Only 2 seats
    Cupholders take center seat
    No vents
    No chargers
    Be grateful you get cupholders
    Trunk
    AWESOME size
    Way bigger than GR Corolla
    World’s cleverest privacy cover
    Interior thoughts
    This is the nicest interior in the segment
    Way nicer than WRX
    Way nicer than GR corolla
    Elantra N is probably closest
    Price
    +1000 from last year
    Just under 45k to start
    5 colors (black and red free)

    For the people concerned that it’s a front wheel drive car. I live in Colorado and I owned a 2001 Acura Integra, which is front wheel drive. I had no issues in the snow. As long as your car isn’t rear wheel drive you’ll be fine. I’m talking specifically about snow not launching or anything like that.

    Awesome video and I hope at some point you can make a video on the Integra Type S, just would like to hear your thoughts and comparison. Also, selfishly I want to know if a 6'1 person can slouch a bit and not hit the roof sitting in the back seats in the Type S since we're the same height 😄. Think in some other video someone said the roof line is a little lower in the back of the Type S vs. the Type R.
