SCOTTY!!! I NEED HELP ... I have a 2010 dodge challenger 3.5l v6 ... long story short I was driving and my timing belt decided to go and its a interference engine so a few valves hit the piston head. Tore it down sent them to be machined . Got em back installed em and now im trying to start the car the cams seemed very hard to turn when I was doing TDC timing but I struggled and managed to get them TDC ... I felt like they were way too hard to move so how could the timing belt move them but ik the motor is stronger than me .... put every thing else together went to start the car it turns very slowly ... I figured it was the battery was down so I connected jumper cables and got the same result....took the battery to autozone got it tested and charged came back still the same very slow turning... now battery is low again from trying... something doesnt seem right or do I just need to keep trieng so it builds oil pressure to lube the new heads I installed after getting it machined ?????
@@glenmores6507 you do realize CVT is in automatic transmissions? Fyi this Honda has a manual transmission, most type R have manual transmission, so no CVT problems! Genious!
My wife bought one. 2017 model. I can tell you it is fun to drive. Only maintenance problems are the tires, Conti Pros. Wears em out and they are pricey. Road noise is pretty loud too. Road drone makes me sleepy whenever I ride with her. Im making the last payment in August and am more than happy with it.
As a type R owner and not having watched the video yet I can tell you the R is practical & fun in all the right ways. I absolutely love the car and would 10/10 recommend it. With some nice all seasons or decent winter tires, the car had no issues in feet of NY snow either.
youwaisef Scotty always says don’t buy 4 cylinders turbocharged cars, but this Civic Type R is a 4 cylinder turbo and he says he’s “buying it”. But that was a joke
My son has one. He let me drive it when he first got it and it's an incredibly fun car to drive. Like you said it's a very well built car and nothing was spared to "cheapen" the car. If that is your sort of vehicle(not for me), it is worth every penny of the $40,000 he paid for it.
It’s really a $30k car with a $10k dealer markup. I say wait for them to show up in the used car market. According to my Honda dealer, it’s mostly kids in their 20s buying them because they are the “cool” car. When the novelty wears off in a year or two, you will probably be able to get one for the cost of the Si.
He’s got a point, historically reliable engines have had less than 100 HP per liter. Now if you were going to buy a turbo car I could guarantee that Honda, a company that makes world renown engines would probably be ur best bet. Just look at what spoon does with stock civic engines. They don’t have to modify them and just off a tune they can get 25-50 hp more right away. Honda always under tunes they’re cars from the factory regardless of how much HP it’s rated for
It's all about the application. There's nothing wrong with putting turbo GDI engines in race cars because it's understood that you're sacrificing simplicity and reliability for power. The problem comes when you put all that technology into daily driver cars which exist solely to be reliable; case in point: the Honda 1.5L GDI turbo motor. If you ask me, basic commuter cars should all have N/A SOHC or OHV engines. Just my two cents.
Lol. The car already looks rough. Curb rash like a mug on those rims, filthy interior. I won't have my dogs in an expensive car like that, but to each his own.
@@clutchem ya this owner doesn't.respect his car... Also if you own this car... You don't let anyone go under her skirt but.yoirself... not even your cool uncle like Scotty..
Caleb Gordon Expensive? The average new car price in 2020 is $37,851. Sorry to say man but this isn’t an expensive car- it’s an exactly average priced car. It’s certainly an expensive Civic but it’s still a Civic. At it’s core this is a hatchback meant for getting to and from the grocery store. It just happens to be one that will allow you to attack your favorite road on the way there. Personally I don’t like the looks or the questionable reliability of this 2.0L motor but in terms of functionality and fun to drive this would be my choice over something like an A3/S3 hatch simply because I can get it in manual (assuming the 3 hatch comes back to the states).
@Freyja Frigg I agree on the first part that many manuals nowadays are rigged electronically. Hill hold especially which I find annoying. But on second part, I daily a manual in stop and go traffics, and in traffic jams all the time so does many other people I know. Just gotta be patient and enjoy time to yourself, turn on your favorite music ect, just like driving any car. And automatics would not really sell as well on these types of cars, maybe on a regular civic tho.
@Freyja Frigg well I'm in the UK and although autos are selling well here, manuals still outsell autos by a huge margin since our driving curriculum is based on the manual transmission
@Freyja Frigg the local Honda dealer near me says a different story. Manuals are slightly more popular. The local Kia dealer keeps running out of manual equipt Forte GT while dct equipt ones wait on the lot a bit longer. I was lucky on the day when manual equipt Souls were delivered on the lot and I bought one right away. At the end of the day, all 4 manual Souls were gone. Thats here in Texas
An amazing vehicle. Here is an interesting fact about it. On the window sticker for this car is a disclaimer that the tire life is likely to less than 10,000 miles. One report of someone getting 8,000 miles from the tires. The tires lose traction when temperature is under 45 degrees Fahrenheit. The tires can crack when exposed to cold temperatures. For cold climates you need to put on all season tires and preferably spare wheels when it gets cold. The factory tires are 30 series and essentially racing tires.
@@gottawatch1932 Well my type R cost me 36,000K because one of my cousins worked at the dealership. It's a 10/10 Car the maintenance is the equivalent of any civic and the gas mileage is average (not as good as a Civic or Corolla). Definitely a car you can daily if you baby it. It feels like butter on turns so quick. Like I said 10/10 car worth every penny.
For all of the Honda haters out there, I own a 2019 GTI and I can tell you with full confidence, that this Honda is very well built. I don't even like Honda, but Type R is very well built. Engine and suspension is over engineered, it's a very suitable price set for what it does. Other manufacturers , would not have this QULITY BUILD and for the same price. No Way.
Love it that this review was done in Houston- and your inspection sticker was 4/20. Anyways most people won’t understand this car. But I had a 1998 Civic EX. 1.6 liter n/a and put a cold air and exhaust back in 2000, and then we all wanted to get to 200whp. So I think in today’s standard most laugh at 306whp, but for Honda owners they know how much tuning has to be done to these small displacement motors to get those results and appreciate Honda for giving it to the purist.
Cindy Sue hmmmm they’re not on the same level tho Sure the Veloster N is a great car for the money but the Civic Type R performs better and holds its value well
@@basithph8958 the veloster n isnt that far under the type r, it's about 80% of the way between the si and the type r, and the veloster turbo really competes with the si
It's one of the most versatile new cars out in the market right now: Honda reliability, practical, best combination of daily and track performance, and it really does look fantastic!
Badge# 34907. Not 1 grind in 3400 miles... People just think fast and furious gear banging is how youre supposed to shift a stock gearbox, then say its crap when they grind. Nope, driver error. 4 Honda manuals across 13 years. Maybe 5 grinds in that time, all were my fault.
I just bought a low mileage 2018 in that same gorgeous Aegean Blue. Traded a perfectly good '17 SI. The tradeoff is worth it to me. But that SI is the real overall value. The Type R does have a larger turning circle, worse mileage, and less robust tires. But in every other way- you get what you pay for. Weighs 200 more lbs. than the SI but 50 % more power, better brakes, steering, and grip. More storage. Infinitely better seats and style. Plus hatchbacks rule. Higher rev limit. So what am I saying? The Civic SI and Civic Type R are two of the very best cars out there.
Damn Scotty was having so much fun with this car!! I think it's time you rewarded yourself for 50 years of hard work! Go ahead and buy one of these monsters 😁
Jude Martin Arsulo I wish he does, but he won't, because he is utterly cheap....he will leave his millions to the heirs...luck them, they will inherit EVERYTHING, including the Celica!
That's not curb rash. That's from changing the tires. They're an odd shape requiring a specific tire machine, This is the result of trying it with the wrong one. Curb rash on these wheels is always towards the middle of the spoke because they protrude outwards
I have a civic coupe and a BMW 4 series..The Honda isn't even in the same league in handling, but I guess if you haven't driven a BMW you wouldn't know the difference...
@@sethpeterson412 I bought my 428 m-sport with 33k miles on it and with a 36k warranty to 79k miles for 21k...it also gets 37 mpg when I am on the highway...I haven driven it 12k miles and hasn't cost me nothing..
7:27 *Two nearby cops in a police cruiser take notice* Cop 1: We got a speeder! Let's go hot! *turns on lights* Cop 2: *turns off lights* You must be new to this particular neighborhood. That's just Scotty Kilmer...again.
There are plenty of fun cars that don't require a payment. My daily driver is a 2006 SS Impala. That 5.3 is a blast and you can pick them up for 3 to 5k.
The 2.0T Accord has the same engine detuned to about 250HP; it uses smaller turbo that spools a bit faster, and the torque develops at lower RPM, so it's more suited to normal driving but still has quite a bit of power. If you're looking for something moderately sporty but a bit more practical and comfortable for daily driving than the Type R, it's worth a look.
I think its safe to say Scotty is a fan of Honda's. I am too, I swear by them, they make the best cars out there and small engines you can buy. I have a Honda Accord and a Honda Fourtrax and a honda lawn mower haha!
I am a fan of Honda as a company too! I have a 03 Pilot with 190000 miles, 05 450X motorcycle, and a 27 year old Honda Harmony lawnmower that never takes more than 3 pulls to start. All have been great machines.
@@TheTheAdministratoryno doubt. Bought all of them new except the Pilot. It had 17000 miles on it when we bought it. My neighbors thought I was nuts when I paid $400 for the Honda lawnmower 27 years ago. They have been through two or three lawnmowers by now.
Bought brand new 2014 civic si red sedan 9th gen. It's 140k miles now, no issues at all, I drive a lot for work. Never had any problems, just regular oil change maintenance. Still drives like the first time i got it off the lot at 9miles on the meter. Just washed her today cuz its nice out. Forgot to say, was so happy with the reliability, bought a brand new 2018 civil si red sedan for my wife. Hers is even better gets 40mpg, and the turbo torque is much better than my 9th gen. I was planning to buy the type r but sadly at that time they were marked at 50k, so we went with the si.
I just want to correct you on one topic. The side vents on the fenders are not for cooling. The hood scoop redirects the air to those vents which follow the door in a curtain and go up over the rear wheel arch for extra down force at speed. That's also why the side skirt sticks out so far.
@@albertmargallo855 those years were pretty bulletproof. But I want to say the 04-10 era suffers in the starter department. To the point that there's even a bulletin on the accord to rotate the flywheel one bolt hole because somehow that improves the starter alignment
@@patharmon9760 the starters themselves are ok, it's when batteries get weak and ppl just crank away to get the car to start anyway that they get clapped up
I am almost completely satisfied with my recently purchased red with black interior 1990 Honda Civic 4-door five-speed. A person could drive a used Honda such as I have and get cheaper transportation than the bus. It keeps me awake because it's like driving a butterfly or something delicate.
I’m personally waiting for Mazda’s next gen I6 Mazda6, that car looks like a potential stunner, I just hope they offer an AWD option as I live NorthEast US.
Bought a 2019 Ford Mustang Convertible EcoBoost premium back in 2019 with only 6k miles for $20k. 21mpg city / 32mpg hwy. Better looking car in my opinion and it was only 20k with all premium features. It’s been a great car 2 years after, no problems whatsoever. Thing looks beastly and has 310 HP with 4 cylinders.
My daugther bought a 2 door special edition accord, V6 limited slip dif and probabbly the same 6 speed manual. Would spin tires even when changing to third gear. Great car sold it after several years, Got married and kid on the way, and no space for child seat. Bought a four door 4 cyl Accord. Remember when Super Bowl went to Tampa and she rented a Viper to show off
Andrew Evanoff not true at all. My 2013 Accord has 105K mikes on then and nothing has broken or decreased function. Never needed anything but regular maintenance and a new battery
I'm 63 years old and have 6k miles on my Type R. It's a fantastic machine. No need to match revs when downshifting, she does that for you but it can be disabled.
It's because if the owner drives hard the tires on these cars wear out fast, I believe they only have a 8 to 10k lifespan thus more wear on the paint when changing out tires.
Years ago, late 80s/early 90s, Honda made the 3rd generation Prelude. Lots of horses in a 2.0L 4. Front wheel drive, but handles like crazy. Even made a 4 wheel steering version that was very cool. Certain aspects of this evokes those old Preludes for me.
In addition to a tornado-siren, I'm wondering if your neighborhood has a Scotty-siren. When it goes off, make sure your kids are nowhere near the road - Scotty is about to test drive a car !
Your buying a Civic Type R Scotty? BUYYYY IT!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSS You will love it!... I gave a Ford Focus RS (a car that has 350hp) a run for their money on the highway today, if there wasn't traffic in the way I would have got him on my Top End. They didn't pull away from me though, I didn't get gapped.. they actually cut me off when I was trying to do a pull.
_ ZAVALA it’s the first thing I look at when buying a car, I’ve had my 01 prelude for 15 years now and the rims still look new besides a few tiny rock chips,but they’re barely visible.
Scotty: never buy turbocharged cars! Scotty: modern cars have way too much electronic and plastic crap!.. Proceeds to endorse electronic features, plastic aerodynamic parts and turbocharged engine.
there is a difference between some plastic aerodynamics bodywork crap and plastic engine components that have no business being plastic like intake manifolds and water pumps.
As a Civic owner, I have a love/hate relationship with this car. I think it’s an engineering marvel. Right out of the factory it’s a blast. But that’s just it, factory, OEM, stock. This isn’t one of those cars you can modify and make your own. Like Scotty said, everything in this car has a purpose. If you change almost anything, you mess up it’s perfectly tuned formula. I own a 9th gen 2015 Civic si FB6. I love the thing because I can upgrade/tweak/tune it myself. Civic’s have always been this way, and have a strong aftermarket. For example, 90% of the Si you encounter on the road will be modified. It’s arguably the best part of owning one and truly the best way to experience owning a Civic IMO. TLDR: •Buy the Civic Type R if you prefer a complete, no hassle track/street weapon. •Buy any other Si to create your own fully customizable track/street weapon. (P.s. Any civic with a K20/k24 engine, either stock or K-swapped with good modification has the potential to blow the doors off a Type R. These engines are essentially the “people choice” for 4-Cylinder tuning engines and have more R&D from tuners than almost any other engine of their class.)
Scotty. If you love the civic, I honestly think you’ll love the accord sport 2.0t 6spd. It’s basically a civic type r that’s just slightly larger and more for daily driving.

Caleb Gordon Expensive? The average new car price in 2020 is $37,851. Sorry to say man but this isn’t an expensive car- it’s an exactly average priced car. It’s certainly an expensive Civic but it’s still a Civic. At it’s core this is a hatchback meant for getting to and from the grocery store. It just happens to be one that will allow you to attack your favorite road on the way there. Personally I don’t like the looks or the questionable reliability of this 2.0L motor but in terms of functionality and fun to drive this would be my choice over something like an A3/S3 hatch simply because I can get it in manual (assuming the 3 hatch comes back to the states).
The engineering behind eliminating the torque steer through moving the pivot points in the front suspension is just brilliant.
Scotty we both know you’re too cheap to buy this car you would wait for it to be 20 years old to even consider buying it.
...and we love you for that
Only available with a manual, so Honda is doing it right
@Freyja Frigg wtf?? It's not hard to use this manual transmission everyday even through traffic I do it all the time not an issue
@Freyja Frigg I agree on the first part that many manuals nowadays are rigged electronically. Hill hold especially which I find annoying. But on second part, I daily a manual in stop and go traffics, and in traffic jams all the time so does many other people I know. Just gotta be patient and enjoy time to yourself, turn on your favorite music ect, just like driving any car. And automatics would not really sell as well on these types of cars, maybe on a regular civic tho.
@@ryadhasanahmed5443 i lived in LA driving a manual car everyday and its like butter. No worries of the car lurching and acting erratically
@Freyja Frigg well I'm in the UK and although autos are selling well here, manuals still outsell autos by a huge margin since our driving curriculum is based on the manual transmission
@Freyja Frigg the local Honda dealer near me says a different story. Manuals are slightly more popular. The local Kia dealer keeps running out of manual equipt Forte GT while dct equipt ones wait on the lot a bit longer. I was lucky on the day when manual equipt Souls were delivered on the lot and I bought one right away. At the end of the day, all 4 manual Souls were gone. Thats here in Texas
An amazing vehicle. Here is an interesting fact about it. On the window sticker for this car is a disclaimer that the tire life is likely to less than 10,000 miles. One report of someone getting 8,000 miles from the tires. The tires lose traction when temperature is under 45 degrees Fahrenheit. The tires can crack when exposed to cold temperatures. For cold climates you need to put on all season tires and preferably spare wheels when it gets cold. The factory tires are 30 series and essentially racing tires.
That Type R is amazing, i hope you do get one.
Not for 38,000 grand its not

I absolutely Love my Type-R. Definitely bought it to use it for it's full potential. So glad that this is going to be a durable long term car for me
Don't know about a performance engine being long term
How bout now, 11 months later, how’s your ownership, maintenance cost, issues??? Asking because thinking of buying one.
@@gottawatch1932 Well my type R cost me 36,000K because one of my cousins worked at the dealership. It's a 10/10 Car the maintenance is the equivalent of any civic and the gas mileage is average (not as good as a Civic or Corolla). Definitely a car you can daily if you baby it. It feels like butter on turns so quick. Like I said 10/10 car worth every penny.
@@gottawatch1932 I have one with 37,000 miles on it. Absolutely fantastic vehicle.
For all of the Honda haters out there, I own a 2019 GTI and I can tell you with full confidence, that this Honda is very well built. I don't even like Honda, but Type R is very well built. Engine and suspension is over engineered, it's a very suitable price set for what it does. Other manufacturers , would not have this QULITY BUILD and for the same price. No Way.

@@bakedpotato1238 Most rich kids would see the Type R as just a Honda and would buy a something with "status".
😂😂👍😂😂
Love it that this review was done in Houston- and your inspection sticker was 4/20.
Anyways most people won’t understand this car. But I had a 1998 Civic EX. 1.6 liter n/a and put a cold air and exhaust back in 2000, and then we all wanted to get to 200whp.
So I think in today’s standard most laugh at 306whp, but for Honda owners they know how much tuning has to be done to these small displacement motors to get those results and appreciate Honda for giving it to the purist.
The Honda Civic Type R is a great car that’s practical while it’s also built for performance
Same with the Veloster N coming soon with a DCT as an option.
Cindy Sue hmmmm they’re not on the same level tho
Sure the Veloster N is a great car for the money but the Civic Type R performs better and holds its value well
@@basithph8958 the veloster n isnt that far under the type r, it's about 80% of the way between the si and the type r, and the veloster turbo really competes with the si
It's one of the most versatile new cars out in the market right now: Honda reliability, practical, best combination of daily and track performance, and it really does look fantastic!
@@filopride619 oh yes it does!
the Type-R is badass
The Type-R is a piece of crap
Larry N haters gon hate. He’s never even owned the car
Larry N sod off
Until you find out that the transmission gear cogs break from spirited driving.
Badge# 34907. Not 1 grind in 3400 miles... People just think fast and furious gear banging is how youre supposed to shift a stock gearbox, then say its crap when they grind. Nope, driver error. 4 Honda manuals across 13 years. Maybe 5 grinds in that time, all were my fault.
I just bought a low mileage 2018 in that same gorgeous Aegean Blue. Traded a perfectly good '17 SI. The tradeoff is worth it to me. But that SI is the real overall value. The Type R does have a larger turning circle, worse mileage, and less robust tires. But in every other way- you get what you pay for. Weighs 200 more lbs. than the SI but 50 % more power, better brakes, steering, and grip. More storage. Infinitely better seats and style. Plus hatchbacks rule. Higher rev limit. So what am I saying? The Civic SI and Civic Type R are two of the very best cars out there.
Damn Scotty was having so much fun with this car!! I think it's time you rewarded yourself for 50 years of hard work! Go ahead and buy one of these monsters 😁

2:07 - the owner really curbed the crap outta those wheels!
Bruh, my heart broke. I see it happening to a boxy muscle car. My Focus RS wheels are still intact after 29k miles
That's not curb rash. That's from changing the tires. They're an odd shape requiring a specific tire machine, This is the result of trying it with the wrong one. Curb rash on these wheels is always towards the middle of the spoke because they protrude outwards
Bro people getting their wheels jacked up in NY 🤦♂️ look at this guy smh.
I saw that too. I have the same car same year in championship white and my rims are spotless
I cringed so hard seeing that
I have a 2019 Civic Sport and it corners really good as well. Honda is amazing at making cars handle. I’m really impressed
I have a civic coupe and a BMW 4 series..The Honda isn't even in the same league in handling, but I guess if you haven't driven a BMW you wouldn't know the difference...

It looks like he really had fun driving that.
If I wasn’t about that “no car payment” life, I’d seriously look at one.
There are plenty of fun cars that don't require a payment. My daily driver is a 2006 SS Impala. That 5.3 is a blast and you can pick them up for 3 to 5k.
Travis Callahan an impala ss? Really. That ain’t fun at all. 👏🏻👏🏻
The 2.0T Accord has the same engine detuned to about 250HP; it uses smaller turbo that spools a bit faster, and the torque develops at lower RPM, so it's more suited to normal driving but still has quite a bit of power. If you're looking for something moderately sporty but a bit more practical and comfortable for daily driving than the Type R, it's worth a look.
I think its safe to say Scotty is a fan of Honda's. I am too, I swear by them, they make the best cars out there and small engines you can buy. I have a Honda Accord and a Honda Fourtrax and a honda lawn mower haha!
Me too. The lawnmower is my daily.
I am a fan of Honda as a company too! I have a 03 Pilot with 190000 miles, 05 450X motorcycle, and a 27 year old Honda Harmony lawnmower that never takes more than 3 pulls to start. All have been great machines.
Good for you! Everyone buys what they can afford, right?
@@TheTheAdministratoryno doubt. Bought all of them new except the Pilot. It had 17000 miles on it when we bought it. My neighbors thought I was nuts when I paid $400 for the Honda lawnmower 27 years ago. They have been through two or three lawnmowers by now.
Bought brand new 2014 civic si red sedan 9th gen. It's 140k miles now, no issues at all, I drive a lot for work. Never had any problems, just regular oil change maintenance. Still drives like the first time i got it off the lot at 9miles on the meter. Just washed her today cuz its nice out. Forgot to say, was so happy with the reliability, bought a brand new 2018 civil si red sedan for my wife. Hers is even better gets 40mpg, and the turbo torque is much better than my 9th gen.
I was planning to buy the type r but sadly at that time they were marked at 50k, so we went with the si.

The previous owner put about as much love and care into it as those scratched to funk alloys!
Scotty: Honda Type R is the best car ever made!
‘94 Toyota Celica: Am i a joke to you!?
Jair Molina no the Toyota celica is still best sports car even today
No, Celicas are still really good cars!
Celicas are no match for Civic Type Rs
I just want to correct you on one topic. The side vents on the fenders are not for cooling. The hood scoop redirects the air to those vents which follow the door in a curtain and go up over the rear wheel arch for extra down force at speed. That's also why the side skirt sticks out so far.
Scotty’s sarcasm was so strong it convinced enough viewers into thinking there was a better car than the 94’ Celica. Well played Scotty.
“Of course being a Honda it starts right up “ lmaoo
As a honda tech, this comment is genuinely hilarious.
I own 94 accord, left it sitting for a year, cranked it and it start right up. Fookin Hondas haha
@@albertmargallo855 those years were pretty bulletproof. But I want to say the 04-10 era suffers in the starter department. To the point that there's even a bulletin on the accord to rotate the flywheel one bolt hole because somehow that improves the starter alignment
@@patharmon9760 the starters themselves are ok, it's when batteries get weak and ppl just crank away to get the car to start anyway that they get clapped up
@@BigDonkMongo there's a lot of truth to that
I am almost completely satisfied with my recently purchased red with black interior 1990 Honda Civic 4-door five-speed. A person could drive a used Honda such as I have and get cheaper transportation than the bus. It keeps me awake because it's like driving a butterfly or something delicate.

Goodness, but the 6 would go!
Bought a 2019 Ford Mustang Convertible EcoBoost premium back in 2019 with only 6k miles for $20k. 21mpg city / 32mpg hwy. Better looking car in my opinion and it was only 20k with all premium features. It’s been a great car 2 years after, no problems whatsoever. Thing looks beastly and has 310 HP with 4 cylinders.
The curb rash... 🤮

it will be a bucket real soon!

i APPROVE. I own a type r as well...Best affordable sports car. Mean in the track. The track is where it shines
😂😂everybody so salty that he backed a Honda
I have a 2017 accord coupe touring V6, my first honda and I love it. But my god do I want one of those type R's!!!
My daugther bought a 2 door special edition accord, V6 limited slip dif and probabbly the same 6 speed manual. Would spin tires even when changing to third gear. Great car sold it after several years, Got married and kid on the way, and no space for child seat. Bought a four door 4 cyl Accord. Remember when Super Bowl went to Tampa and she rented a Viper to show off
U finally come to your senses... Yes Mr. Scotty u know Honda is the best...
Blasphemy
They do make decent engines. Everything else is junk on them.
I'll give them 3rd place, toyota and lexus 1st and 2nd
Andrew Evanoff not true at all. My 2013 Accord has 105K mikes on then and nothing has broken or decreased function. Never needed anything but regular maintenance and a new battery

I'm 63 years old and have 6k miles on my Type R. It's a fantastic machine. No need to match revs when downshifting, she does that for you but it can be disabled.
I love Honda. Great cars
My lower back shot a pang of pain when I saw how low the Honda is to the ground.
The flares are there to get rid of high pressure in the wheel arch, not to cool the engine. That's why you have a radiator
Scotty: This car was designed for racing... you have to drive fast to see its useful potential.
Cop: please keep your hands on the wheel sir...
Value goes up when it was Scotty certified!
you know they made a good car when this guy says so, super cool to see youre so excited and love the type R
Dude never washes his car......prolly cuz he's too busy curbing his rims.
I can't help but notice that curb rash lol
Haha was the first thing I noticed
LMAO, I noticed that too
I was waiting for someone to say something about it 😹😹
It's because if the owner drives hard the tires on these cars wear out fast, I believe they only have a 8 to 10k lifespan thus more wear on the paint when changing out tires.
Years ago, late 80s/early 90s, Honda made the 3rd generation Prelude. Lots of horses in a 2.0L 4. Front wheel drive, but handles like crazy. Even made a 4 wheel steering version that was very cool. Certain aspects of this evokes those old Preludes for me.
In addition to a tornado-siren, I'm wondering if your neighborhood has a Scotty-siren.
When it goes off, make sure your kids are nowhere near the road -

I think you’re really excited about this one. Scotty Screamer.
Your buying a Civic Type R Scotty? BUYYYY IT!!!!!!! YESSSSSSSSSSS You will love it!... I gave a Ford Focus RS (a car that has 350hp) a run for their money on the highway today, if there wasn't traffic in the way I would have got him on my Top End. They didn't pull away from me though, I didn't get gapped.. they actually cut me off when I was trying to do a pull.
This video just answered so many questions in my life... Thank you..
Scotty: "Here's the reason, why not to buy the new civic"
Also Scotty:
LIFE4VW only reason not to buy them because they are expensive af
He said not to buy the civic with a 1.5 turbo the type r has the 2.0 turbo so no problem here
LMAOO I WAS WAITING FOR THIS 😂
He said not to buy the 1.5 Liter. This is 2 liters
The L15B7 (1.5) is a solid motor too. The oil dilution problems have been fixed since the 2018 models I believe.
Judging by the rims, I would say that owner needs assistance with the parking!
My thoughts exactly. Could you imagine spending 40k on a Civic just to treat it like a 2004 Kia?
_ ZAVALA it’s the first thing I look at when buying a car, I’ve had my 01 prelude for 15 years now and the rims still look new besides a few tiny rock chips,but they’re barely visible.

Thing is the build quality is so good it will never go wrong if you take care of it- Even Scotty is bowled over by this Civic 😊
T D AUTOMOTIVE this is one of the best FWD 4-cylinder turbo engines Honda has ever made though 😶
there is a difference between some plastic aerodynamics bodywork crap and plastic engine components that have no business being plastic like intake manifolds and water pumps.
I think Honda paid him to do this video
I wish Scotty would actually buy one. A type r is his style
Scotty Kilmer, the last person I expected to be giving justice to the visual design of the type R. Can't wait to own one someday.
As a Civic owner, I have a love/hate relationship with this car. I think it’s an engineering marvel. Right out of the factory it’s a blast. But that’s just it, factory, OEM, stock. This isn’t one of those cars you can modify and make your own. Like Scotty said, everything in this car has a purpose. If you change almost anything, you mess up it’s perfectly tuned formula. I own a 9th gen 2015 Civic si FB6. I love the thing because I can upgrade/tweak/tune it myself. Civic’s have always been this way, and have a strong aftermarket. For example, 90% of the Si you encounter on the road will be modified. It’s arguably the best part of owning one and truly the best way to experience owning a Civic IMO.
TLDR:
•Buy the Civic Type R if you prefer a complete, no hassle track/street weapon.
•Buy any other Si to create your own fully customizable track/street weapon.
(P.s. Any civic with a K20/k24 engine, either stock or K-swapped with good modification has the potential to blow the doors off a Type R. These engines are essentially the “people choice” for 4-Cylinder tuning engines and have more R&D from tuners than almost any other engine of their class.)
I'll drive a chevy
Rev up your Honda, cause it can handle it!
Scotty. If you love the civic, I honestly think you’ll love the accord sport 2.0t 6spd. It’s basically a civic type r that’s just slightly larger and more for daily driving.
