Hahaha! I would seriously consider getting one of those! I have a FK8 and I like cars that handle and we’ve had two Honda odysseys, a 2000 and a 2012. The 2000 model actually is a really good foundation for a “performance minivan”. It was really nimble and when you removed the middle row seats, it did make a little bit of a difference. I actually at one point put on 2003 Mustang Mach 1 rims and it handled fairly well for a minivan.
It's a shame it will be so limited and dealer markups are already insane. Thanks Honda for building a sports car for the masses that nobody can find or afford.
Its really great up to 48k in my humble opinion. People who pay have a deeper connection I can't justify. I will trade in my Gx460 if i can get an integra type S close to 50k.
Normally I dont watch videos on vehicles I have no interest in...and I have no interest in the Type R. That being said...I never miss a straight pipes video. No matter the vehicle. Great job as always guys.

I got an allocation for it, but the dealer was asking 60k USD for it. I do not think a CTR is worth that much. 44k USD itself I feel is a high upper bound. This combined with the high interest rates. Makes more sense to buy a slightly used m2 comp all day long

@@TheDwightMamba I didn’t say I originally loved it. I said I’m into the previous generation type r. And this 11th generation has grown on me. At first it wasn’t great in my opinion.
@@TheDwightMamba you don’t want to be here for my reply because I make complete sense. This new type r is the 11th gen civic. The previous generation is the 10th gen civic. Does that make sense?

This 11th generation as in current generation is subdued and a blank canvas for the aftermarket community.
I wonder if you're aware of the Japanese four door Type R that was made at the same time as the British FN2? I've never read a bad word about its appearance.
Yuri - the more childish a car is designed, the more he'll like it Jakub - the cleaner/more pro a car is designed, the more he'll approve of the looks. I'm definitely with Jakub hehe
It's actually a great representation of people considering one of these. One of my classmates really likes the old one while I really like the new one (mainly the Teggy, but that's not out till 24).
Personal take: 10th Gen > 11th Gen but 10th Gen Type R < 11th Gen Type R. I don't know why but the 10th gen is just more interesting to me. If it were up to me, I would have 10th gen looks and engine with 11th gen interior. They are all still fantastic cars though, been driving my 10th gen for a while and it has been a blast!
I'm glad Honda has kept the petrol head spirit alive with the new Type R. Rest of the new line up is quite disappointing. Especially the new Accord. Used to be kind of a stock sleeper with that 2.0l Turbo. Not any more though...
Its exterior and interior are such a vast improvement over the previous gen. Love it! The spoiler also suits it and its brackets are fine and very similar to what Porsche uses on the 911, so really no surprise.
I want to save up and obtain one. It looks fantastic. The main gripe I had with the FK8 was the seats being a larger person. I hope that these seats are a massive improvement!
I work for Honda, and I LOVE the new FL5 Type R, but it is so limited, would be hard to get, and the Corolla, well, it is basic in its infotainment. I Chose the Elantra N DCT in Performance Blue to how amazing it. is. I am not sure if you guys know, but a simple $50 set of bushings solves the wheel hop and makes a world of difference. Also looks are subjective, and the EN looks (To me) better than the FK8. Also the DCT makes a world of difference and makes the EN very similar in performance to the Type R. Shame some of you call it ugly. It isn't.
THANK YOU for swapping back to 24fps. I am shocked that’s the only difference, I could have sworn the color profile or exposure or something was different on the 60fps videos. In any case, much prefer the “old” look.
Nice, if it's anything like the normal Civic it's a brilliant drive. I've had my 2.0 Civic Hybrid since the 12th of October and have done 6100km in it. Brilliant car.
You can turn it off and delete the front resonator and sounds a lot like the Acura type S. Annoying that it’s not like that from factory but easy enough to change
I love the TypeR but it would be hard to pass on a GR Corolla. They really great cars, both of them. And I WOULDNT be driving any of these cars in the winter.
It's the best feeling daily, once you swap it the type r damping module for type s. It's so good. It's a civic, that's also fast and super engaging. You only make concessions with luxury features but that's what the Integra is for.

Do you guys do any type of racing? What types? I am curious because I like your content and that probably influences your content. I have been sim racing and I am now hoping to get in to racing in some way.
I've had a deposit on this Type R since 2021 in Canada and still haven't been able to get one. The Honda dealer recently told me that there is extremely limited quantities in Canada. Only 95 units will be allocated here in 2023. Pretty sad as they could easily sell much much more than that immediately. Not sure if it's because of shortages on parts or the fact that they want it to be a very rare and exclusive car. Also, why is no one talking about the new parking sensors on Canadian models? And has blind spot indicators along with all of the other safety tech. I realize it's a Type R but these make it an even better daily driver.
@@noface1783 Nope. The dealer got 1 and gave everyone else their money back. They said they have no idea when more could come so no one else can get a car. Several months later I saw another one pulling off of the delivery truck. I’m sure that one was already sold before it arrived. I’ve only seen two on the roads in Vancouver Canada. They are extremely rare. Now I’m also beginning to look at the Integra Type S. it seems like basically the same package. But also rare at the moment.
I'm so over dealerships, and especially Honda at this point. Wife and I owned an S2000 for 12 years and now have a Focus RS. We contact the Honda dealer wanting to test drive the Civic Si and they book us for a time slot a week later. We show up and they immediately pull some crap about having to sign on the dotted line before we get a test drive. We objected asking why and were told "because this is such a special car". We laughed explaining to them what was parked outside and how we've been test driving cars double the money (or more) with no issues from higher end brands. They were insistent and we walked away without even sitting in the stupid thing. All of this is after my dad had gone to the dealer when the Civic Type R was new to the US trying to test drive one and they told him the same malarky even though he had a more expensive vehicle than the CTR. So obviously a recurring theme. I'm not even close to young and I don't have an issue with affording these machines. I could understand Ferrari or McLaren asking some very pointed questions about my finances before I got a test drive, but a $30k or $45k Honda? Give me a break. Bubba up yonder has a meth, tobacco, and energy drink habit and rolls home in a $75k truck but Lord help us if we let a responsible middle aged couple drive a frickin Civic.
I've got my 2025 Championship White allocation in Ottawa! I've a modded 02 ep3 to CTR+ level (k24a2 and JRSC) and looking forward to having both in my garage to enjoy and admire.
Both of their 2023 and 2024 allocations were already spoken for. In Canada, dealers are getting a very limited quantity, some saying only 1 unit per model year.
Are dealeRs giving a build # or other info to confirm? I paid a deposit, but my dealerR didn't know what model year they would Receive their allocation. Could be 2024 or 2025. I assume too small of sales volume to get on initial 2023 release.
Mine is a sales contract and the sales manager confirmed my allocation with Honda Canada. Since my dealership knew for a fact that they were getting an allocation for each model year from Honda Canada, they were able to request/confirm mine as being Champion White. Obviously, I won't know the build number or serial info for sometime yet.
I bought an Elantra N (performance blue, 6MT). In no universe is the Type R worth $13,000 Canadian dollars (plus tax!) more IMO. If the difference was more like 7 grand then sure. Car critics love to call it ugly, but literally everyone who sees it in person loves it. I've had half my building randomly approach me to compliment me on the car (especially the colour) at this point lol. Never mind the fact that dealers already sold out of their allocations for the next 3 years on the Type R before the review embargo even lifted...same deal with the Corolla, so does it really matter if either car is worth the price over an EN when the EN is the only one of the 3 you can realistically purchase?
I would love to buy this car, but dealers here in the US are tagging on an additional 25K-30K on top of MSRP. At 43K it is totally worth it and prices nicely against the Golf R, Audi S3 and (was WRX STI) but at 70K it's just not worth it when you can get an RS3 or BMW M340, or CLA45 for that kind of money.
I don't like the back, but the front is real nice. Tough call between this and GR Corolla, I don't care about the current Golf or the N. GR Yaris still sits at the top for desirable current hot hatchos.
Elantra N all day long no markups at all here in upstate ny if u live here!! For 35k with a dtc trans it’s a no brainer instead of these for 60k 10 k mark up just effin ridiculous
Big improvement in the looks department over previous model, but for that money I’d rather sit in the GR Corolla Circuit Edition which happens that my name is on the waiting list for 😄
Checked all the dealerships around me, all of them are asking for $10k markup plus those stupid dealership accessories package smh. And the GR Corolla also has a $10k markup, but even you are willing to pay, there’s still a wait list for the GR.
that driving style is an actual thing, it's not just 'over driving'. It's most common/easiest on go karts as it does give you more grip around corners, you are wearing out the tyres more tho. What happens is you are digging the edges of the tyre into the road more when you turn, due to the linkages the wheel gains additional angle of camber. Doesn't work as well in our drive by wire steering modern cars, but in older cars (and F1) it really works.
Why would an adult be embarrassed in any car? I never understood this notion. As an owner of multiple vehicles I always have found this odd. People definitely treat me differently in my 25 year old winter beater Toyota vs my brand new vehicle. I actually prefer driving old beat up cars and find it hilarious when people make comments like "buy a new car white trash" while I have multiple vehicles and a large bank account, haha. Women in their huge junk SUV's mostly.

Elantra N DCT for sure. At the Type R price point you mine as well spend a little extra for a scatpack🔥🔥🔥
The duo is back!
I'm so over dealerships, and especially Honda at this point. Wife and I owned an S2000 for 12 years and now have a Focus RS. We contact the Honda dealer wanting to test drive the Civic Si and they book us for a time slot a week later. We show up and they immediately pull some crap about having to sign on the dotted line before we get a test drive. We objected asking why and were told "because this is such a special car". We laughed explaining to them what was parked outside and how we've been test driving cars double the money (or more) with no issues from higher end brands. They were insistent and we walked away without even sitting in the stupid thing.
All of this is after my dad had gone to the dealer when the Civic Type R was new to the US trying to test drive one and they told him the same malarky even though he had a more expensive vehicle than the CTR. So obviously a recurring theme.
I'm not even close to young and I don't have an issue with affording these machines. I could understand Ferrari or McLaren asking some very pointed questions about my finances before I got a test drive, but a $30k or $45k Honda? Give me a break. Bubba up yonder has a meth, tobacco, and energy drink habit and rolls home in a $75k truck but Lord help us if we let a responsible middle aged couple drive a frickin Civic.
Love the vid as always, hope if u guys upload in 4k 👍🏻❤️
The clean design should allow for some nice body kits
15:37 - No gloss black... No, gloss, black. Thank you Honda.
I've got my 2025 Championship White allocation in Ottawa! I've a modded 02 ep3 to CTR+ level (k24a2 and JRSC) and looking forward to having both in my garage to enjoy and admire.
Why 2025?
I’m getting a 2030 soon. 😂
Both of their 2023 and 2024 allocations were already spoken for. In Canada, dealers are getting a very limited quantity, some saying only 1 unit per model year.
Are dealeRs giving a build # or other info to confirm? I paid a deposit, but my dealerR didn't know what model year they would Receive their allocation. Could be 2024 or 2025. I assume too small of sales volume to get on initial 2023 release.
Mine is a sales contract and the sales manager confirmed my allocation with Honda Canada. Since my dealership knew for a fact that they were getting an allocation for each model year from Honda Canada, they were able to request/confirm mine as being Champion White. Obviously, I won't know the build number or serial info for sometime yet.
I bought an Elantra N (performance blue, 6MT). In no universe is the Type R worth $13,000 Canadian dollars (plus tax!) more IMO. If the difference was more like 7 grand then sure. Car critics love to call it ugly, but literally everyone who sees it in person loves it. I've had half my building randomly approach me to compliment me on the car (especially the colour) at this point lol. Never mind the fact that dealers already sold out of their allocations for the next 3 years on the Type R before the review embargo even lifted...same deal with the Corolla, so does it really matter if either car is worth the price over an EN when the EN is the only one of the 3 you can realistically purchase?
same boat as you. only compliments on the car and the color. it sounds better than the Type R also as a bonus.
I really dig the newer toned down look
I sat on a Sonic Gray pearl one yesterday. I fell in love with it.
I would love to buy this car, but dealers here in the US are tagging on an additional 25K-30K on top of MSRP. At 43K it is totally worth it and prices nicely against the Golf R, Audi S3 and (was WRX STI) but at 70K it's just not worth it when you can get an RS3 or BMW M340, or CLA45 for that kind of money.
Us car market is dumb
Finally a Type R that doesn’t look like a ricer kid designed it. Brings back memories of the legendary FD2 R😍
I just love this car
Can’t wait to have one
The FL5 Type R has the lofty looks. Such a beauty!
This is a sweet car but I think the dealers might ruin it. I can’t imagine sales will be great when most dealers are asking $60k for them.
yes it is😃
I don't like the back, but the front is real nice. Tough call between this and GR Corolla, I don't care about the current Golf or the N. GR Yaris still sits at the top for desirable current hot hatchos.
It's hard to care about the Type R, as cool as it is... No way I'm going to be able to get one unless I pay tens of thousands over sticker.
Elantra N all day long no markups at all here in upstate ny if u live here!! For 35k with a dtc trans it’s a no brainer instead of these for 60k 10 k mark up just effin ridiculous
Big improvement in the looks department over previous model, but for that money I’d rather sit in the GR Corolla Circuit Edition which happens that my name is on the waiting list for 😄
The Elantra N axle tramp doesn’t mean the LSD isn’t working, it’s just got soft engine bushes. You can fix it with a lower torque mount bush for £30
I just realized you guys uploaded the new Type R video review at the same time as Doug uploading his one about the new Type R.
there's usually an embargo from the manufacturer... they tell them when they can upload hence why a half dozen vids popped up at 9am est..
Checked all the dealerships around me, all of them are asking for $10k markup plus those stupid dealership accessories package smh. And the GR Corolla also has a $10k markup, but even you are willing to pay, there’s still a wait list for the GR.
W for the 30 fps format. great video
Edit: apparently it's 24 fps, because 30 is trash 😂
that driving style is an actual thing, it's not just 'over driving'. It's most common/easiest on go karts as it does give you more grip around corners, you are wearing out the tyres more tho. What happens is you are digging the edges of the tyre into the road more when you turn, due to the linkages the wheel gains additional angle of camber. Doesn't work as well in our drive by wire steering modern cars, but in older cars (and F1) it really works.
The embargo has dropped! 👍🔥
Last body style civic / accord was king.
I really prefer the look of the last gen, this one looks like a regular Civic with a bolted on wing.
Last gen one looked like a RICER BoyRacers wet dream. This one is elegant and functional. With real vents.
This is so much better looking than prior version.
Wow a type R an adult wouldn't be embarrassed in. Honda you have my attention.
Why would an adult be embarrassed in any car? I never understood this notion. As an owner of multiple vehicles I always have found this odd. People definitely treat me differently in my 25 year old winter beater Toyota vs my brand new vehicle.
I actually prefer driving old beat up cars and find it hilarious when people make comments like "buy a new car white trash" while I have multiple vehicles and a large bank account, haha. Women in their huge junk SUV's mostly.
Other than the wing, I absolutely love the way this thing looks
Is it just me or is the audio off from 2:37... Correction, only when I'm viewing it on my TV not my mobile device 🤷🏻♂️
Still miss 60fps. Smooth as hell
The car is clean as hell 👌
#bringbacktheboxtest
Huge Improvements and Huge Markups $$$$$$$$
How come a 3 cylinder GR Corolla somehow sounds better than this 4 cylinder Type R? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Firing order and pattern
3-cylinders have a different sound profile than a 4-cylinder. In general 3 sounds better than 4
Did you guys drive through Brampton yesterday afternoon? I feel like I saw this car but wasn't sure what it was until I saw the videos late night!
Ah man, I already watched Doug's Type R video first. He beat you by a few minutes lol.
Edit: I like your review better 😘
1:49 The expression on Jakub's face was terrifying
why is no one else talking about it LOL. at first i thought he was doing it on purpose
They’ve made it slower and more “mature”. Not sure about that 🧐
