  • You've heard that the Honda Civic Type R is a beast by any standard and especially impressive for a front-wheel-drive car. This video explains how one area of its suspension, in particular, is responsible for making the CTR so much fun to drive.
    Come hang out in Chris Rosales' garage for a few minutes and get some great insights on one of the coolest cars on sale right now.

    These technical deep dives are great. It's got me wanting to go learn about my own car's suspension geometry too!

    Good vid
    The R is a modern legend - out of the box its almost unbelievable what it can do in high speed sweepers - the brakes - the top end - then.....you modify it and go next level lol
    Car never gets old - the harder you drive it, the more it reminds you how good it really is.

    i knew the fk8 had awesome suspension design and geometry ... but i didn't truly appreciate it until i broke a strut bolt and had to disassemble the entire front left assembly to replace the strut top 😂 it is insanely over engineered and difficult to take apart/assemble but it does its job damn well..

    • @berlinmae07

    It's a cool car but it's completely unattainable for anyone who takes their personal finances seriously. Also if I have $45k sitting around to buy a used performance car, it ain't gonna be spent on a Honda Civic. Most people who can afford this car are older and wouldn't be caught dead taking a client out to lunch or pulling up to the office in something like this.

      You are right. It takes a deep passion and understanding for someone to spent the money on buying the Type R. A person that knows the history of Honda Red Badge, Vtec, their reputation in the track, and also a real man because its a 3 pedal. Nevertheless, its a good car that are a master at FWD. Some bought it for passion that they have for Type R, some bought it because of the looks, some bought it because its a track ready car, some bought it for collection, some bought it bcoz they have too much money to spent, reliability benefits aside, well conti cars are problematic. There are too many reasons to say, but the Type R is never a wrong choice in its class.
