Honda Civic Type R (FL5) - Best FWD Ever?

if only the engine didn't sound like a vacuum cleaner :) plus the price is little crazy...

CIVIC昔のEg6とかEK9の頃みたいに軽くなくて今のCIVIC重いからエンジン性能良くなっても曲がらないから、500万払うならEK9買った方が楽しめる。

lol this hands! awesome skills

It's great but after driving both the Veloster N was an even more fun FWD, sounds way better too.

That was very satisfying

Such a nice, clean and simple interior. Shame they are crazy expensive in AUS.

Why does the engine sound like it’s from gran turismo? The buzzing brrr sounds odd to me. Is that the engine sound from the speakers?

RIP that one bird

Stupid pricing killed this car here in belgium

Did the poor pidgeon make it? 😅

This is what other car channels should do in test-drive

Great video for one of the greatest cars of our time! Only I would prefer a manual handbrake.

The fake sounds are just bad. From the outside, you don't hear anything at all with the stock exhaust.

soo smooth omg

Please do Elantra N !!

The new type r is a absolute weapon and you are an amazing driver. Thanks for this most enjoyable back road blast

Great video and driving you can see that the Honda Civic Typer R fl5 is a demanding car for sports driving you have a good mastery of this car respect give more videos about the new type R fl5 LIKE and share greetings to the fan of the Honda brand.😊😊😊😊😊

So much effort to minimise inherent flaws of front wheel drive, while all they had to do, was to distribute the work between front and rear by sending a shaft to the rear, and placing differential and halfshafts in the back.

High praise indeed, to compare the on road experience to the intensity of Porsche GT cars!! ❤

Nice driving, tail happy!
+R setting i guess?

Wondering if FL5 wasn't build with auto-blip...🤔

Chạy 2 tay là quá kém!

Skills

Thanks for asking amateur opinion since It's not saying much. For a peasant like me a good car has a neutral chassis and is in every conceivable way efficient and practical. In these terms the new civic is an absolute masterclass and everyone who loves driving involvement combined with modern legislations should buy this car while they still can since with any lightweight manual driver focused family car they will not to be available in a year or two until eventually these cars will cease to exist due to 2027 emission standards and therefore heavy hybrids or evs will dominate. For ex. one of a kind new age rally bred Toyota GR Yaris was sold barely two years until they ran out of models and it will be the same case with this Civic type R. I suggest the Hyundai i20N is only a couple of percent faster in low speed corners due to it's lower weight but everywhere else this civic will excel. I love driving. Who doesn't want to be in control of time no matter swift it seems to move unless one starts tinkering with LSD at their ''free will''. This channel is what I actually want to see. It's like watching best motoring international but with a more concise content. To name a few I have driven front wd 1993 lancer , 1993 5th gen 2 door civic 9300rpm carburetor, mk2 golf diesel , mk1 berlingo :D, mk1 renault megane, mk1 fwd and 4wd mondeo, 1997 volvo v70 etc etc...and all manual on loose surfaces or snow. Any of these forementioned vehicles where infinitely more controllable on the relaxed end of rear end departure rate than my 2022 dacia duster, 2011 ford focus or some skoda superb that I have also enjoyed these moments of lift off oversteer. In comparison these new boxes with electromechanical actuators may very well be good cars but are lacking in agility, direct feedback and suspension compliance compared to these older and lighter cars with boring but predictable chassis roll.

Excellent driver on excellent car. And no unuseful and hypocrital greenwashing by EU bureaucracy!!!!

Motor ist full made of aluminum or?

Dude thinks he's in Forza 5😂

Nope, too heavy, try an R26.

amazing no talking just the car yes

👏👏👏👏

That's how fwd cars should be attuned when built

ugh I can't get over how HORRIBLE passionless gutless and artificial synthetic it sounds......................

I can’t get over the ugly electronic pumped in sound. Oh my god

How do you learn how to drive like this?

Crazy car+crazy driver=crazy driving

a blast to watch

@cornerz co .. which one is your favorite i30n or typer for this type of driving ?

dont forget The New Acura Integra Type S

This or GR yaris??

Understeers and does stupid fwd things as expected. Also seems like you’re trying to drive it like it’s a rwd car.

Awesome driving! The rear end steps out quite a lot surprisingly

The beeping at redline is kind of silly. The point of little motors is redlining the shit out of them. Amazing drive as usual!! You guys make every car seem amazing <33

Hello, Seat Leon Cupra :)

when I try to drive fast in corners I also have a lot of revs and a small gear. I was thinking that I should be able to have +1 gear up , I'd be faster but I'm just not confident. Maybe I am wrong and 2nd/3rd gear is good many times

Pleasure to watch you drive as always! 👍

Dude you are a maniac, mad props to you, I love the content!

Skvělý video!!

Brilliant drive.
i30N still has more theatre

been hoping to see you in this car at some point, great drive!
