I went on a track day not long back drove an r8 and and a lamborghini g spyder which are awesome got back in my type r afterwards an its still felt great to drive. Its big fun for reasonable money.
C'mon ppl don't bring Renault or Peugeot or either Citroën into these videos, we're talking Japanese engineering, the kind that think a project through before actually producing the cars, Renaults last 3 years and die, i've had one, know other people who also had it and yeah, even the damn speedometer stops working! garbage! real garbage...
Firstly double wishbone suspension is actually overkill on the rear for a front wheel drive car and doesnt really add anything worthwhile whilst also being more expensive.
@summ0004 May be an overkill but a good overkill. i had the EP3 02plate. the back wheel would often lift in a corner thus demonstrating it was cornering at its limit. The new single piece will not let the wheel lift limiting the steering and also making the car heavier. A bad move for a car of this nature.
Dude...how in the name of earth would a car know if there's actually ice on road with only tires touching the road....The car just feels that outside temperature is 0 or less & informs you that there's a possibility that u could meet ice on the street....
Gruntmasta has a correct argument&this sign might be shown for a reason like that but i test drove the type-s & this sign appeared with no rain or snow on the street&the dude from the company told me that the car is informing me that the car is informing me that the temp outside is below 0 & there might be a possibility that there's ice on the street.....
Sounds just like a Ferrari F430...but without the urgency. But I think this is going to be my next car. I didnt like it at first, but I saw one last weekend in red with black front splitter and rear diffuser. Looked bloody owesome.
The strong point of the type R is its engine, very light and revy. Major weak points: the brakes (easy in the red) and the steering, not communicative enough. I have a megane R26R.. another world regarding, chassis..suspension, steering.
ur retarded the braking and suspension are killer just the rail system is retarded. the extra frame gard just fucks owners over when it comes down to a fender bender
@wallaboks you talk shit honda ha ve the best steering,i have a civic ek4 from 2001 and the steering is awsome better that some new cars that i've tested(seat leon cupra,audi s3,golf gti...) but the type r fn2 have electrical steering that is better than normal steering sometimes too better cause you just move a litle bit and the wheels move
@wallaboks the only thing that your megane is better is in power cause is got a turbo,comfort and price the rest is just worst that type r...don't need to reply back cause i that is true
@wallaboks The problem with it, is that it isnt a real type r its shite go buy an ep3 or an ek9 thats a real type r. I also agree an r26r would destroy an fn2.
I like civics because they are economically cheap, but i hate people classifying the type R as "RACING PERFORMANCE CARS" PEOPLE REALIZE THAT HONDA TYPE R IS INTERIOR FANCY AND REAL PERFORMANCE CARS WILL KILL IT IN ANY RACE.
Just to point out - there are different types of performance cars - the CIVIC Type R makes a great auto X car right out of the box (with some new tires).
This 4 cyl Honda is a absolute piece of jewelery. It is like half a V8 Ferrari..same revs and alsmost same sound (compare with the sound of my F430 vdo).The engine is so light under the foot has no little inertia that you touch the limiter permanently. The Vtec is the soul of all Type R's for little money.
The new civic does look to be THE best interior of any car ive seen, and this is including porsches/ferraris/astons..
The fact the old civic did 0-60 in 6.9, and the new does it in 6.5, plus the old one had 197bhp,(apart from the later 201bhp upgraded version), the new one has 200bhp!
There is no competition. If you want to rev the tits off a car, get an mg, if you want a quality build, smooth ride, get a Honda or VW. (and no i dont have a type R-i have an Audi)
for those who keep putting negative ratings on comments ppl saying old type R is faster than new type R
LOOK AT TOPGEAR'S TEST OF BOTH CIVIC TYPE-R ON TRACK! the new civic type-R has worse handling because of the downgrade on rear suspension to save money and the weight has increased
using the car on small roads or track, the feeling is to drive " with the front wheels only " , the back wheels are glued to the road...it is not very fun. the fun thing is the engine noise and revs, very similar in the tone to the ferrari's V8 sound type.
@p753159 the ep3 is not better,listen what jeremy says "is not even faster but it has more fun",the only thing that change booth cars is the weitgh and power,the fn2 chassis is more rigid so better but the ep3 is more fun cause you can make waht you want like the old dc2,eg6 or ek9,ek4 ,the fn2 is better than the ep3 but due to the fucking european laws it only had 1hp but you can see than with more 100kg with only 1hp more the ep3 can't beat the fn2 on the straigth line...
@p753159 if you ask me what model i choose i'll say the ep3 with the fn2 engine and interior, i love the interior of the fn2 and the seats damm are perfect...they still booth type r nad booth Honda

For a couple of reasons really.
Firstly double wishbone suspension is actually overkill on the rear for a front wheel drive car and doesnt really add anything worthwhile whilst also being more expensive.
Secondly it eats up boot space.
