savagegeese discuss the Civic Type R after owning the vehicle for over a year. Its an interesting video from the perspective of both an automotive journalist and long term owner.

    My dad owns an FK8 Type R, and so I have quite a bit experience being in it, and I just really can’t get over how much they calmed down the styling. The old Type R was just ridiculous looking, which was awesome, the new Type R looks like a Civic with a bolted on wing.

      Isn’t that almost every Type R every before FK8 and the weird hatch in the 2010s. The FG chassis literally was a body kit over a regular civic.

      I’m the opposite. Don’t mind the new one but wouldn’t swap out my fk8.
