    This car is everything I could ask for and more, such a fun car drive. Nothing but thumbs up from people on the street. Only thing I can think of as a negative would be the speakers, they’re not the greatest but if you’re getting a type r you wanna listen to the car anyway, sounds way better than music!

    This car is a beast. Honda did a great job designing this car, truly one of a kind. I did not purchase it but I am researching it. The only problem is the dealers selling this car is hiking up the price way over MSRP because it is such an awesome vehicle.

    The Civic Type R is a great vehicle if you live a snow/ice-free climate or dont mind storing your car during winter. Its comfortable, relatively efficient, and a blast to drive in good conditions. Despite having winter tires, the Civics lack of awd traction and heated seats/steering wheel left it feeling too compromised for me. If youre looking for a hot hatch type vehicle to drive in winter conditions, look into a Focus RS, Golf R, or even an STI.

    "The Civic Type R has a wider hatch opening and more overall cargo volume. "
    Would Buy Ranked 2018 Ford Focus RS Hatchback better.
    "I live in Wisconsin and the Focus RS does a better job year round due to its AWD and amenities like heated seats and steering wheel. If I lived in a year-round warm climate Id probably pick the Type R. "

    Phenomenal as both a high performance treat and a daily driver. Best seats out there. Edgy when you want to play, but fine to run an errand in comfortably. Precise handling, braking, shifting and steering. Grip for weeks.Ride surprisingly good on ultra low profile tires. Decent mileage, low insurance rates. And reliable. Only real knock is a large turning radius. Price you pay for a roomy fwd car.

    Power Ranked 2017 Ford Focus RS better.
    "44 extra hp and 55 extra lb ft if torque. Both are fast."
    Front Seats Ranked 2017 Ford Focus RS worse.
    "The design and seating position is perfect. The alcantara holds you in place and spoils you at the same time. Seats in the RS are set too high, feel too hard,, and restrict you completely. "

    Power and handling are superb, especially on the back road twisties. The price of a round 40K, is pushing the margin of being a good value. It is missing some nice features like a sunroof and heated ... Read More
