I'm really into this kind of vlog type episodes, especially that it brings closer New Zealand's car culture which isn't a familiar thing on YT.

[@KiwiCarLife]

I'll try do it more then

[@connorsmith4067]

I agree these types of videos are cool

[@Pixels1920]

Really excited to see the cl1 vid coming out soon! Keep up the great work

[@KiwiCarLife]

Oooh yeah gonna be good

[@itsalexanderbotha1504]

Was great fun taking the jazz out on track with some faster cars. Surprised how well it kept up considering power and my balls haha. Definitely need to do it again sometime!

[@KiwiCarLife]

Oh yeah absolutely man. Manfeild in January will be great

What a car! I've said it once and I'll say it again, I would love to own this car. Great vid! Keep up the great work.

[@KiwiCarLife]

Well it's for sale if you want it haha

[@bubbles4136]

@@KiwiCarLife I'd love to mate. But I'm in no position to be buying another car at the moment. If I had the spare money laying around, 100%. Perhaps a future investment at some point, we'll see. Thanks for the info though, I'll keep that in mind for future, if it's still available lol. Loving the content again, keep up the great work. Can't wait to see the next vid with that glorious VTEC sound.

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yes

[@titanace3981]

thats love

[@KiwiCarLife]

Ooh yes

[@MikeStewardII]

The Accord Euro R really needs a set of wheel spacers. It’s a cheap mod but makes the car look great!

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yeah agree

[@RonyIsaPony]

hahah i like the gran turismo soundtrack

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yesss

[@accordarchives9673]

By the way, how did you attach the spoiler? Drilling? Or was it done by the panel place?

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yeah drilled holes and bolted it on

[@cartertwowheels3358]

Ill be doing a couple thousand kms in a sight unseen accord soon. I have a lot of faith in my Hondas 👌 Do you still have your accords? Would be great to see em in wellington.

[@KiwiCarLife]

Awesome man you’ll love it! Nah I’ve got my manual 130i now. Same same but more features, power and rwd

[@cartertwowheels3358]

@@KiwiCarLife should we be expecting some drifting updates from you in the future haha???

[@gabordeak4287]

Hey! What kind of watch are your wearing in this video? Thx

[@KiwiCarLife]

Casio ediface

[@sevenine_9824]

quicker pulls in 1-3 than your accord type s you had? looked like it?

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yeahhh definitely a bit quicker

[@bonetoad]

I hope he did a video of your euro R for his tiktok!

[@KiwiCarLife]

Haha nah he didn't sadly. Was too late in the evening

[@Caleb__main]

Looks so fun. How much was the gas bill?

[@KiwiCarLife]

About $130 per fill. Filled up 3 times so like $400 ish

[@benjaminwingchun9665]

@@KiwiCarLife how many litres you throw in on the fill ups?, roughly

[@KiwiCarLife]

@@benjaminwingchun9665 55L or so? Fuel is like $2.50 a L for 95

[@benjaminwingchun9665]

@@KiwiCarLife is it about the same as you old cl9? You're not doing too bad with those numbers, its only a bit worse than my 2.0L TDI.

[@rossdixon5050]

I see you put this on FB market place Liam, had enough of it?

[@KiwiCarLife]

More just seeing if I'll get any decent offers. Eyeing up some new resto projects

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yesss

[@zm5431]

We want longer videos 🙏

[@KiwiCarLife]

9 mins is already pretty long? I think you're in the minority. 6-8 mins is good imo. That's what I aim for

[@jurassicgarage5383]

Damn. You're making me want a CL7R but I already have a pair of CH1 TypeRs and they're enough of a headache 😂 How does the 7 compare to the CL1s you drove? The CH1 and CL1 are supposedly very close relatives

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yeah CL1 and CH1 will drive the same. Cl7 is definitely newer and nicer, but the cl1 has more torque which makes it easier to drive

[@B33ond]

I want to get a CL7 now.

[@KiwiCarLife]

Purchase

[@B33ond]

Can you buy a Nissan 450gt Fuga for your next car. Maybe compare to a Toyota crown 186

[@chinna9056]

What are you talking about son😂 that’s a Honda it can handle it and give you good gas mileage on top of it to plus it will be very reliable on top of it. Don’t underestimate Honda and Toyota.😅

[@KiwiCarLife]

Have you seen my previous videos and the history on this car?

[@markmcgrath9098]

What?! You can drive 2,200km in NZ? 🤯 😂👍

[@KiwiCarLife]

Yeah that's what I did total over the 4 days

[@Birmingham_racing]

Didn't know you watch dmo haha

[@KiwiCarLife]

Nah I don't really I just know of him

[@KavinFan0803]

mfw the manual altezza finally appears on this channel, and it ends up being one with overdone camber and a broken tranmission

[@KiwiCarLife]

Nah it was actually absolutely mint. Just set up to part at car meets, not blast down a back road.

[@edwincharlery2880]

@@KiwiCarLife I cannot wait for this review. but on or off track the driving experience is way better with the euro r than the rs200, and its especially noticeable on WOT under heavy load, you must really be experienced with the rs200 to drive it properly but it in my opinion because of the rwd it gives more of a thrill when doing pulls and the lsd allows for seamless drifting for an NA. Thats just my opinion.

[@jezzalowe5121]

put it up against toyota sportivo camry

[@KiwiCarLife]

Will so at some point

[@keeshectors8261]
