I absolutely loved the first time I drove CTR on a perfect sunny Saturday. The second one was in winter in Canada - no snow on road but gravel/ rocks. I didn’t like it and found it underwhelming. It felt like a dialed up Fiesta ST. Not that you can’t drive it in rain/snow but it leaves out half of its performance. Honda has done magic with this car but anything less than perfect weather it’s asking for AWD.

[@cduncan5690]

I applaud Honda for not adding any of the silly crack and pop gimmics in this car. Those stuff are fun for 30 seconds then they sour. They are about as much fun as suffering from PE. Not that I would know lol

[@MrGreatnessisme]

You can get that 'burble' tune with Hondata, however a lot of tuners recommend against it since it'll eventually cause engine issues. Thus why I steered far away from it when I got my R tuned.

[@gravityhammer25]

@@MrGreatnessisme There is really no need for a tune if you want the occasional pop n crackle. I have a Milltek Non Resonated exhaust on my Type R and I get pops and crackles on stock tune.... Not as much as a burble tune but it's fun. The reason why is because Milltek is a true catback exhaust and replaces the front pipe. Some aftermarket exhausts are actually not replacing the front pipe so they are not true catbacks and don't actually open the exhaust up. Also other catbacks have resonators that kill the sound.

[@npaul4171]

With the lack of competitors to the FK8, I get why so many compare it with the N, but they really aren't comparable cars IMO beyond both having a highly-engaging (manual) experience and both being completely appropriate in stock form for amateur track usage. I own a N and I've driven the FK8 CTR on numerous occasions, although not the 2020. The pre-2020 FK8 is a step above the N across the board in terms of performance (and price), and the 2020 is taking that a step further. The N was not designed with the intent to compete with the CTR and establishes itself as an intermediate between Si and CTR skewing slightly in the direction of the CTR. I do agree that the sounds of the N are a lot of fun and add to the experience, whereas with the CTR something like the Remus exhaust is necessary to enable that level of audible fun (although obviously exhaust is hugely subjective.)

The CTR is a great all arounder but I couldn't get past the ricer boy wing/styling and the Miata cures all my desires for something fun to drive while the Maxi gives me practicality for grocery store/kid runs.

They do make a "limited" type version like you said - only available in the Euro market. I am the person you exactly described. I know the wing is functional but it's a bit too much for me. I have an 10th gen Si and I love it but it's about the edge of how aggressive I want my car to look. I want the extra power and performance though. I'm a 40 y/o dad so yeah. From what I hear that model has more sound deadening material as well as leather and lower profile spoiler. Perfect combo for me.

[@chiuuuuuuuuuu]

I drive a wrx and this type r is my dream car. Somehow I feel like I'm cheating on my wrx..

[@WarriorsPhoto]

As a Subaru fan as well. Go ahead and cheat. 😉

[@davecech4741]

I had an STi (head gasket blew up) and then a base WRX after that through 2008 to 2019, before moving on to the Type R. If you are in a reasonable position to do it, go get a Type R. You will love it, and I promise you won't miss having AWD unless you live somewhere where it snows all winter. The Type R is easier to live with (quieter, better cabin, etc.) and also more much rewarding to drive. Everything related to driver involvement (steering feel, braking, shifting, throttle response, instrumentation, the seats...) is a notch up from a WRX family car. One caveat on the Type R. I splurged and put 18 inch forged wheels on my car after burning through the first set of tires after 9000 miles. The stock wheels are heavy and there are precious few (and expensive!) tire options go with them. The 18 wheels mellowed out the ride, with noticeably better acceleration off the line, but also introduced a little bit of torque steer (definitely a worthwhile trade-off overall). That said, it seems that a brand new WRX is coming, so maybe you wait and see what Subaru (finally) brings to the table and then decide!

[@AM-wt8qi]

Yes must be appealing to scuby owners for stand out design and great driving as well as practicality . Something different from German designs but feel they have reached a peak here of engineering apart from going silly power and a few tweeks like cooling for track days. Only thing missing is AWD which could be handy in draggies and winter weather

[@k20a2toofast4u]

If a type r is your "dream car" you're cheating your dreams lol. You must have a bone stock wrx bc a FBO E60 wrx tuned by a reputable tuner is dumb quick.

'I wanted Blind Spot, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert like our Outback. I actually keep my hands on the steering wheel (leather, not that fuzzy thing), so I don't need Lane Keeping Assist. Forward Collision is important, but I had to give that up for the 2019 car. Love Matts' positive energy!

[@1wasinAlpha]

If I get a type-r, the 1st thing I'm gonna change is get rid of those wheels and put smallest wheel that clears the breaks without any issue and buy a bit wider tires with taller side wall. I just hate tires that have no sidewall

[@boguszn1978]

It’s a very, very satisfying car to drive. I had big dilemma CTR or Bullitt some 2 years back. CTR is a better car: steering, cornering incl. rotation, gear ratios, brakes and everyday practicality. But for some unknown reason Bullitt delivers more trill and smile. Maybe V8 and RWD? What was your feeling @matt Moran motoring? Why better sports car is not always better drivers car? I would like to have those two instead of base 911.

[@MrGreatnessisme]

I was thinking of eventually using my R as a winter beater and the Bullitt or a GT as a summer car. If I didn't have to haul a lot of stuff for work and if it didn't snow I would daily drive the GT/Bullitt. At that price point, nothing is more fun than the GT/Bullitt. The R is fun too but I never get to track it or go through some twisty roads so it seems a bit wasted.

[@Roudox]

Love it. Good reviews!!!

[@smaller_cathedrals]

I don't get the Veloster comparison at all. Apart from the sound (which is subjective), the Type R beats the Veloster in every category. Which it should, because it is a different kind of car, in a different price band. So why the comparing?

[@hevpops]

I’m looking for a new car and was looking considering between the Sti and the Type R. I have driven the Sti and I love how it feels when you drive the car and how raw it is when it comes to the mechanical feel of the driving experience. Hearing you say how the steering might be better than the Sti puts the Type R as the first option now as this was the main feel I was concern about but I think you have covered all the points I was looking for for me to go for a Type R hands down!!!!

[@JEtienneMusic]

Literally am wrestling between those 2 cars as well. Mainly STI because I had an Evo X so I'm used to turbo charged 4 bangers with AWD. But something about the new Mustangs are slightly appealing as well and I would like to at least test drive an Ecoboost. But the main competition is STI and Type-R for me. I'd be curious to follow up with you next year and see which one you end up getting!

[@waikitfung3705]

I got the 2019 type r over sti. It is a fun drive and steering wheel feels like driving go kart that heavy.

[@hevpops]

Joseph Harrison Most likely I am going to get the Type R. Overall I feel it’s a better car to daily drive and also more reliable. Plus that fact that there isn’t many people that owns oneis cool. If I had the money I would get both, the Sti for winter and Type R for summer. But yea man I will let you know when I cop one

[@j4559]

Joseph Harrison i come from an STi, have a PP Mustang 5.0 now (modified both). the ecoboost is trash, dont waste your time. compared to the STi, the 5.0 feels terrific driving slow, but is much sloppier/larger feeling driving at the limit. i'd imagine the type r is much more composed than both, similar feeling to the evo but significantly lighter. i plan on trading the 5.0 PP for one once my money situation is right. hope this helps 👍

[@Mk5forLife]

Well,i have a 2006 sti and a 19 Type R, my civic type R when stock was gapping my sti (stage 2)- the civic is much better in every aspect (unless u need an awd dialy driver cause the area where u live) The civic will hold his value,cheaper service than subaru,cheaper parts,much better on MPG (34mpg if u can behave) You can't judge this civic till u get behind the wheel and see what the hype is all about.

Great resale... Until your steering wheel looks like sweaty roadkill.

Source? I’ve had an Accord Sport since 2018 and I white knuckle grip it all the time and it still looks like new.

I have no idea how to keep alcantara looking good. It's gorgeous when new, but oils from the hands may mess it up. I don't have a 2020, but I tried cleaning a small spot of the alcantara on my arm rest and it was a near disaster. I have the Mugen Steering Wheel. Anyone with a 2020 looking to get a leather wheel I would recommend to check out the Mugen. OEM leather wheel is meh.... not bad but not great either.

With it's crazy styling and the fact that knee problems make manual transmissions hard for me (at least with daily drivers), I have no interest in owning a type r. But the performance is so good that when I see somebody else driving one, I get jealous.

[@craigerickson5975]

Matt, how does the R compare to your Bullitt?

[@Igeeckow]

i need that car

[@pistolpete6321]

Fantastic review Matt, love this car except for rear spoiler, too big!

[@gene978]

Does the Type R come with 2 different types of shift handles? I answered my own question. The dealer sells a red leather wrapped shift knob might be great for the hotter months. I bet their are a ton of aftermarket ones as well.

[@JamieToddBand]

The knob gets impossibly hot. I just ordered foam microphone covers (assorted colors including red), to slip over on hot days.

How do you compare this to a Subaru Wrx sti

[@karmahunden]

Can wait until they start selling the FL5... so that i can buy an FK8 without the inflated price...

[@armins.601]
