  • My last drive in my 2022 Honda Civic Si on my way to pick up my 2023 Honda Civic Type R! It went straight to Craft Detailing at G42 for a Paint Correction, PPF, and Ceramic Coating (Opticoat Pro +). Huge thanks to McGovern Honda for making this process painless and easy.

    She really is a thing of beauty.Congrats and good luck with the R. Until you got the Si, I did not used to be a Honda fan even though I know they are generally good cars. But man they have really stepped it up and killed it with the styling and clearly the performance as well. I've now included the si in my car search rather then newer model Audi and I'm so excited to find one.

      Recently picked up my si a few weeks ago and Fs say the si is such a blast to drive. Me personally I’d pick the si over the Audi. Cheaper to run and maintain as well as save money on the purchase for a way more reliable car. Also the new interior is so nice for a Honda I honestly wouldn’t care for the Audis interior

Cost of ownership and service etc is less than ideal. Also funny u mention the interior cus that is one of the BIG things for me that this new si /Honda in general has done to really sway me. It just looks so much more sophisticated now and almost German like. I love it.

      @@AC-Ninja besides the stupid dealer markups. There’s not much to worry about/ lookout for. Although they are going very fast so if your able to get ur name on a list I’d do it asap if u are considering. Where I got mine from in MI it was the only one they had/ we’re getting for a few months. Besides that I’ve had no issues at all although it’s still new but man I honestly love the car. Obviously in no place to tell u how to spend your money but if u already have an Audi u love and enjoy try the si out. Promise it won’t let u down.

      Only let down with the Civic is the awful CVT. I know, just get the manual right? But still what Honda is doing now with their lineup is a bit disturbing. Killing the Accord with tiny, underpowered engines and again CVT's. Completely underpowered new CRV where they finally got the chassis and steering sorted out. Awful guinea pig of a car that is the HRV. Killing the Jazz or Fit depending where you are... Thank God they're keeping the 3.5 V6 v-tec in their biggest models but you can't really have much fun driving them.

    Coming from a Stage 2 Golf R, your SI videos (along with The Topher) inspired me to discover that power isn’t everything to enjoy a drive. This lead me to test a 2008 MX5 in July - my first time ever - and I’m now the proud owner of a Polymetal Grey Club (GS-P in Canada) with BBR package, which I took delivery of last Saturday with 3kms.

    Have you thought about putting rainx or getting the windshield coated so water just beads right off? It helps a lot when going over 40 mph that you don’t need your wipers at all. Saves wipers and the windscreen from getting scratched. Makes a huge difference in the clarity during inclement weather!

    congrats on the Type R I watched your vids prior to trading in my 10th gen accord to the 11th gen Si. I really love this car over the R cause of the sunroof and the fuel economy plus it has more than enough punch for me. The Type R is for people with intentions of tracking like you. It's all dependent on lifestyle and practicality but that thing is a beast and I would compromise if not for the dealers trying go in raw no lube.
