  • ‪@WillMotivation‬ and ‪@Gonin60‬ along with a lot of subscribers have been asking me for a while now, which car is my favorite car between our 2024 VW GTI 380 edition and our 2023 FL5 Honda Civic Type R so I decided to make this video and answer that very question. #VWGTI #FL5TypeR #Racecarfriends

    All of your vids have helped me big with the deciding on the GTI, thanks! Subbed. I’m 6’4 and appreciate the truth about it taking all the backseat space, I’m just glad the front will fit 😂.
    Have tried laying the back seats down all the way with the driver’s seat back all the way? I carry equipment at times.
    Thanks again

      You're welcome and thank you I appreciate you being a part of the channel, so yes Ive actually folded the seats down and pushed the seat all t he way back and it works just fine, it was actually like that in this video when I picked up the groceries lol.

    Like you said the Type R is the more special car but me personally I'd choose the GTI cause it's the better bang for your buck vehicle.

    My biggest takeaway - while both have fake noise coming from the speakers, the noise from the Type R is WAY more annoying.

    I’m Type R all of the way everyday, but I can see why you like the GTI. FL5 was looking nice on that strip. And I see that you will be dropping an album soon. Everyone subscribe and pick up an album. LETS GOOO 🔥🔥🔥

    How’s the clutch and manual transmission compared to the R? I always felt like the gti clutch felt sticky and slow to engage

    • @RaceCarFriends
      @RaceCarFriends  Před 26 dny

      I can't speak for other GTI's but these 2024 GTI 380 clutches feels really strong much better than the MK8 Golf R clutch, this one feels like it was meant to take power.
