Yeah one of the more silly comments for 2024..

Imagine paying 43K for a base mustang GT and you can't even seat people in the rear without cutting their blood circulation. Can't take a turn faster than a FWD economy hatch or even worse stop in a shorter distance. This is really ludicrous.

They didn't price it accordingly... They did it civically. 😅

Ok. I get what you’re saying, but it is fantastic on track. It’s frightening capable for a front wheel drive car. I still think it’s an overpriced hatchback, but in its market it’s the fastest one, on track. And it’s cool trick is fitting 2 people, a set of slick tires and all tools inside and driving to the stack to swap.

I think I’d rather have an Integra type S.

Everyone knows people with Mustangs aren’t fanboys😂😂😂😂

This is what bothers me about many car reviews. Some of these need more specialized reviews rather than hey look how much slower a 4 cylinder car is from an 8 cylinder car. I mean its a no-brainer it's like asking how is a butter knife at cutting a steak or a scalpel at cutting a tree?

@@marcinhernik1270 the type R still gets slapped by a regular GT with PP on a track, i don’t know why yall are coping, it isn’t a good car in anything for the money.

@@oscaraguilera4172umm it is FAR better than the Mustang, MOVE ON

​@@user-tg8do2kr4v At what? Fuel efficiency and functionality? Which are both things nobody looks for when they buy a sports car. The GT beats it in the straights and track. It doesn't even beat European rivals either. It would be awesome cheap fun if it were cheaper but it's not. Thus it fails at everything except reliability potentially but the poor car was sent to compete in a market it fails at and it costs too much.

@@lidolf8168it’s not beating a type r on any track, what have you been watching😂😂😂. I get it”fanboy”. My brother has a Mustang and it can’t keep up with my 18 year old S2000 if you put a curve in front of him. He still thinks it’s faster than a NASCAR😂😂😂😂

Oh it has torque steer, but in a very different way than other cars since the ecu does weird shit to make it feel different.

It is NOT to expensive, it is worth EVERY penny and then some

For a 60k Honda, they should have put in red back seats. Looks so ghetto with black seats in back. Honda cut corners.

@@user-tg8do2kr4v No. For the 60k it's worth. Go get the integra version for the same price.

@@benjaminmatute9085 lmfao $60k for a Honda Civic with an R logo and turbo, people have certainly lost their minds hahaha

That’s not what they are doing. It only happens in this comment section.

EXACTLY

Facts buy what you like drive what you want it doesnt matter unless you tryna have the fastest 😂 tx2k will still beat you in a drag race or street

DH > CTR GT with performance pkg is pretty close to the CTR

@@Marbind DH will beat CTR overall but the performance pk gt still won’t keep up with the CTR

All I know is this C&D Lightning Lap Times 2018 Mustang GT PP = 2:53.8 2023 CTR = 2:58.8@@scotturich

IDK my Darkhorse with Handling package will put in work.

@@johnflanagan6231 I’ve run on the track with a few already and there isn’t a big separation. Don’t get me wrong the Darkhorse is a proper track car

The CTR was never known for cheap speed, that's the mustang.

Nothing to assume here, this is common knowledge. To beat or match the spirited cornering performance of CTR you need to spend on a Dark Horse or get the Performance Pkg that might even things out when turns are added to the mix.

Better tires, brakes, and suspension and the Mustang would still beat the type r on corners. People think Mustangs are still in the 60s of technology. They handle great with a professional driver

@@angelgjr1999 false. Needs the proper handling packages. Without it the CTR will own it in a road course.

@@angelgjr1999 umm no it wouldn't

@@user-tg8do2kr4v fanboy spotted.

Yeah but price wise, the M3 is still 15k more than a Mustang Dark Horse and the Dark Horse is 15k more than the base GT in the video. So you'd be going up essentially 2 notches in the mustang hierarchy in an attempt to reach the same price point of the M3 as well as similar power.

@@knivesinedc We're comparing performance. Looking at which vehicle can use power more efficient. Which vehicle has better traction, and the gear box. Yeah, BMW is more expensive, but you also get more comfort, better handling, and better stopping. And of course higher quality interior materials. And of course you are paying for a brand name. Kind of like overpriced iPhones. LOL

​@@eastone8514that makes no sense, you are just saying that which one has better engineering 😂

@@fastcars514 It makes a perfect sense what I'm saying!

Mustangs are quick in the high speed range, it would still smoke the civic even if it has AWD. Put some fat slicks on the Mustang GT and they’re one of the fastest cars on the street.

@@angelgjr1999😂

and still ugly and lame. @@angelgjr1999

@@fritty9927I bet you own a Honda lmfao

@@theleanman9558 swing and a miss. I drive a FWD Toyota.

Obviously. With that, TFL has always done fun mashups for giggles. I wouldn't get up set over a video like this.

Plenty of 700-1000hp Civics right here on UKposts sweetheart. Guys are making 500+whp in Honda Accords with the detuned version of the 2.0t. Those Accord 2.0T's were under $30k new.

@@WisconsinEric Sweetie pie, I think you may have misunderstood my post. I never said that making any car 700 hp is not possible. I clearly stated pricing since in the video they seemed to involve pricing over and over. My point was simple, a brand new Coyote 5.0 Mustang Gt engine is literally already built for 700 hp with just spark plugs, injectors and little tuning with the blower for the most part so much so that even Ford themselves offer 3 year warranties 36000 miles on Mustang Gts with an installed kit themselves also. The big difference I was making is that with the Hondas and many other cars the engines literally stock are not reliable at all running 700+hp they require internal component swaps and much more. You can even get a used 2017 Mustang GT for under 30k plop a super charger kit on it and for the most part have a very reliable 700hp car that is still very capable on a track especially with a track pack GT sooo much cheaper and easier competing with cars in the six digits for probably under $50k but the guys in this video lie about the Mustang GT performance pack because as I originally stated a 2024 GT is around $42k and a performance pack is like $47.5k and just installing a supercharger through Ford can even retain a warranty and probably still be cheaper if not the same price as this Civic R that the base Gt is already walking away from, you would essentially have a borderline exotic track capable car at that point

Civic Type-R is priced at $45k. The video makers "$60k" was what some guys paid due to demand during the plandemic. I remember when '01 Integra Type-R's were $26k and Mustangs were priced the same. Mustang owned the Type-R at the strip and the Type-R crushed the Mustang in the corners. I bet the results would be very similar between these current offerings. If you plug $26k into an inflation calculator from 2001 to 2023 you get $45k(blame the Federal Reserve). The same guys that thought the Type-R was too expensive in '01 now wish they would have bought one as resale prices are very high. I suspect this current Type-R will age well too. As for internal engine modifications to make 500+hp from k20's and k24's, none are required, not even rods. The videos are right here on UKposts.

Me too! 😁

Engines nice but the Civic just drives so much better

Waah, my tires are smaller. Stfu

The Honda is way overpriced and overhyped. A few upgrades in the Mustang would make it corner better than the type r. Keep in mind they’re comparing the top of the line Honda to a base model GT.

@@angelgjr1999keep in mind it’s a 4cyl. VS 8!

Have you checked the resale on GT Mustangs lately? 2017 for 2017 they're at least equal with Mustangs going as high as $36,000. As for reliability and durability, smart money is on an N/A V8 any day. Turbo 4's are not exactly known for durability and low maintenance.

@@francoisrivard893 Honda is known for quality and long lasting engines however. Have not checked the values but be nice if TFL included this in there report was my point

@@noirrain6005 yeah thats true!

Mustang would chew it up on the track too, and that's the base Mustang, take on a PP or a Dark Horse and total embarrassment is your future.

@@BigTimeRushFan2112 umm no it wouldn't, the mustang would have ZERO chance against the Honda

@@user-tg8do2kr4v LOL. Put down the bottle and go sleep it off fan boi.

Umm there is PLENTY, and this Honda is one of them

@@user-tg8do2kr4v wrong, next contender.

@@BigInjun05 NOT wrong, YOU are wrong

@@user-tg8do2kr4v incorrect.

Camaro better

im pretty torn between the two, always wanted the Type-R, what makes you feel that it is hands down better? I did think the back seats being leather helped it be less cheap looking, the front is debatable with the TypeR buckets vs the leather. Aside from that it looked like the Acura was just a toned down TypeR (maybe not as great on the track).

It’s not just civic lol It’s a totally different car from a regular civic….everything is different mechanically and more.

wasting your time, he won't ever understand @@commonduck10

In 2001 the Integra Type-R was $26,000 new. That was for a NA 1.8 liter making 195hp. Accounting for inflation $26k in 2001 equals $44,500 today(blame the Federal Reserve). Back then people thought $26k was too much for a Type-R. Today resale prices are very high on those Type-R's as very few were sold. I am thinking the current Type-R's will age well too. I'm not "High" but I did just blaze a pink strawberry pheno of Jack Herer F2.

The 195hp 2001 Integra Type-R was $26,000. $26,000 in 2001 equals $44,500 today accounting for inflation. That was for a NA 1.8 liter with none of the fancy computer screen BS that people "need" these days. In 2001 people thought that $26K was too much for the Type-R, but when you built a Type-R out of a GSR or base model you would quickly find that $26K was a bargain for the R-spec Integra. Today those 20+yr old ITR's are very collectable and command very high resale prices. I suspect the new Type-R's will age well too.

Mustang also sound

That’s not the point of a CTR. Every single Type R has been FWD. If you need AWD there’s plenty of options like Golf R, WRX, Focus RS and GR Corolla

For the price? this car is cheap

Then it becomes slow in the corners like the competition. Golf R and GR Corolla No thanks

Fun fact: All of the car you mentioned with all mighty AWD are slower around a track than the CTR. Source: Car And Driver Lightning Lap leader board.@@macneill949

it's faster around a track, and in general...... so your opinion is stupid and incorrect@@Marbind

The dealership bent you over and you took it deep..

Well why you out there in the mud taking horse dick in your 120,000 dollar f250 I paid way more lesser and I'm driving better than you saving way more so the way I see it U CAN'T TALK

It has diminished to $5k or less. I still refuse to pay over MSRP.

Typical mexicans that rather buy a 4 cylinder to save gas

Yes all models

BTW that 4 cylinder cost more than that v8 😂 junk honda

Spoken out of true ignorance. Congrats. Good drive a Type R, I promise you’ll change your mind
