Pros

  • 4 years later, with hundreds of hours of wrenching experience, probably 100,000 miles driven, and a lot more experience, I just bought a Civic Type R, my first sports car.
  • Instructions unclear bought a civic type r
  • I’ll recommend a civic type r though. Room for 4 and all their stuff. Fun and gets 28-30 mpg on the highway depending how you drive
  • No. A Civic Type R is the answer
  • This specific model and trim will retain more residual value than a base model bmw.

Cons

  • Parent context: Civic Type R ! Reply: Civic Type R would be a wild pivot, haha love the thought of something so different, but I’m probably still chasing a bit more luxury.
  • Civic type R?
  • The top of the hot hatch market just blends into the mid range sport sedan market too much to justify getting something like a civic type R or GR Corolla, in my opinion.

Keep the Civic type r. It's very reliable, low maintenance costs and good resale value.

I really like the car, but I have a nagging feeling that I have too much money tied up in it.
