2018 Honda Civic Type-R

[G.Irish]

On the real I’m pumped to see this at Karting tomorrow. How is the exhaust sounds while your driving with windows up or down, IE too much or too little?

It's got a little rasp and bass to it, but it's by no means annoying or overpowering. For a turbo inline 4-cylinder it sounds decent. I don't feel a need to make it louder (though I might anyway).

Also, how aggressive are you going to be on track with this

I'll get out and drive it fairly hard, but not trying-to-put-it-on-pole hard. Anytime I'm driving a street car on track there's a level of aggression that I don't go to, so I can reduce chances of a crash. That hasn't always worked, but usually it does.

You mentioned the heated steering wheel and seats, surprised it isn’t on a 2018 car? Any other creature comforts it’s missing?

I was just making a joke about our Odyssey. That car really isn't missing much of anything.

eBay turbo the Fit, probably end up faster and save you some coin.

Real talk, a Fit may be in my future. Depends on how things go in the next 1 to 3 years, but I'd like to go having the Fit for runabout street car, and a 2 seater for the fun car. At the very least I should be able to do that when last kid starts going to public skool.
