savagegeese discuss the Civic Type R after owning the vehicle for over a year. Its an interesting video from the perspective of both an automotive journalist and long term owner.

    Interesting to hear Mark and Jack use of a lot of the same words they use to describe modern BMW to the Type R. Lackluster steering, synthesized engine noise, fancy diffs to put the power down, competent engine that pulls hard but may lack the noise and theatre of older engines.

      I’m not sure if the lack of sound applies to the b58. Just with a dp it sounds amazing. After adding an exhaust, I don’t listen to music anymore.

        Oh I love the way the B58 sounds. I was more pointing out how the SavageGeese channel uses a lot of the same verbiage from their point of view.
