Congrats on the great pickup. Picking mine up soon but I am having such a hard time deciding between championship white or boost blue. I need to decide soon before they are gone though.
That's the thing ppl don't realize when they complain about cars getting expensive. Pretty much every model has grown 5-10 inches in length over the past few years. If you previously had a Camry, a modern Corolla p much has the same space.
This is a good point, although there are plenty of other variables (inflation, production cost, etc). Just interesting to see what was once considered a small/compact grow into a midsize.
Garage Active made that quote soooo famous. He Carbon fibered both his R32 and R33. I can’t remember his name but his cars were featured at SEMA 2023 and Tokyo Auto Salon in 2024👍 I forgot to mention he also did a collaboration with GREDDY in California. Hesya badass legendary GTR fabricator
@boomboomtisk dude that brisket looked so good! I'm a Texan, so you know I love a good brisket. 😅 I've been putting off buying a Treager for car parts. 😆
What’s up with the tape? It’s gonna get dinged and If you keep it long time you’ll probably need a windshield eventually. Mine got cracked 2 months after I bought it new. So after 10 yrs now it’s pretty beat up and could use a new one, again. No cracks but some chips , it’s not if it’s when if you drive em. To Florida, Tennessee ect ect..
As stated in the video, the tape was on to help protect the paint before the PPF was done but later on during the trip I noticed that the front bumper already had some film treatment on it so I didn’t reapply the tape. It’s a pretty new car, wouldn’t hurt to see if we can save some of the paint while it’s still fresh. The fresh paint on my track Civic took a beating right after it was done so hopefully I can save the new car a bit longer.
Dealer doesn’t have part yet. My 24 sport touring hatchback is one of the cars recalled. Dealer told me to check back in a couple of weeks. Thus far, I have not experienced any sticky steering issues.
Tuned,bolt on Elantra N for me if I was an import guy. My step son ordered a new one in 24 , 6 speed manual of course. I threw some parts at it for Christmas last year plus a tune . This ain’t Cali. What cat converter? No need here.
This is Cali for us, gotta keep them somewhat legit. Not too worried about power adders at the moment, maybe some suspension and brake upgrades will come first.
Don’t care for that color on that car or the Camaro, mustang. They all have roughly the same high vis , look at me officer color. Probably good for a girl though. My wife only drives black cars, unless she’s driving my 600 hp White Camaro 1LE, which is rarely. She can drive the hell out of a stick though, she’ll peel before killing it!
It’s a Type-R, just felt right to have something bright and fun. Plenty of other grey and black cars on the road, I like being able to spot our car quickly in a parking lot. Props to your wife for driving some cool cars though👍
That’s a valid opinion. The starting price point of this car will definitely have other good contenders in its market. However, as a mechanic I can appreciate the simplicity of maintaining & servicing the Honda in comparison to a European alternative. Also the new Type-R is the current embodiment of Honda’s technology & so as a Honda nerd, it felt only right to experience this platform.
I smiled with a huge grin when you hugged your dad , mom and cousins. That’s what it’s all about 🤜🏽
Family time is the best🤝
congrats! beautiful car and color, I would pick up another pair of floor mats before they triple the price in 10 years lol
lol true that!😂
Tuxmats. Seriously.
Extra floor mats are a must. My first Type R got hit and I had to replace it. I kept the old mats and have never used the new ones.
😂😂😂
Wow, it’s awesome and it’s so good to see Cindy driving the new car. When I bought my 2019 fk8 I looked at it four hrs before I drove it
Yup, that’s the feeling! We were just standing there looking at it in disbelief lol
Siiiick. We just ordered the Integra Type-S on Friday. Can’t wait. Great cars.
That’s what’s up man, enjoy it!
Congratulations the car looks amazing!
Thanks!!🙌
Nice color. I love Pacific Honda that's where I got my FK8 and Odyssey. Staffs there are awesome
Thanks! Yeah we had a good experience there too👍
As they were pulling out there was a Boost blue fk8 what are the odds haha
Beautiful Boost Blue Boom Boom👍
Thank you 🙌
This car is dope. If I didn't have an F80 and had to buy a new car, this would be it.
Can’t go wrong with an F80 either👌
Awesome video bro! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!!
Nothing but blessing bro🙏. Another great video🫡.
Thanks as always bro!
Happy for you guys 🎉
Thanks Gee!
Congrats on the great pickup. Picking mine up soon but I am having such a hard time deciding between championship white or boost blue. I need to decide soon before they are gone though.
Can’t go wrong either way!
Crazy 😅 I also bought a FL5 on 9/28/24! But I got the 2024 one in Championship White. Great video! ❤
Thanks for watching and congrats on your new ride as well🤝
13:15 looks good, just don’t forget the headlights.
Congrats on the car too! Some day I'll be rolling in a Type R 😀
Good car, you’ll enjoy it👌

@boomboomtisk dude that brisket looked so good! I'm a Texan, so you know I love a good brisket. 😅 I've been putting off buying a Treager for car parts. 😆
When the time comes for the smoker, you’ll enjoy it for sure👌👌
Cool cqrs if they were 35k. At 47k im looking at a m240i for 2k more. Possibly even a golf r if i wahted 4 doors.
How’s the defective steering rack
Hasn’t been defective yet but I’m aware of the recall
240 mile fuel range at around half a tank😅 never seen a type r get such good mpg😂 she’s probably pushing over 400 miles between every fill up
😂😂😂 yeah once she starts playing with that R mode maybe those numbers will change
❤❤❤

That's my white GR Corolla next to your cousins GTR 😂😂😂
Nice! Glad you spotted it✌️
so sick 🔥🏎🔥
Thank you!!
Massive recall, over 2 million civics
We’ll cross that bridge when we get there lol
@@boomboomtisk yeah might want to take it to the dealer

🇦🇺✌🏽
How much did you end up paying for it?
what the payment how month and interest what year is the gtr . It cha su bao dude .
Liked 🎉 how much? My dealer wants 5k over plus the added garbage they added.
Seen mark-up go around 10-15k over but we were able to get a reasonable price on ours👍
What is considered reasonable 😢
Where did you get that cover for the car?
The parts department at the dealership sells it
opt for gtr r35 blue how much did u pay
they released the 2025 model already?
Yup yup👌
@@boomboomtisk 🔥🔥🔥
mspr or was there a markup?
@@kaga1 marked up of course but we got it down as much as we can
28:53 omg you guys do eat dog😂
Always got that dog in me lol
Tuned,bolt on Elantra N for me if I was an import guy. My step son ordered a new one in 24 , 6 speed manual of course. I threw some parts at it for Christmas last year plus a tune . This ain’t Cali. What cat converter? No need here.
This is Cali for us, gotta keep them somewhat legit. Not too worried about power adders at the moment, maybe some suspension and brake upgrades will come first.
hope you got a good deal on this. pacific honda has the worst markups in SD
I’m happy with what we got it for👍
Don’t care for that color on that car or the Camaro, mustang. They all have roughly the same high vis , look at me officer color. Probably good for a girl though.

👍🇵🇱😁
dam a 45k car got manual seat adjustment wtf
my thoughts too lol, but in the interest of weight savings it makes sense to not have a power seat
I have the same color #28101 congrats
Boost blue ftw💙
Nah not the child’s booster seat🤦🏻♂️
gotta do what you gotta do🤷♂️

Yeah but the Honda is not gonna be at the mechanic shop after 60k miles like the m240i 😂
