    **I say it in the ON THROTTLE portion of this video but I also wanted to pin this as a comment directly here!
    THANK YOU to the whole Raiti's Rides family for your continued support over the years. Lori & I are very grateful for you allowing us to share our car passion with you, twinkie storage locations and of course ZONKS. None of this would be possible with you all watching, commenting and subscribing. I believe we have the best community with Raiti's Rides on TH-cam! From the bottom of our hearts once again, THANK YOU!

      No problem Joe u are very welcome and of course congrats Joe. We cant get enough of your content, amd please don't ever slow down brother! I have to ask, that is a mighty lot of car payments isn't it? Lol. And also where do you keep your whole fleet Joe? 😄 From what I know your fleet consists of:
      1. Mini Cooper
      2. Ford Bronco Wildtrak
      3. Subaru WRX STI Type RA
      4. Camaro Zl1 1LE
      5 Ford Mustang GT350
      6 And the newest, 2023 Honda Civic Type R
      That's 6 vehicles Joe!

    JJ ~ something only a man can understand, that feeling of taking your new car home & just sitting in it, checking everything out, discovering what that switch does or what this button did, that smell, that feeling of utter euphoria, I guess it's kinda how a woman feels on her wedding day. no matter how old a man gets, when he has that new car he feels like he is 18 again & it's an emotionally beautiful thing. so happy for you, tony

    acquisition 🍀
    Looks to me like you creating a great collection of the greatest hits before everything goes hybrid or electric and the manual trans disappears.
    WRX sti , Shelby, Camaro ZL1 and now probably the last totally internal combustion Honda R . Smart move! Even your wife’s unmodified BRZ may be a rarity some day. Think you need one more. A C7 because it’s the last front engine manual Vette. The ultimate for me would be a ZR-1 convertible! Completely out of reach price wise . I’m just hoping to one day get my hands on a nice convertible with the Z51 package or maybe even a Grand Sport.

    This is a nice commercial for Honda and Tampa Honda. Honestly sick of the TH-camrs buying these at sticker and writing them off as “long term tester” as a business expense most likely. What a joke. I’ve bought a dozen Hondas probably and all the dealers I see are asking me for $65,000. Using your platform to gain access for test drives and content is fine, but this shit is a slap in the face from Honda to all the regular consumers. (And the fact you got a test drive… must be nice)

    Seeing the original renders before it was unveiled, I was pretty disappointed. Even with the press photos, I wasn't intrigued. Seeing it in person, it's an extremely nice looking hot hatch. I do wish there was an AWD option, as well as them not making this as large as an Accord. This is basically a full-sized sedan.
