Stylish and sleek

This is the first time I own a car I can see myself happy with. Easy driving and fast. Very stylish and modern with all the features you can think of. Honda outdid themselves with the civic sport touring. In love!!!

Best all around car I?ve owned for the money.

With a few minor upgrades this is a great all around daily driven car. Down sizing the wheels to allow for a thicker profile tire will help drastically with bumps in the road and gives the extra sidewall to give peace of mind. The car is quick enough to zip around and stable enough to hit corners for spirited driving. Seats are very comfortable. Only thing lacking is a little refinement such as heated seats and steering wheel and maybe a moon roof. All of which you tend to forget about as soon as u start driving.

Wow, this is fast.

This Type R was actually a second half 2017 and had 5000 miles. Found it online and the dealer was Mazda so wanted to get rid of it. The Type R can go 170 mph but I liked the look. I bought a gray one with red trim so I get some looks from other cars. I expect this Honda to last awhile and the 6-speed is really fun.

Type R

Amazing machine! Powerful, stylish, & economical. You feel like a king behind the wheel. You instantly know this is a special vehicle. Smiles per gallon are endless. A treat to own and drive such an incredible vehicle. I'm so proud of this purchase and the additional $10K didn't even phase me. Would do it again.
