The best handling and the most comfortable sports car I have owned! `

I have owned type R FK2 for 4 years and I am now driving the type R FK8 GT model for a few months with thousands of km on it.
The type R FK8 is an amazing car that a manual lover must try. Shifting from FK2 to FK8, I am surprised that its nature can be so split. On one hand, it can be so quiet and comfortable. On the other hand, it can be so powerful and sportive at +R mode. My whole family likes this car. I love driving it, my wife likes its ride and spacious cabin and my son likes its unique look.
The more I drive this car, the more it grows on me.

Amazing Handling and 100 to 150km/h `

Coming from a FD2R to FK8, the FD2R is more raw and noisy. FK8 is much more refine and really good for family as the comfort mode certainly come in useful when you are ferrying your family. Power comes in much earlier at 2500rpm onward since it is a turbo charged, no need to wait for VTEC Yo at 5800rpm. Mayhem usually follow shortly in my old FD2r when VTEC Yo kicks in which usually by then, wife is shouting at you for driving like a twat while your baby starts wailing at the top of his voice. In the FK8, I can be like DK (Drift King, not Donkey Kong) without unleashing hell upon myself and everyone stays happy.
The cornering for this FK8 is also another level from FD2R which is in direct relationship to the price. All in all, no major regrets but there are minute stuffs which I didn't quite like it and if the car is in 120k range. I would perhaps be more forgiving but at near 190k car when new, I am perplex as to why Honda allow that to happen. Mind you, the Honda FD2R was 100k when new, on that note, how 190k (90% Increase) came about within a space of 10 years is beyond me.

To get the context right, I drove up to Ipoh from Singapore a Week ago using my own car. Met up with my relative who owns a Honda Civic Type-R there. Luckily, he allowed me to test drive his car around the neighbourhood. The Model that I tested out was the Honda Civic Type-R Manual Transmission.
