2021 Honda Civic Type R Reviews, Pricing & Specs

What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 2021 Honda Civic Type R are thrilled with its performance and handling, often describing it as a track-ready marvel. Many appreciate the comfort of the seats and the engineering excellence. However, some drivers wish for more features like a sunroof and improved rearview camera. The price is noted as high, but those who find it for MSRP consider it a great deal."
Its everything I wanted and more! I have had two 10th Gen Civic Sis, and this car is better in every way you would expect it to be! The seats are so comfy, and the handling is unmatched. I couldnt be happier!
September 14, 2021I drove out of the dealer with a car I bought above sticker price, and the vehicle was not only what I expected but so much more. The Type R is a true marvel of Honda engineering at its finest. Its comfortable and practical as a daily driver and a monster on the track. I would recommend it not only to Honda lovers but to those who appreciate top-notch engineering!
December 4, 2020Power and handling are superb, especially on the back road twisties. The price of a round 40K, is pushing the margin of being a good value. It is missing some nice features like a sunroof and heated seats, although purists would say they are not needed. I would compare it to my w r X.

March 8, 2022its like having an entry super car. everybody looks at you wherever you go. personally, i wish it had a power moonroof and the passenger side camera like the Si but I understand this can be a track car so it makes sense. Comparing this car to my 10th gen civic Si coupe is not easy since they feel like 2 different cars despite being the same generation. Having a 2L turbo vtec engine sure feels nicer than the 1.5L turbo and those auto rev matches make driving it more enjoyable on longer rides. I truly loved my Si and intended to keep it but got the chance to hop into a Civic Type R from a close friend and avoiding a dealer markup...it was a no brainer. If you can get a 2021 Civic Type R for MSRP it is a good deal. Do not pay the added markup if you can avoid it. There will be more, dont rush it unless its the limited edition then thats up to you!
