Three Years On Has the Honda Civic Type R FK8 Aged Gracefully?
Around three years ago, Honda Cars Philippines gave me the keys to the Civic Type R. At the time, it came with a very strict set of instructions, the gist of which was to treat it like a newborn puppy. With a lowered ride height, 30-series tires on 20-inch rims, and a carbon fiber aero kit, they were very exacting on the sort of garage space I was allowed to park it in. Suffice to say, mine passed muster and I got to enjoy some seat time with this 306-horsepower hot hatch.
