And I thought its expenssive here in europe at 60000 € , but at 78000 € you are at an another level ..... have an older type R love them to death would like an FL5 but to give this kind of money for a civic is just pure crazy
Nice review. Gas guzzler, bumpy, loud, unrefined, tyre roar, raw and yet less brawny than the Germans. For those who want to relive the 90s and don't mind forking out RM400,000, I guess this is your thing.
10:50 , at first its disturbing seeing the key-card on the arm rest, but further through end video the key-card not moving or fall at all, type R engineered. 👍🏻
200k to the government. nice. thats why I rather buy house than donating my money to the government. Same thing goes to singapore, crazy government policies......
at RM400k, really just too much for what it is. the japanese are getting really good at creating miserable interior for their expensive sports cars. i thought the GR Corolla was bad at the back, but this is even worse
Hondas has excellent manual gearboxes generally and thus it's a shame that mainstream Hondas with manuals have been largely unavailable in the past 2 decades unlike Toyota and Nissan. There's no official Honda City manual but there is Toyota Vios manual and Nissan Latio/Almera manual.
Full tank (47L but practically just 43L) for normal civic rs 1.5L gets you 250km pushed hard, i'm sure fl5 will only give you 150-180 per full tank. Very very annoying, the fuel tank is too small. 45s didn't fare much better either at 250km/full tank (51L)
Car is never worth buying when you're a Malaysian lol these things sell for cheap outside Malaysia. But we peasants have to feed the government as usual $$$
Tax the rich and cash handout to B40, not good meh.. 🤭 If you are not rich and force yourself to buy you are just sohai... TypeR is an instrument for government to get more tax from the rich, poor ppl stay away.. 😝
@@furikuri23 all thanks to mahathir wanting to protect proton in the 90s and imported cars starting to get 'exclusive' tax in the 2000s. Imagine myvi 60k while mustang is 48k in the US. It's a total joke.
@@johndoe_r Purpose of protecting local products/goods is to improve country economy but unfortunately for our government, greed took over.. hence you put 200% tax on imported cars (which went into government officials pocket) but you still charge local brand (PROTON and PERODUA) at imported car price? Nevermind. In the end, our economy is still down because they ate all our money. No point.
I'm not Malaysian, so just curious. So if someone from KL buys a car in Langkawi, pays the tax-free price, what happens when they then head back to KL? Or is that not allowed?
@@MithunOnTheNet the car can use outside from Langkawi for 90 day or maximum 3 month within a years..and need to reserved some money/ bank guarantee about 70% from total Tax of that car for Msia Customs..when the time restrictions is over, owner need to returned that car to langkawi for the next 9 month..
Buy from Langkawi and keep it there until it is ready for West Malaysia, save almost 200k, not bad i think. FL5 front is really nice but the rear looks so droopy.
@faizulanuar2474 i think 2 years if I'm not mistaken. Someone i know bought C63s over there for around RM4xxk instead of here for RM7xxk and he kept it until it was ready for West Malaysia. If one doesn't mind the hassle, technically can still ship to West Malaysia and drive for a short period before the car has to go back to Langkawi.
@@eugp4198 no doubt gtr is fast. but dont compared it on the same segment of car. in sepang time attack, fk8 was faster than m4. fwd doesnt mean it slow. even some f1 driver prefer understeer on the corner, understeer car doesnt mean it slow on the track
