I tried to Trade In for the NEW TYPE R 

Most dealerships I find online try to sell an FK8 Civic type R for $45000 to $50000 regardless of what year or miles on it. The fact that they only offered you$26000 is offensive to me.

Everyone, do not pay $1 above msrp

When you're in M3 pricing territory time to walk away

Sold my 2021 FK8 in April for 45k with 18k miles. 26k is insulting. Im going for a g80 m3 at this point. No way in hell I’m spending 70k plus for a civic

The consumers need to stick together on this one. Dealers need to learn that they can't get away with markups... and anyone that does pay it should feel shame.

I walked into my local honda dealership just before christmas to ask about the new CTR and Si. I was told on the incoming Sonic Grey Pearl Si they have coming in, they want 3K market adjustment, a non negotiable 2.5K “protection package” and a 1K non refundable deposit to reserve the car. The singular Type R they have coming in has been pre-purchased for 15k over sticker. Looks like I will be continuing my search for a FK8

not even hiding the fact that they're trying to rob you 😂

The way the economy is looking, if you can wait 6 months you should find these at or below MSRP when the market flips.

Am I the only one that likes the FK8 look over the new FL?

Thats crazy. I paid no markup on my 2018 FK8. I went to a dealership here in VA and they wanted 15K over MSRP on the FL5. Laughed all the way home

Your FK8 with the white Mugen kit makes your Type R way top 🔥 to trade in for a $70k FL5 Maybe hold on to your machine a couple more years and see what things look like then?? 🤷‍♂️

The impression I'm getting is that the FK8 is a better car. It might have been the throttlehouse video but it showed the FK8 being faster than the FL5. The easy way to prevent the red carpet from looking bad over time is to put clear floor mats over it or matching red weathertech mats.

Good video. Great looking FK8! I like the way the Mugen kit softened up the lines like you stated. I was just on Copart and the market value for the FK8 on some of the cars listed is upwards of 45k with over 20k miles on the odometer! I would imagine them asking over 60k for your car… they thought they had a sucker on the line in you and were salivating on the potential ripoff they were hoping to get… I drive an FK8 and was debating if I should get the new one. What’s good about the FK8 is it’s the first Type R offered to the States and it’s aggressive styling. I’m keeping mine. I’d rather wait for the new R offerings from Honda/Acura I can imagine them coming out with something really special in the near future & not so similar to what I already have. 😎🤙🏽🙏🏽

I owed $27,000 on my 2021 FK8 with 28k miles on it , long story short , I got $39,500 for my trade in on a 2022 Mach1 so needless to say I now own a Brand new Mustang Mach 1 and my opinion the FK8 looks like a Type R , the FL5 looks like an Accord with a wing … keep ur FK8

I wouldn't even talk to anybody at a dealership with those ridiculous prices for any car

I own an 2020 FK8 and honestly the FL ain't it at all. I wouldn't ever trade in my ctr for that accord look alike. I'll give it to them on the cleaner dash and non suede steering wheel but that's about it for me. Def not worth no $10k-$30k markup. They are smokin that good shiet if they expect the target audience to pay that...

That's 2023 IS500 territory.

Awesome video!! I bought a new 2019 FK8 in the spring of 2019 and have really liked it!! I have not modified it and have put 15k miles on it! I have enjoyed every mile! I might trade or sell my fk8 because I am looking to get an fl5 from the dealership I bought my fk8 at! The fk8 and fl5 are both incredible cars and I don’t think a person can go wrong with either one!! I am a new subscriber and I look forward to more of your videos! Hope you have a very Merry Christmas! 🚙🎄🤜🏼🤛🏼👍🏼😀

That dealer looks vaguely familiar. Is that the Westminster Honda World? I could be wrong. They have very high markup there. Even for the FK8 when they were new.

Perfect argument on performance

Sell your car elsewhere, and then go back and say alright guys 10k over right now let’s get it done today. I payed 10k over for mine, I jumped on it when I found one and didn’t do much more looking after that. I’ve heard some people finding it at msrp and I’ve heard of some paying 5k over and some paying 7 and 8k over. But Atleast for me I couldn’t justify paying anymore than 10k over so I was fairly happy. Of course would have been nice to get it cheaper but the 15-25k over msrp is just pretty crazy to me. I would really either not buy a car period or look at something totally different at that price point.

I have a feeling all these markups are forced on customers so that EVs are sold. Just every car company at the same time is doing the same thing. If you are going gas we are going to make it hurt as much as we can. That's the feel I'm getting these days.

$75k for a Honda is just absolutely insane. No reason to be polite to them. We gotta tell them straight up that they are out of their minds. Only reason they’re getting away with this is because there are idiots out there willing to pay that much for this car.

I think its so ridiculous. I used to sell cars 15 years ago. The guy bought a 03 Roush Mustang that had a $5k addendum added to it. He came in a week later to trade in for an expedition. The used car manager/appraiser said it is just a Mustang GT with ground effects, and gave a trade value $10k less than he paid for it.

Mans is riding the FK8 HEAVY 😂

FK8 for life boiiiiiiiiii🏎️

Walk in like an Alpha and if its over MSRP you walk out like an Alpha. They are just trying to find suckers.

They did a 1/4 mile drag race and the 11th gen is slower than the 10th gen lol

Mines a 2017 as well, & I only have 16k miles on mine. I’ve done way too much to my FK8, to start over w/a FL5!!! I like em, but c’mon w/that BS trade in value, & markup!!

... not looking forward to seeing the markup on the Type-S Integra either.

30k above msrp is ridiculous for any car. These dealers are just greedy and people are just impatient to wait it out.

I wonder what time they would have gotten if they put everything on +R and the suspension on comfort, with traction fully off (pedal dance).

$22k is insane. The Honda dealer by me in their defense has only gotten one. Honda should manufacture more.

Honda Headquarters should start doing Head for the mark ups ...

Oh hell no that’s west minister Honda? That’s sucks they are always over priced there but somehow they get one of the best cars

If its too stiff than there no point of getting the type r at all and that's the whole point of a type r for racing that stiffness is for handling around corners .whoever that don't like it just buy the si or ex models .

10th gen looks a lot Better then the 11th

Pretty sure it's illegal in Canada to mark-up a car. Anyway, sticker price for my new FL5. Also got over 37k on a trade in for my stock 2018 FK8 with 47k kilometers on it.

For $74k I’d buy a M340i n save almost 20k n it’s a BMW first of all n it has the B58. What more can I say.

30K over markup? Lame!! I wouldn't even pay 0.50 cents markup if they asked for it. Are they trying to make everyone seem stupid enough to throw away money for nothing? That's enough to drive someone through a 7 floor building. Keep yourFk8- there won't be another one like it. Idiots offering 26K for your car? My 2020 only has 4K miles on it. Last time I checked KBB on it and it was worth 47K.

Smh the mark up costs more than my WRX

Those fl5 look way to bland

It's crazy that people would pay so much over asking when they will never get that money back when they try to sell it later. It's not like the Type R's are rare or that Honda is only going to produce a limited amount. Unless someone is buying it as purely a collectors car and keeping it in the garage for the next 20 yrs I don't see a point in paying over sticker, but hey we all do what we want with our own money.

Keep your FK8 man!!

Love the content

I’m glad there’s mark ups. Either the flippers make money or the dealers. It don’t matter. Keeps the car more exclusive. You broke people can cry about msrp all you want 😂

Dude I think yours is way nicer, and after the ridiculous markups dealers should be legally charged with felonies. I know about the law of supply and demand, but when outright robbery is encouraged enough is enough ya know?

The new one looks so much better then your 10th gen... Crazy how much cleaner it looks.

that car has been sitting there since first days of November. that dealer is where I bought my 2019 FK8. they wanted 30K on Nov 6 when I saw it. guess they still do now. they had a SOLD paper on it but they said its not sold. Idiots playing games. buying my FK8 here was seamless, not anymore.

26 thousand doesn't even cover the markup on the new car unbelievable so basically your giving them your car and dishing out 4000 plus the MSRP of the new car they are insane

Bro keep ur fk8 … I love ur car …👍 don’t make a mistake… to much money on mark up..

That mark up is f’ing ridiculous. Ain’t no civic out there worth $75k.

Excellent detail info 💪

Sorry but it not worth the money for the FL5 $77.000 here in Australia and we get the fastest one

That ff7 bg music track 🤘

What value do the dealers add to justify this markup?

That dealer is smoking crack. 26 for your car and 22 over for theirs lol

In all honesty, this is why I got the Elantra N MT. It has ALOT better value than the CTR. for literally 10k less you get similar performance, a better sounding exhaust (by a long shot), and the choice between DCT and M/T. It's also easier to find at MSRP, so that's another win. 44k for a civic not including markup is a little steep.

It's funny how everyone thinks what their car is worth. Especially a modded one. Dealers don't care about if your wheels are volks or reps. Stock always priced higher unless you sell private party.

Never trade in your car bro. They always lowball the trade in value, you’re better off selling it to carmax or Autonation using that as a down payment.

And people are still paying markup lol

I keep telling people who are foolish enough to pay $30k over MSRP, if you are able to afford that then it makes more sense to buy a sports car actually worth $70K not a souped up Civic.

30k mark up... rather get a Porsche cayman S. Also, FK8 > FL5 in aesthetics and bang for your buck

Stiffer to accommodate wider and more aggressive tires. FK8 dampers are not aggressive enough. FL5 is 5-10% better in every way. Used FK8s are 45-50k and most dealers are 10k markup on the FL5. Seems like the video was a little biased soft bash lol.

Maybe I'm crazy but the previous body style looked better anyway.

I have my fk8 paid off and anything over 5k msrk up is pretty idiotic to allow. Let it sit there with no actual interest. It'll come down.

I wouldnt even trade a fk8 for a fl5 the fk8 is faster in a 40 roll and 60 roll against a fl5

People are fucking nuts to even think of paying anything over sticker highway robbery!!!!!!

I thought I heard markup of $3,000 and I was like, ok, not terrible but these dealers 🙄 then I saw the sticker.... $25k markup on TOP of the $4-5000 bullshit add-ons. WOW.

I guess I have to be happy with what I paid 11k mark up

I can't believe there are people out there who would pay this money for a civic. One thing being a honda fan boy , and totally different to be stupid. For 50k , I would buy a 2.0t accord 6 speed manual and mod to the moon. And still have money left 😂

Not worth trading in your FK8 its too new its too rare. You need to just buy another one if that is what you want. Not sure why you would want another Type R at those prices I would be happy with the FK8 and buy something more exotic.

M 240i. 54 k. 10 k tune= 500 rwhp car

WTF is that total 74k ? WTHELL ?

Stop paying dealer markups!!!! It’s just a car! It’s not worth it

$74,000 for a civic?!?!?!? No thank you lol

You should have countered by marking up your car by $22k

I see you're an FFVII fan.

Great video and dealership are just greedy asf and smoking some camel shit if you think I or anyone in their right mind is going to pay almost 80k for a civic

#defundmarkup

Wake up man $75000 for a Honda Civic is not worth it..if the new one worth that much yours should about the same!

Markup when people are struggling to make rent. They're wrong

Dealership markups should be illegal imo.

Ohfak that. Might as well get a tesla model 3 performance

Why would you get hosed on a civic,, yes, a civic. For that price you could have a bmw m car that will kick the balls off of that rice rocket! It’s a no brained. Get a German engineered car for less $

75 thousand they have lost there minds

$75K for a Honda sedan with little over 300HP? Lol.

70k..omg no way!

Don't trade. Please wait. Not wert it.

Someone has to be very desperate to pay that much over! You can buy a Mercedes cla45 AMG with more power.

Dealers are reeling from overpaying for used cars over the pandemic they still want to charge ADM yet offer low trade ins hahahahaha. I hope I see the downfall of the dealer network in my lifetime.

70 grand for a honda lmfao 🤣🤣

Interior looks great, exterior meh

I rather get an S2000 they becoming rare

I laughed and went to bmw instead:p

$30k haha...more than an RS3

hahahaha 74000 🤣😂

You’re so cool going in and wasting peoples time

Don’t buy any car with ADM.

30k markups 🤣
