BMW M2 vs Honda Civic Type R | Who makes the better performance car?

#BMWM2 #HondaCivicTypeR #CivicTypeR
The BMW M2 is one of the best sports car/GT hybrids that money can buy, while the Honda Civic Type R has elevated itself beyond simply being a brilliant hot-hatch. The result is two cars that are more similar than you’d initially believe and a pairing that makes for an intriguing CAR magazine twin-test.

I have an M3 xdrive and Integra type s. I’ve driven the G87 M2 manual hard as well. The quick steering and light weight on the Honda products make them more engaging and confidence inspiring in turns, and there’s the whole “drive a slow car fast rather than a fast car slow” bit too. Very hard to stretch a G8x car’s legs on the street. The BMWs are objectively better cars, but I often opt to go out in the Acura because I have more fun around town at lower speeds and on tight turns Honda/ Acura inputs feel more natural and weight is lower, BMWs have more numb and less communicative inputs, but are more capable.

The FL5 is like a surgical knife. Can't imagine what a tune will do to this car. There are a few people pushing 550-550HP on youtube in their FL5s already with better turbos. The G87 M2 definitely has more layers to uncover and one of them is weight reduction. What people forget is why they bought the car and their usage. As a daily driver I'd go M2 all day because of the comfort and luxury. As a weekend, canyons and fun 2nd or 3rd car; FL5 all day.
Both awesome and thank God different. Most KZread reviewers want all vehicles to be same and offer same features, but complain about similarities and lack of distinction. I applaud you for understanding the difference and still appreciate each for what they are. I have chosen type R version which is Acura Integra Type S and my wife and I love it.
This dude is on top of his game, I will buy both.
I don't know...if you care about power only, then sure go for the short-term scrap BMW. The civic type-r was built with balance, to be fast, stable, agile, and etc. Plus, the type-r is cheaper and brings in a better resale value long-term. The civic type-r is better. 👍

@@davothegreat9990 if you have driven both of them back to back, you’ll know what I mean. I don’t mean to bash the m3, it’s a fun car to drive, a super fast one, and it is one of the tops of its own league. But as you daily the m3, some of the nuances becomes annoying, like the vague brake pedal feel, too light of steering wheel. To an extend it feels like isolated to the road. Almost like driving an electric car, and yes, i am also a current owner of tesla model 3 performance. And that almost 4000lb weight definitely not light, you certainly would feel the weight tossing around corner in twisty road like Angeles Crest. Yeah you can say the type R is FWD and not as great as OG RWD, but Honda has nailed it on the type r, it doesn’t feel like driving a FWD car, and overall as a package it is what makes a drivers car.

This review really puts into perspective the nuances of what makes a car "great." While the M2's power and precision are undeniable, the Type R's engaging nature and versatility at a lower price point make it an underdog that's hard to ignore. It's fascinating to see how these two, from different categories and price ranges, can offer unique driving experiences that cater to different audiences.

The FL5 (I hate calling it a Civic, its a class up from the standard model) is FWD for a reason - weight. Hence why it’s built for track, just like its predecessor, the FK8.

I always appreciated the FK8 very much. And with this FL5, I have an option that I can drive around where the design is more appealing for a man in his 50s. Love the wide rear stance.
Normally I'm attracted to RWD because of drifting, but this new M2 just isn't good enough to sway me away from a 4 cilinder, FWD car. Of course, that 4 cilinder FWD car is a Civic Type R, probably the best 4 cilinder car there is. ❤️ The Honda is truly a great thing, it might just be the 911 GT3 for the normal man! :)

the fact that both of these cars are being compared is insane. $44k Civic vs $63k M2
I think the point is. The world's are colliding these days. Honda always known to be cheaper and easier to drive (because they're engineered that way) that's why they're so popular among the 'less fortunate'. Meanwhile bmw, essentially the Honda of the Germans have arguably the same approach, they're the cheaper more sporty cars. I've been in all three Audi / bmw / Mercedes and I can vouch that bmw are far from making the most luxury cars out there but you can see their focus is more performance orientated. Now you compare the type R and the M2 today you can start to see they're building into the same car. Yes one fwd, the other is 3 door, etc. But boil down to what market they're made for and there you have it. The same people. I personally think the bmw is harder to live with every day. And one thing the journalists never talk about is reliability which is missed opportunity. All you have to do is tap into the statistics of the heritage of these two and youll start to see very clearly why honda is still excelling with selling their cars while bmw are struggling to push out their brand new M cars. Insurance, servicing, tyres. Why spend 15K more on a car that only JUST won this review when you can get a car that wins in almost everyother comparison.

I might be going crazy but I can actaully see the added momentum in the weight transfer through corners versus well a normal sportscar that SHOULD weigh under 3,400 lbs instead of 3,900.
9:32-10:09 This is where the lighter weight becomes a factor. You see, BMW "hid" its weight, by adding a lot of electronic aid into its drive. It might feel great around a corner, but you won't get all that is explained in this clip because it weighs so much.

The M2 is a class above in every way. Yes the Type R is a fine handling machine, but it's not a coupe, it's not RWD, and it's not got the same quality and luxury.
Bmw may give a bit more on performance being rear wheel drive or all wheel drive but the type r will last longer with the performance it has. Both cars at 300k the civic will still kick ass

Both Honda and BMW seem to be at the top of their game when it comes to making their version of what a performance car is in 2023 but I have a hard time believing prospective Type R and M2 owners are in the same camp, the driving experiences on offer just seem so vastly different.

I would take M2 without a single doubt. G87 will be significantly faster on any track.
Civic as good as is were not suggesting that a potential M2 buyer is going to think "no i'll go for the Civic instead"?
Can't wait for BMW to make the M2 badge black. Game over in its class.
I’ve never seen a more divided comment section and fan base. This guy has legit sparked a war between fanboys💯❤️🔥⚡️⚡️⚡️
Would go for type r. It’s lighter and feels nimble. You can only overcome so much weight with hrspwrs
Type R
I will have your unusual alternative please it’s a lot better built..not to mention it wins hands down on looks next to the shoe box odd shape of the BMW with zero styling…
No wonder John Cena daily drives a Type R.
I take RWD all day long. There is a reason you don't see FWD in the top teirs of racing.
The Civic wins straight out of the gate on looks alone. BMW has battered the new M2 with an ugly stick somethin' fierce
In Australia, the M2 is almost 2x the cost of the Civic Type R. I know which one I am going for.
You'd end up paying the same for the Type R anyways. I'd prefer the Acura Type-S personally because I don't care for the red interior.
It's the difference between and track/drivers car or a rowdy street powerhouse of a car
