![]() New BBS forged wheels shave another 18 pounds of unsprung weight. Yes, there’s added road and tire noise as a result, but it’s much less of a negative in this car, where you want to feel at one with the road. For example, 28 pounds of sound deadening material is removed, amplifying the engine and exhaust noise inside the cabin over that of a regular Type R. The Type R Limited Edition keeps most creature comforts, while chopping weight (50 pounds total) in places that enhance the driving experience. This just made the car annoying to live with on a daily basis, and the performance advantage over the M4 Competition was negligible. BMW eliminated vital parts like the armrests and traditional door pulls in search of weight savings. The idea is to take an already-superb performance car, then make it even more extreme. It builds on the refreshed and improved 2020-model-year car, making this version the most focused and dialed-in Type R of the bunch. ![]() Honda made this Limited Edition model - only 600 examples will be sold in the United States - as a sendoff to the 10th-generation Civic Type R. ![]() Limit the choice to cars under $50,000, and it wins without breaking a sweat. Short of near-six-digit sports cars and even more expensive supercars, there’s no performance car out there that is more fun to drive than this screaming yellow Honda hatchback. If I had to buy a new car today, this 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition would be the one in my driveway.
