I think he meant how they drive and such. Like a race car inside in look and feel. But yeah, didn't sound like the Type R's were ever anything but a nice place to be. Probably a little stiff and bouncy. Noisier, feelier. When that's all done well it works out to be my ideal DD. The car I drive all the time might as well be the fun one - make time spent commuting, running errands something to look forward to.
You always hear "I love driving stick but eh, I do too much city driving/commuting so I'd rather have auto." I don't doubt someone when they say that but I've found it exact opposite. Even in bumper to bumper traffic, seems like fiddling with a stick helps pass the time and miles (or feet really, in that circumstance.) The more enjoyable the shift the better.. I hear there's nothing better than CTR. I've only shifted one around at an auto show. Felt good, I expect like most vehicles (Hondas especially it seems) it will feel a lot different while driving.
