In this thrilling episode from Hagerty, they tackle the age-old question of the ideal two-car garage, but with a twist: both cars must have the same engine. Now, you might think this limits the options, but let me tell you, the choices are more exciting than you could ever imagine.
First up, we have the Honda Civic Type R. Now, this hot hatch may not have the same prestige as an Aston Martin or a Ferrari, but don't let that fool you. With its 324 brake horsepower and 310 foot-pounds of torque, this little beast packs a punch. And despite its size, it still manages to nail the essential touch points that make it a joy to drive every day. Plus, those fantastic seats are as supportive as the carbon back ones in a BMW M3. It's a hot hatch that delivers on both performance and comfort.
But wait, there's more. Introducing the Aerial Atom 4R. This track-focused car is a sight to behold with its wild exoskeleton design. Starting at £78,000, it's powered by the same engine as the Civic Type R, but here's the kicker: it cranks up the power to a whopping 400 brake horsepower and 369 foot-pounds of torque. With its Bosch ABS system, variable boost, and seven-stage variable traction control, this car is a true adrenaline machine. And let's not forget the added bonus of the Olens TTX 36 dampers and the Arrow package for improved aerodynamics. It's a car that demands attention and delivers an exhilarating experience on the track.
Now, imagine having both of these incredible machines in your garage. The Civic Type R for your everyday drives, providing comfort and performance, and the Atom 4R for those days when you want to unleash your inner speed demon on the track. It's a dream combination that offers the best of both worlds. And the best part? You don't even need the same engine stipulation to make this garage a reality. These two cars alone would make any petrolhead's heart race and provide endless hours of driving pleasure. So, if you're looking for the ultimate two-car garage, look no further than the Honda Civic Type R and the Aerial Atom 4R. Buckle up, my friends, because this is a ride you won't want to miss.
