And I am not saying it is or it isn't.
I can't speak for others who's sole vehicle will be the Type R. For me, I want a $35k and under vehicle that's manual, 25+ mpg, and fun to drive, as it will be my daily driver. My M4 is my weekend end 'fun car' (some people do Porsche, exotics, but M4 is plenty of car for me. And I don't want to spend more than $70k on a 'fun car')The Type R checks all the boxes for me for a fun daily driver. My STI is out, Type R is in.

Also, a stock M4 is slower than a 'stock' Type R around the ring. I could care less, because the M4 is still a more superior car than a Type R, and 'fan-boy' rhetoric will never be able to convince me otherwise. And I am a Honda fan.
