2023 Honda Civic Type R vs. 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit vs. 2022 VW Golf R

3rd GRC

HIGHS: Mechanical tingles, unfiltered engine note, direct shift action.
LOWS: Stiffest ride, smallest back seat and cargo space, least nice interior.
VERDICT: It doesn't happen often, but occasionally a great car finishes last.

2nd Golf R

HIGHS: Quietest, smoothest ride, most features.
LOWS: Least engaging to drive, too-large shift knob and vague shifter feel, maddening interior controls.
VERDICT: Mature, with a wild side.

1st CTR

HIGHS: Best steering, handling, shifting, and seats; livable ride quality.
LOWS: Light on features versus the Golf, noisy over the road.
VERDICT: Unfathomably great, with no "for a front-driver" qualifier needed.
