  1. Thoughts on FL5 vs FK8 (by savagegeese)

    I was not a fan of the FK8 styling when it was first released, however it grew on me a bit over the years but I never pulled the trigger. I almost purchased a lightly used FK8 a few months ago as I was growing impatient with the FL5 and not satisfied with my Si but the dealer still wanted near...

    Now that I have both shifters I can confirm they are the exact same height so I believe the aluminum tear drop knob appearing shorter is just an illusion.
  3. 🤩 I can't stop smiling since Type R FL5 was delivered to my house

    Yeah that pic looks similar to mine with the blocks on. Def have that checked out!

    As an owner of an 11th gen Si for almost a year and 10k daily driven miles, I completely disagree. Comfort mode in the FL5 is softer than Si stock, but not by much. Matt Maran in his video review agrees.

    Happy ending! Another manager called and said I could pick them up. Thanks to everyone's support on this one and shout out to Autonation for coming around and providing a very fair deal on an FL5 in this crazy market.

    Oh they're already fighting back. The salesrep and floor manager at the time of sale have denied my pleas so far. We'll see how things go with the GM.

    You are correct and none of these are options, they're 100% accessories I paid full price (and installation) on. With that said that same story was used by the sales manager I had been speaking with. He stated that when you buy a truck with aftermarket wheels and/or lift kit, its not common for...
  10. Some Weekend Canyon Runs in my FL5 After XPEL & Ceramic Coat

    I'm down next weekend for sure. Stayed around SCV so bouquet canyon, little tujunga, lake hughes, and soledad but I'm willing to travel too.
  11. Some Weekend Canyon Runs in my FL5 After XPEL & Ceramic Coat

    Had Xpel ceramic tint completed on Friday and spent the weekend doing some local canyon runs at light/moderate speeds, generally keeping things under 4k rpm. Despite driving it at 6/10ths, came away impressed overall and the car exceeded my expectations. Few notes from the journey (probably...

    No survey taken yet so I'm good there but I'm almost positive I threatened them with the negative/review survey and a call to Honda. That was about the moment the manager, who had kept his cool prior became very agitated/defensive and more or less ended the call. With Honda customer service...
  13. Backup plans - what's yours?

    Had the chance to drive a Supra for a week or so. Loved the performance and styling but the poor visibility, claustrophobic cabin, and decrease in utility were deal breakers for me. Some canyon runs in the FL5 this weekend validate those thoughts. I can't recall a car this much fun to drive and...

    I went back to the dealer and spoke with the sales manager and despite pleading my case (without going full Karen), they refuse to give me any of the OE replaced items. I went home and called Honda corporate and spoke with a rep that confirmed I'm not entitled to keep any of the parts and the...

    Actually delete - I'd rather not muddy up this thread with more ADM talk, we have another area for that.
  16. Transport Blocks PSA: make sure your dealer removes suspension transport blocks before taking delivery!

    Curious did the FK8 ship with spacers? Just curious as to the validity of the dealers claim of no other Honda's have ever had them.
  17. 🙋🏻‍♂️ Media Launch Questions for savagegeese?

    Sucks but your right. Honda Corp won't do a thing in regards to ADM which is rampant atm. Subaru is about the only car company I know of that seems very active with their dealer network in curbing ADM.

    Prefer Socal area pickup but would consider shipping if the price is right, shoot me a pm, thanks.

    Wow this is fantastic! I absolutely love your in-depth reviews and your opinions of this car hold a lot of weight for myself and throughout the enthusiast community. Congrats on your allocation and I'll look forward to all your FL5 content for sure. I picked mine up a few days ago and the hype...
