Totally forgot about that. I put in FL5 values on the left and FK8 values on the right, assuming a 7K rev limit: I think the 0-60/MPG theory isn't too far off, even with smaller tires.

And 6th gear cruising fuel economy as well. Personally, I'm fine with having to shift to 3rd before 60. Shifting is fun, after all.

We'd PPF ours, so nbd

My buddy with a boosted 86 showed me these a while ago. Apparently D4S engines use the same head or something? He lost a retainer once. I guess it's a matter of taste then. I'm like the current Civic interior much more than the Corolla interior.

Most people who don't like how I4's sound that I've met have never heard an Abarth. (Not my car)

Alright, see you guys on the other side in a couple months. Crap, totally forgot about the pets thing. ??

I think that'll depend on your definition of fun. "Engagement" would be a different question altogether. As an owner of an AWD sports car with a cut-rate interior, the GRC is less appealing to me overall.

I'm not sure why you'd want to go down a narrower tire, but wouldn't you be throwing off your speedo and odometer by going to a smaller diameter tire? It's about 0.6" difference. Your speed would be 58.6 mph at 60 mph indicated.

On the IRL cars I've seen, the green is a bit more teal to my eyes, and it changes a bit depending on the light and time of day. A neighbor just got a CR-V in SGP and it's pretty interesting to looking at, but the FL Civic has much nicer lines that play with the light.

SGP is still my favorite; kinda has two characters about it: party in the light, but subtle in the dark. Shame it's the only metallic color on offer. "According to the reservation status of the F1 store manager's shop, 82% of the 80 units are white, 6% each of black and red, and the rest are...

Curious, in the eye of who? I'm sure there are some buyers who will be swung by a lap record, but I also know plenty of buyers wouldn't care if there wasn't one. For my sake (and yours, and for everyone else on a wait-list), I hope Honda keeps quiet. ?

Continued lockdowns due to outbreaks, electricity restrictions due to high temperatures and Yangtze drying up are all not helping the situation. Gotta the say, the fact that Tesla and SAIC received special exemptions from commercial energy-use limits to keep producing cars seems kinda messed...

Just hope they'll keep demonstrators on hand, which not many seem to do now.

Right, that's about what I was thinking.

We can all be happy if we pretend the FL5 MSRP is 60K USD. Or something like that. On the flip side, I think about how much the same money (adjusted for inflation or otherwise) would've bought brand-new 10 or 20 years ago, and it's pretty astounding how much of a value FL5 is at MSRP. Pay a bit...

Yes. I'll try to find the post again. Found it, third pic in the post.

Pretty sure these are real cars. Saw a post on IG last night of a CW in a showroom/display with 00006 on the dash plate, as opposed to 00000 seen on the press/pre-production cars.

Totally agree, and sadly I think most of the new options are a bit underwhelming to drive. Haven't tested an A45 yet, but I tried the current and last RS3. Definitely very quick, just not much feel. I was very happy to hop back into my Evo afterwards.

I prefer my FR cars to be lightweight and NA, so Z came off of the list pretty quickly.

Bone stock here, aside from the OEM shock tower bars. Trying to take care of my trans as much as I can , so finally putting in the heated sump after putting it off for way too long lol
