I have been patiently waiting for a new car literally was looking to buy the summer the pandemic hit. Saw no desire to by during then so waited. Have been researching the Type R for almost 2 years now as #1 choice with Mercedes CLA 45 and CT4 Blackwing as second choices. After this long a tease...

I’ve seen the G80 up close on the street and have started to change my mind. Much better looking on the street and I think darker metallic colors show it better. I don’t know enough about phone cameras or cameras in general if anyone can chime in, but I have a hunch that the lack of a real...

When in doubt ask Dr Steve Brule. Or this guy Dr Lexus

Do we know for sure this is a Type S or Type R Integra? If Type R would be interesting. And I don’t think this thing gets more HP than CTR unless It’s badged a Type R. The TLX Type S only makes only 355 hp there not gonna have it almost the same. Ya there is no way this thing will have more HP...

Has to be 4 doors.

I am capping it at 65k. Could I do more ya but do more ya but depending perspective I’m either cheap of fiscally responsible. Also I’m mainly interested in driving enjoyment, unfortunately going from Type R to M3 will also (from a lot of others even though I have not driven the new M3 for...

Well I drove the GLA 45 today. Engine is fun handling is ok. But man chassis feel was not the best but ya I know it’s an SUV. This one didn’t have the right rims or aero so I’m out. Not a bad package but I just couldn’t get over the look of a rebadged Jeep Compass. 10k markup looks pretty good...

Well STI’s before the Type R we’re the resale kings for many years, and actually only until they announced no more STIs the prices have raised(5-7k) The pandemic did not cause the value to raise much as it was always high. It is not like original STIs in America, but could be a future classic. I...

No I’m gonna sell Direct. Take cash roll over deposit from my business. Hopefully if I wait until, end of year to January we can see some 5k adms which I’m willing to do. Otherwise I’m specing another car at a dealer.

Ya the CT4 V Blackwing has been an idea of mine too, but I’ve seen ones 20 k adm a few months ago. Just looked now it appears ADMS MAY BE 5-10k. I’ve also been thinking of a new to used GLA 45 or CLA 45. I may wait but man I’ve was literally planing to buy a new car right in the spring before...

Curious coming from an ISF how the driving experience is in comparison? I know the engines aural dramatics are not gonna be close, but everything else which one is better and why?

I have been in contact with about 20 dealers through online and text. Almost seems a matter of fact no one is budging below 10k ADM. I would do 5, but a 20-30% mark up just makes me think about a CLA 45 or RS3 at that point.

CLA 45 2014-19, yes an abomination, but the new one 20 onwards I have to strongly disagree looks like a mini GT on the road. A good looking car

Ya I was considering the RS3 for a while, and granted this is not from actual driving, but many reviews just reading, but if sacrificing the manual transmission the CLA 45 is the one with the more engaging, and fun driving characteristics. If there wasn't stupid markups it would be a consideration.

Guys look at the thread with deliveries. There was hundredscif not even 1000 Type Rs sitting in Richmond CA port. I think this all very useless conjecture, if before release we already see a ton on American Shores.

This car has to be 4 doors or there would be some other options. In Chicago proper and this is my only car, I commute from City to Suburbs where my Business is. Would love a second car some day, but have a small child and not in the cards right now.

My only other option I ended up considering is the Mercedes CLA 45. It is at the high end of the budget but the most engaging car in the 4 door 45-65k bracket I could find outside of the GR Corolla and CTR. Was thinking about the GR Corolla but hard for me to get over the "Turd" shape even when...

I believe another user claimed only 38 lbs heavier.

Ya my goal for second car for that reason is either Alpha 4C or a late model Lotus Exige / Evora S. Not much else ( outside the usual suspects, Miata n Toyota 86) newish I believe to get that experience.
