Thanks everyone for your help. I was able to sit in an FK8 CTR today. Was planning on taking it for a test drive too but didn't get that far.
It's a night and day difference in seat height. It immediately felt like I was sitting on the car, so I didn't want to waste the saleperson's time just...
That's what I'm thinking too, the comment on the s2k. Right now I'm not in a position to have two cars, but ideally I would have an FL5 CTR and Lotus Elise, S2000, or something more hardcore. Whereas the GR86 almost splits the difference, giving just enough practicality for a road trip or...
I'm debating between the GR86 and FL5 CTR. I've always owned RWD sports cars that sit pretty low from the factory. I love that feeling of being low, dropping into the seat, feeling that low center of gravity in a corner, etc. I'm almost sold on the CTR as I've come to terms with losing rwd...
I'm very interested to see what the production numbers are planned to be. Since we're getting a 3 year run, I figured there would be less FL5s total than FK8s, but who knows! Maybe they'll ramp up production and those 3 years will produce more than the FK8's 6 years...
For some reason I remember reading somewhere people thought this would be this last CTR. Maybe that was because it's only going to last 3 years? Do we think this will be the last CTR gen?
Also when is it going to land in the US?
Yes I am in the US. I paid a $500 refundable deposit to secure the spot. Both dealers wrote my # in line, that the deposit is refundable, the car will be sold at MSRP, and sign the receipt.
Hello everyone, new member here. Just put down two MSRP waitlist deposits yesterday, #2 and #3! Saw the reveal and had to try to get my hands on one. I was wondering if we have any idea when the FL5 CTR might start arriving in the US? Maybe it will mirror when the FK8 CTR arrived back in 2017...
