I won't go so far as to call people delusional. I'm just going to be positive and say that we have a lot of people with a lot of hope, myself included. But I'm a bit more realistic and don't expect a production car till after mid October at the earliest. November - January is probably more...

Been randomly checking #fl5 on Twitter. This one came up: One thing that stood out. Japan dealers don't expect cars delivered till later this year and early next year. That's for the initial allocation. Likely we might see something similar or even later if this is true. :( Open the link and...

I've only seen the Japanese version of that. Where is that from? Basically it talks about all the changes.

Am I the only one drooling over that carbon fiber wing? Weaving the red in there is pretty awesome and ties in to red accents. Too bad it'll be overly expensive. I'd say if the dealer manages to put it on the car, I'll end up paying for it. I love unique things like these. Though probably not...

So dealers already have access to that deposit system and can enter? I'm guessing it's dealers only? Just trying to understand what the heck is happening. I know my dealer is just trying to figure out how to make the most money out of this. Wonder if they're just using their own employee info...

Anyone notice a hose under the left side? Again. Really hard to wrap my brain around it. I wish it's something to do with reducing turbo lag but I don't see much hardware there. What if they're trying to cool it with water to reduce heat coming from the turbo?

I think we need an FL5 order swap trade section. I've been thinking that if I don't get CW, maybe someone else is looking to trade if the dealer would allow. I'll take grey reluctantly but red is so far not my thing. Other colors not coming to Canada but I'd be okay with blue and would very...

That's interesting because they produced in UK but then was behind by 3 months compared to US?

Article suggests the car is lighter than FK8. That's really encouraging given the extra power and improved suspension and body rigidity. Previous article also said the hood is aluminum and hatch is composite to reduce weight. The new Type R has a 35mm-longer wheelbase, and while it is...

I would like to see heated seat and steering wheel too. Also ventilated seats would be nice. I've gotten too used to these comfort items in our Hyundai. Lol But also, I've been debating the winter beater cus reading up on how special this car will be, I'm starting to feel bad thinking about...

Time to stalk this guy! ?

Don't want to get off topic here but just to quickly chime in, I had K20A and had occasional 2nd gear grind

I would never consider this car a straight line beast. I'd buy different cars if I cared more about power. Based on Japanese interviews and materials (thanks google translate), when they designed the car, goals in their mind were not exactly measurable. They wanted to bring that feeling, that...

There's some interesting info in that article! Here it is translated via Google lens

This is so nice! Would also be nice to get the +R gauge cluster with normal entertainment display. Doesn't seem possible at this point.

Anyone played with AR mode yet on their phone? You can plop the car in your driveway if you wanted. You can also put it on your bed if you're into that kinda thing :p

Oh man! This is truly exciting! I know it might not help with numbers but love how this last ICE Type R is sticking to Type R roots and going out with a JDM bang! Honda...again...take my money!

I agree with this. I'm happy to see this design. It works for my lifestyle and preferences. I always said to myself that I love the FK8 but styling could be toned down with better infotainment plus getting rid of those cheap wheel buttons and it would be perfect. Now they've done that and more...

@jinnrice Honeycomb is part of the seat perforation design. I thought perforation meant some airflow but doesn't seem like that's a thing. I would want heated seats but knowing this is still some kind of fabric mimicking sway, at least it won't be as cold as leather or synthetic leather...

Sad we always lose out on blue! I'm not into Red so my preference is CW followed by SG.
