Sim games such as Assetto Corsa tend to integrate newer cars fairly quickly.

While I agree with much of what 1971Camaro said, I don't particularly subscribe to the whole "going in person" thing. I would much rather cast a wide net online, exercise patience and not appear desperate.

I'd be interested in hearing some of the reasoning behind all the China = low quality viewpoints that people seem to be having. If a product has good reviews, performs as expected (or exceeds expectations) and has a proven track record, why does the country of origin matter? If people are...

I legit did not know about the BBS/Recaro thing, thanks for providing that insight. The folks that run the FRS/BRZ/GT86/GR86 praise the Enkei RPF1’s for their value, although I’m not sure if they make a size that works for the FL5.

The point of my post was to encourage you to not to discount a product merely from its country of origin.

Being made in China does not inherently mean that it is lower quality. Also, I saw that you're interested in Apex wheels. Surprise, they're made in China. Here is a post directly from an Apex representative...

If you want to feel conflicted about every financial decision you make, be a member of both the r/personalfinance and r/cars subreddits.

Small world, I also have a 05 STI.

Refreshing to hear some actual honest praise for the Elantra N other than people just saying "lul Hyundai" and bashing on it.

There are a ton out there. I use this one here

That sounds ridiculous. Check out this thread related to incorrect factory alignment. https://www.civicxi.com/forum/threads/fl5-alignment.51672/

Yes, I too ride full MotoGP gear when I go for a bike ride. /s OP is already pretty familiar with helmets (from ADV riding) and it looks like he found a good budget-friendly helmet for his tracking application.

An aneurysm.

By the time I had decided I wanted to purchase an enthusiast car in the current economy, everything turned into basically unobtainium. Glad you had the opportunity to find one at MSRP even though you ultimately passed on it.

I've looked at both the M2 and Supra and came to the same conclusion with regards to the Supra. I did not like the lack of visibility from inside the cramped cabin and finding one is damn near impossible at the moment. I will give it credit for the B58 and the addition of a 6-speed manual. I am...

Doubt it, he seems to always talk down on every car that is not a CTR and putting the CTR on a pedestal.

We gotta be friends when we get our FL5's. I'm also in SD!

I wish I could adopt your mindset, I would be flustered from wasting a 2-hour roundtrip for nothing. Maybe I'm just jaded from all these scummy dealers.

The only line item I would agree to pay would be the doc fee, which is capped by CA law. "If a dealer has a contractual agreement with DMV to be a private industry partner pursuant to Section 1685, the document processing charge shall not exceed eighty-five dollars ($85)." Not sure what...

I have marked so many damn dealerships as Spam due to this. I have had no luck with any dealers in SD/LA. Also, what the fuck is a perma plate?
