  1. Front Plate Mount Options - FL5 Type R

    I ran it for a few days then thought as some members suggested might end up drawing more attention if they thought it was a real plate and the dangers of it being lose in car. I just keep the real one handy in the car and see how it goes. I live close to the Quebec border, and they don't...
  2. Front Plate Mount Options - FL5 Type R

    It's a static-cling sticker. Like you'd get at an oil change shop reminder sticker.
  3. Front Plate Mount Options - FL5 Type R

    Trying something that may work. It technically is 'attached' to the vehicle. It's a static window sticker of the plate. Cost $12 at Vista Print. Worth a try. Will keep the real plate in the car and see how this goes.
  4. Front Plate Mount Options - FL5 Type R

    Mine came with a tow hook in the glovebox but I have been unable to find any location for it on the front. The rear diffuser has a removable section on the driver's side which is likely the hook spot.
  5. First 500KMs Driving and FL5 Track Impressions @ Calabogie Motorsports Park, Longest Track in Canada

    Just a quick note about my FRS for reference. It has only ever been a track car with full race suspension, roll cage, lots of areo, track alignment and race rubber. The 4s tires on the Civic like more heat then the temperatures and track time on Saturday would allow and I was still being...
  6. First 500KMs Driving and FL5 Track Impressions @ Calabogie Motorsports Park, Longest Track in Canada

    The day the chassis code was confirmed I ordered the plate. I am not a huge fan of personalized plates but to the laymen this one just looks normal, but if you know you know, right? ;-) I know everyone's dealer experience will differ but mine was as transparent and pain-free as possible. I had...
  7. First 500KMs Driving and FL5 Track Impressions @ Calabogie Motorsports Park, Longest Track in Canada

    I have driven a fair number of performance cars on the track over the years but unfortunately none in an FK8 to directly compare.
  8. First 500KMs Driving and FL5 Track Impressions @ Calabogie Motorsports Park, Longest Track in Canada

    Calabogie Motorsports Park, outside Ottawa. Longest track in Canada. A group track day would be awesome and I can very much make that happen. :)
  9. First 500KMs Driving and FL5 Track Impressions @ Calabogie Motorsports Park, Longest Track in Canada

    Despite a pretty rainy 36 hours I have managed to put 500KMs on the new FL5 including 100 of them on the track and thought some might like to hear my initial impressions. The chassis is superbly responsive and precise. I also have a fully track prepared and caged FRS and manage a race track so I...

  11. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Really like the way the car's curves show up in the gray and that was my first choice but the white is a close seconded.
  12. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    No idea, his lose was my gain. :-)
  13. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Kanata Honda. Charles was the Best! Think he was as excited as I was.
  14. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Took #46 home this afternoon. Was #2 on list, with potential delivery of late next summer but #1 backed away so I got the very unexpected call this week to see if I wanted to grab it. Wasn't my first choice for color but once seeing it in person there was no way I wasn't taking it. MSRP, only...
  15. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Sounds legit. Just got home from signing all the paperwork, I was no.2 on list. Mid sized Ontario dealer and they were allocated 3 cars over the 3 years, with potential for perhaps an additional few cars but no guarantees. For reference they sold and delivered 5 of the last model year CTR and...
  16. Type-R Onboard Ride Along Track Video - WITH Exhaust Sound

    Sorry for the repost. Didn't realize it was at the end of that journalist ride along thread. Just saw it. If anyone speaks Italian would be good to see if there was any new tidbits of info to gather. I could catch towards the end of it some talk of the turbos geometry maybe.
  17. Type-R Onboard Ride Along Track Video - WITH Exhaust Sound

    Been annoyed with so many videos of it driving with only lame music and not getting to hear the exhaust. Came across this review tonight on YouTube. Commentary I believe is in Italian but at least we can hear the car.
  18. Rallye Red 2023 Civic Type R in Motion

    That's Honda pro Jason you see filming it as well. Maybe he'll be posting it with audio. Fingers crossed. Need to hear more of it.
