I just ordered this exhaust from the website. Do you have any recommendations for aftermarket exhaust hangers? I couldn’t find any. Will the stock ones be okay? Also, I would love to see a titanium/burnt titanium exhaust tip sometime down the road. They look so good on the FK8.

I feel like they pump a lot of noise again through the speakers. I would definitely enjoy a louder exhaust note from a AWE Track version, but that's just me. Even in +R Mode, I feel like it's real quiet. And I'd also rather be sentenced to death than drive a stock Honda lol.

Do you think I’ll have to drop the sub frame like I did last time to install the front pipe?

Perfect. I went AWE on my previous generation Type R. Time to go with the track version again on my 2023 on Boost Blue. I'll wait for this one to come out :)

I haven't had any issues with my FL5 with shifting. The transmission actually feels much nicer in comparison to my old 2021 Type-R. I get no grinds, or lockouts like I used to on my old FK8. I used to get a gear grind sometimes into second gear on my 21 Type R.

These dealers are buying the cars and selling them as Certified so they can sell them with a better warranty and make more $$$ off these Type R's. Pretty smart if you think about it.

I work for a Honda dealership and I got one at 5k over MSRP. The car came in with a rock chip in it so they cut me a deal. To do the warranty work on it, they would have had to wait at least 3 months for Honda to approve the work. They were asking 10k over since I was an employee until they...

A few things I just wanted to note on before I talk about the subject, I work for a dealer selling cars. To keep a very long story short, I had and then sold my 2021 Type-R in Championship White. I loved that car and I made lots of memories with it. Some good, some bad. The timing just seemed...

I work for a dealer selling cars. Even with 800 credit score, you are still looking at a 4-6% interest rate due to inflation and FEDs raising the rates to slow down spending. 4 percent would assume a credit union, or if you are buying a car from a manufacturer that offers low financing rates...

Haha that’s what I’m saying Well, you say that but I studied the FK8 market for a long time. If you got a good deal, you always would get out with a break-even scenario worst case. I like having the comfort of having a sportier car and knowing I can get out without ending up belly up...

I think a safe assumption would be that it would stay the same. They have 3 drive modes now and the +R mode with active suspension. That was mentioned in one of the release videos I’m pretty sure

The purchase would have to make financial sense. FK8 held their value very well. I'm not saying that 50k is a lot, what I am saying though is paying 50k for a depreciating asset doesn't make sense to me. If you get can get a deal on it, you're in a better situation and don't end up belly up. I...

Everyone has their budget & an opinion. It's OK if I like something, don't like it. The same with everyone else here. I'm just sharing my thoughts on the car. But let's be realistic. Not many people are going to pay $50k for a Type-R after dealer markup. Someone whom is wealthy - maybe. Everyone...

That is true, but I am just giving a heads up getting at MSRP in these market conditions is going to be slim to none so whatever MSRP they come up with is going to be basically irrelevant. The FK8 was going for $5,000-$10,000 over even before the massive supply chain issue with the chips so this...

I work for a Honda dealer. They will not take deposits until they have something in transit, and you agree to a price. Dealers have no pricing info until they are in transit or Honda themselves advertise it. Anything less than $40,000 before tax and fees is probably not realistic. Before dealer...

All manufacturers are going away from them. They tend to not put out that much light since everything is all LED anymore. But, I do agree, fog lights make cars look more aggressive.

The FL5 does give me strong Toyota vibes!

I am going to say we are going to be around 320HP. They said they are only doing a re-tune of the engine, so it shouldn't be anything too crazy. They know we can tune the cars if we really need more speed.

Looks will always be subjective. From a performance standpoint, the car is definitely better in every way. There is no argument there

Well, to be fair, it does kind of look like the Corolla lol. It's not bad that it's revised, but like others have mentioned - the bold design, the fact it didn't look like any other cars, is what made it appeal to me personally. It's not necessarily bad, but I will review in a video format a lot...
