Which all season floor maps are you using. I do like the high coverage you have. Heard about tux mats, but the are on back order with the tariffs.

Just make a list of dealerships that may not be around a major city. If there is a CTR on hand, give them a OTD number and say we can make this deal today. Honestly, its a really easy exercise...pre-draft email or just create the same talk track when calling.

Ah, that also explains how the box seemed to be opened and then someone else added another tape over it. I ordered from AllDiscountParts, so heard they are reputable. But glad I definitely didn't pay as much from dc5 parts lol

My ITS ADS module came in today. On the box, it shows the correct model number: 39381-31M-A03 However, when I look on the actual module, it lists a different number..."39380" - is this still correct or did the store send me the FL5 ADS module?

@PointByPatrol not all heroes wear capes…this is fantastic! Who knew you can just lift the bottom seat cushion up. It will be a few weeks before I try this, but thanks again for sharing with the community!

@zumbooruk - Appreciate the detailed write-up! A lot of mods for sure. How do you feel about the shifter mod and how does it transform from what otherwise to be a steller stock shifter? I actually just ordered the ITS ADS. Just came back from test driving a modded FL5 and the ITS. Huge...

Congrats to you! STEK PPF is great, I have it on my other cars and the hydrophobic qualities are really great. Converted me from XPEL for sure. Waiting is the hardest part now...even though I basically waited for more than a year before making a decision. There is a price to pay for having...

Thank you and jealous you have two wonderful driving machines! But glad even between the two, you liked the FL5 more! I had the F87 M2C, would love to have it back in the collection one day, but at this point, why not try something completely new and go JDM. Much appreciate all your...

Wow didn't expect the higher age range. OP should have put a poll in. I have a FL5 incoming, just turned 35, so a birthday present to myself :)

TL/DR - Allocated a SGP FL5 after going back and forth between so many different cars (M2, M3, GTI, 5BW - all manual) - yes, did not stay within a certain "class" of vehicles ETA - Approx. 4 weeks - purchased from dealer group I have gotten a few cars from. Was told MSRP and no tariff pricing...

Yes, the 10% base tariff is not stackable to the existing 25%

Wow, you guys rock!

Seen so many videos where people remove the rear seat bottoms, wish there is a video to do this based on what you are saying. I need visual aids lol

Going back on topic...Since Honda did say they are holding firm on no price increases, that does bode well for the time being. As of this date, AutoTrader shows 360+ new FL5s on dealer lots. Still some opportunities to pick up a FL5 as we wait and see what other impacts we see from the tariffs...

If FL5 truly does not go into MY26, then the new GRMN Corolla takes back the mantel as the best "hot hatch". Albeit at a much higher price point... Bye bye days of "affordable" hot hatches. I remember growing up hot hatches were a commonplace for new enthusiasts.

@AspecR - thanks for the explanation. Makes sense…my only hesitation is it being FWD. but I have heard the front differential does a great job making it irrelevant at normal street speeds.

Hear that term often...what does that mean it is a FWD GT3? I have a GT3, and have been interested in the FL5 for some time. Found a nearby used FL5 that I will test drive again this weekend.

Surprised so many are leaving dealers with shipping blocks. You would think “remove shipping blocks” is on the checklist for dealer PDI

@BayouRFL5? How was your drive back in the snow with stock tires?

Congrats! Man I love stories of people getting a car for Christmas. Maybe it is all those classic holiday commercials. Go for a drive and enjoy time with your family
