  1. Washington Volk Racing CE28N-Plus 18x10.0 +40 in Mag Blue (God Spec)

    Well… we did the thing. We bought a house. It’s pretty sweet, charming, probably haunted, and it now eats all the money. So it's time to part with these. I purchased the set from lmtlsauto in June of 2024 and they have never been mounted. - Forged Monoblock - Face 3 - Exclusive Sizing - Clears...
  2. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    From what I understand, it's a manufacturer defect but who really knows. I had it replaced and am now at 6500 miles with no issues.

    Just purchased my set in mag blue! 😁
  4. Spoon Wheels with 275/35/18 Advans

    Wow, they look absolutely fantastic! Definitely a slight old skool vibe. Love it.
  5. Exclusive Batch: Volk Racing CE28N-Plus 18x10.0 +40 (God Spec)

    These are fantastic. I think this just solidified my wheel choice. I would love to see the mag blue on a crystal black car.
  6. Borla ATAK Exhaust for FL5

    It really does sound good, but I can't get over the way it looks. :(
  7. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    So, according to the parts manager, no "updated tank" exists. The part numbers are identical for both the Type R and Type S. The tank is manufactured in England, and there appears to have been some sort of spotty production flaw. Honda is aware, but has yet to issue an official recall.
  8. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    I'm not quite sure yet. That is just what the tech relayed to me over the phone. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get some additional information regarding the "updated" tank.
  9. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    I absolutely agree. I will be picking up the car and bringing it back to my home until the part is in.
  10. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    Well a little update. Just took it in today and was told by the master tech that Honda is aware of the issue. They are providing me with a loaner until the updated tank arrives mid January.
  11. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    Oh, I know. Just more of an annoyance really. I'm hoping it's just a bad batch during manufacturing.
  12. FL5 Coolant Reservoir Leak

    Just moved the car out of my driveway this morning and noticed coolant on the ground. I looked at the back of the tank and coolant was pooling up in the back corner of the reservoir. No mods whatsoever on the car and just turned 900 miles. This is rather disheartening to be honest.
  13. Rattle / buzzing noise driver side

    The little plastic housing around the rear-view mirror on my car buzzes as well. I haven't noticed a vibrating window.
  14. What did you pay for your FL5?

    Thank you. No trade-in involved. Oh man, when I called them about their car, they told me 25k over. I asked if they were joking, and they told me they would just let the car sit.
  15. What did you pay for your FL5?

    Thank you. Yes, it was. They started at $7500 over and would not go any lower than 5k.
  16. What did you pay for your FL5?

    After searching and checking Motoring Obsession nonstop for several months, surprisingly, I found the cheapest car in my backyard (Seattle, Wa.). I saw it in transport, made an offer, and got it for $53,334 out the door. Ceramic coating, theft protection, and all-season Type R mats added.
  17. Rattle / buzzing noise driver side

    That has been happening with my car as well. Also, the passenger a-pillar is now constantly rattling.
  18. Post your FL5 Civic Type R delivery pics! 🙌 📸

    Right on. Well congratulations on the car! Your salesman took me aside to ask if I knew you and if I too used Motoring Obsession. He said the way we went about things was very very similar. haha
  19. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Forgive my ignorance. But, are those the only colors available in the Canadian market? Or is Honda dropping the other colors?
  20. Post your FL5 Civic Type R delivery pics! 🙌 📸

    Thank you. It seems to be quite the controversial color. But I LOVE it.
