Backup plans - what's yours?

Major lurker here, I have a few deposits in at dealerships around the GTA for the FL5 but after reading here and seeing the ITS spy shots, bit the bullet and put 2 deposits in at 2 Acura dealerships. With all this said and done, I feel like I’m just leaning on grabbing my buddy’s EP3 at his shop. Lol.

I'm pretty sure nobody here has driven the FL5, yet some people talk like they actually know how it drives and "feels" like.

It isn't hard to project.

Nice! I hope the lists are too long yet? What # did you get and if you don't mind me asking which dealerships?

Trying to keep a mental note of how the ITS is tracking within our region.

it’s a shame the only way to get a 6spd touring hatch is in sonic, black & white

Yes that was baffling to me. And then the Type R in Canada = no boost option. Weird stuff, this color.

The X3 M40i would destroy most sports cars in a similar price range.

$60k new and easily acquired without markup. So basically the price of a CTR, GRC Morizo, lol. It would murder them all in a straight line, consistently.

Not that I care. I’d still choose a CTR at $60k because SUV’s are stupid.

Well its kind of a moot point because the Camaro would do the same.

I mean its really not that much of an accomplishment to find a car that can murder the CTR and GRC in a straight line Straight line performance and turbo 4 cyclinders do not mix, lets be real now

Good for the environment too

Speaking of which, I thought this was pretty cool for those VW/Audi guys out there.

If only the MK8R didnt have so many fucking issues. Maybe Ill consider it when they do a MK8.5R. last ICE VW R.

Beta Stage 1 tune for unlocked ECU, stock + Intake only 365WHP / 375WTQ.

1le Camaro can be had for under 40k new and murder it on a strip or the track.

Yeah, but I’m talking about a big heavy SUV. I was referencing the post where X5M was being compared. Point I was making was that you need neither X5M nor X3M to destroy most sports cars with an SUV because X3 M40i will do just that under $60k.

For all the peeps considering hyundai... I just got myself an i20n and I'm seriously impressed for probably half the price of the fl5...

We dont get any cool foreign cool cars. We do get dozen flavors of chargers and mustangs.

Would you guys consider the new RS3, if it meant losing out on the manual?

No, I'd just buy a Golf. Which I also wouldn't buy.

If you guys have an option of getting a summer only fun car, would you buy the S2000 or the BMW 128i/135i ? Or something else? Keep in mind, budget is a factor here and you cannot spend Porsche money cus you don't have it

S2000, but I'd honestly pick an MR2 Spyder and either swap it if you want more power or just OEM+ if you want a cruiser. Aside from the stock seats, I find it much nicer to live with. Being a lot cheaper helps too, but it depends on what you're looking for.
