That's awesome, you have best of both worlds with the LE and FL5. Nice financial planning, flipping LE's to eventually get one for free. I started with 18" CTR, then upgraded to the 20" BB CTR, I wanted to keep the BB CTR as a daily and the LE as the garage queen. Unfortunately, with 3 kids that was not possible.I own a LE FK8 (USA - 031) and a CW FL5. There is zero chance I would have parted with my LE if it was a requirement to obtain the FL5.
The only exception to that would be if you intended to daily drive either car. The interior improvements/ergonomics of the FL5 really do make it a better daily IMO.
I really love both but for different reasons. I personally believe the LE FK8 will end up being more valuable in the long run.
I was very fortunate to have the opportunity to profit off the resale of three LEs that I purchased for MSRP/just above MSRP, so the LE I kept was effectively “free”, other than my time invested to close said deals.
Best of luck in whatever you decide and for the record, I think the FL5 looks great in SGP.
Currently, the LE is not a daily driver, but it doesn't sit either, 11K km's in 2 years. It's just too fun to not drive and I can't justify just staring at it in my garage.
Definitely leaning towards keeping the LE and waiting for the last model year of FL5 to see if there is a LE version then.
