Going to 18’s made ride about 15-20% more comfortable/less road noise. Steering got ever so slightly less precise than the stocks but it’s not a drastic difference in the least. Still corners and handles amazingly.

Ride feel any better switching to the 18s? Also do you feel your steering got a little worse going to a +45 or does it feel same as the stock setup?

Somebody knows how to use a camera! Really nice pics. Best I've seen of the CTR so far. Now Grey is my favorite. :)

DSLR or mirrorless?
I'm not sure. I had a guy who does car photography shoot it for me. Super happy with the way they came out though.

When Gran Turismo 7 only have the FK8 Type R, but you want FL5 in Photo Mode at Grand Valley Highway 1

*Grand Valley Highway 1 is a slightly altered version of the old Grand Valley Speedway with famous CA-1 landmarks

Took home this beauty last night. still very surreal that I was fortunate enough to purchase it. It was down to this color and the white one. The sonic gray Pearl just looks so much better in person than the white.

funny you say that i had the exact same experience. I usually take a while to make decisions but when i saw white and gray side by side in person the answer was clear surprisingly

I’m in negotiations for a Sonic Grey FL5. I’ve always wanted a Championship White Type R but this is the only one within reach.

I feel so conflicted as I never really felt fond of the color Sonic Grey.

I’ve gone through this thread and some of the pictures are helping.

Any other things I can look at to convince myself that I like it?
