idk why honda had to intentionally put glossy there

Well now I’ll know exactly where on the seat back my son put his feet.

Sooo, no middle passenger seat (thinking carseat or kids), glossy seat backs, anything else Honda totally screw up this gen?

Could be pre-production. The emblem was also not correct on the front. I don't expect them to change this aspect of the seats from the launch video.

The FK8 didn't have a middle seat either

I have to see it in person but that looks cheap. Rather have had the matte fake carbon. Who knows till we see the production model.

Yeah, wondering why they didn't fix it between generations. It was a criticism I was hoping they'd address

Honestly, it was last on my list. I dont plan on being in the backseat and they hit on so many other things, this became an afterthought. Despite the shitty rollout, they really could not have done much better overall at this price point. The attention to detail across the board was outstanding.

I would never see the back of the seat, it is what it is, and I have no opinion either way.

Neither did the FD2!

6:50 into the video

He mentions that the plastic on the back of the seats is preproduction and it will be different from the production model. So maybe it will be the matte. We can only hope.

It really seems like a small thing, and I know I spend very little time in the back seat of my own car, but I have a 2003 mom-suv that I still park at end spots because I care about my stuff. Little things that make it easier to keep my stuff nice is appreciated

Called it.

Called it.

I misread your initial response as "things they wouldn't change between pre-production and production", but you actually meant the opposite . Good call
