I bet you can easily install a left rear seat bottom panel, probably even the seat belt too.

anyone notice some tools but no jack and spare tire in the trunk?

Oh shoot they put the leather steering wheel back!!! Lemme tell you, the alcantara wheel I have is a pain in the butt to clean, glad they went back

Oh yeah, I forgot about that option. Reminded me that I'm planning to grab a spare tire kit and a regular hatch rear mat so I can limp home if needed

That’s something I saw too, and I’m so glad they went leather. Alcantara looks cool, but upkeep sucks.

Did anyone else see the crazy battery configuration in the engine bay? Are they going hybrid?

Just looked like a battery cover to me.

Yeah it looked interesting! I don't think it'll be hybrid but looks like they moved it around to give more space in the engine bay

Hmm seems odd, maybe just the camera made it look weird.

At least US got shift lights (I hope). I remember seeing how the 2022 Si didn't get shift lights and people were livid haha

What's in that box?

 

[Boostlag]

Confirmed. Type r only shares the front door, hatch and roof from a standard civic.

 

[BackslashBrian]

What's in that box?

I think its just a large turbo inlet pipe no? Someone correct me

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Also, heated seats shown on the LHD model

Where are the buttons for that? None of the press photos seem to show it having heated seats.

Different gauge cluster for R+ mode.
