What about the FL5 do you regret?

I said it in my initial post, boost blue is everywhere. I not only see it more than any other FL5 color but on everyone and their mother’s sport hatchbacks.
I HATE you can get boost in the regular hatch. There’s a couple in my city and everytime I see them I’m like “yay” a friend, then I’m like no it’s just a hatch :(

I missed that, my fault. Agree on seeing that color everywhere. A neighbor's nanny has a Sport in BB and I always double take when I see it thinking it's an FL5. That's a consideration selecting a color non-exclusive to the FL5. SGP, CBP, and RR are in the same boat; however, I don't see those colors nearly as often.

Ha! Same here!

I wave anyway, and then the driver doesn't even see me, because he or (usually) she is distracted by a phone to the face.

It's a bit depressing.

Definitely hardly ever see black or red ones. I had the choice of BB or SGP when I got mine but I already had an SGP Civic so I went with the blue.

I've got a neighbor down the street from us, younger kid that races his blue one. He's all stock. Met a guy with a grey one near me as well, all stock except his suspension and rims. I'm the only white one is this neighborhood so far.

The type R has made me pretty cynical about the whole "yay, friend" thing. Whereas in the past with my little sport hatch I'd wave to every sporty car, now I'll see stuff like visually modded (ie the exhaust, lowered, fake type R Honda logo) accords or civics and scoff.

The car only enables what's already ig 🫣
