What did you pay for your FL5?

[spiff72]

What made you get out of the Golf R if you don't mind me asking?

After 2 years I had too many warranty issues:

• Intake manifold “flapper” actuator
• Steering wheel replaced to resolve constant errors from the Travel Assist and Emergency SOS system. This issue had resurfaced and they were still working on troubleshooting
• Both mirrors needed replacement because the R logo puddle lights looked like the R graphic was melting away
• The front and side parking sensors stopped working with no solution found yet
• Infotainment sluggishness - it took a good 30 seconds before it was responsive enough to turn on heated seats

The car was otherwise a blast to drive (even though it was a DSG). I was just uncomfortable with the prospect of a car with this many ongoing issues when it would go out of warranty.

I traded a 2018 Accord Sport 2.0T 6MT for the golf R 2 years ago, so the CTR feels familiar - down to the chime when u get in.

CTR is much more bare bones compared to the Golf R (no heated seats, parking sensors, HomeLink mirror, etc), but less to go wrong!

$2000 over MSRP in Socal for a 2024 Black Pearl. They wanted $20k over originally. I went for it since it's about equal to MSRP from out of state + shipping fees

Great price. You mind sharing which dealer? Thanks

I was able to Snag a 2024 Championship White (really wanted Crystal Black Pearl) for MSRP, only went for it because my girlfriend whom has many dealer connections got me that price, otherwise I was looking at 3-10k over for other dealerships. I’m thinking of also getting their 7 year warranty since they offered it to me for 50% off. This is again all thanks to my lady, so much love to that woman for helping out since I really wanted to get the FL5 before my birthday and before I deploy.

$200 stickers? Do they just say "Please don't steal this car, or else..."?

Disabled the Honda Nav in preparation for a trip tomorrow where I'd like to run Waze. I noticed in the dev menus that there were ways to force the audio codec, enable additional ones, etc

I paid MSRP with no extras for a CBP. The only thing is I had to finance through Honda credit but can pay off with no penalty on the first payment... whenever they decide to send me an invoice. I looked at two others the day before, a BB and SG and both were marked up $10K but was told they can work with me on it ....

Carplay is a lil faster after I disabled honda nav. Where were the codecs at?

Just wanted to follow up here — don’t ever do business with these people. They took a deposit, we had financing set up, then they sold the car to someone else. Bunch of scumbags.
