  1. Official CHAMPIONSHIP WHITE FL5 Type R Photos Thread

    I mean, valid? But if it makes him happy, who cares :p I remember seeing a slammed and stanced Type R (FK8) about a year after they came out, kinda made me sad
  2. Crowd sourced FL5 Type R vehicle/dealer markup map

    Hi @dng , I sent you a PM with some questions if you don't mind, but nbd if you're too busy to reply. Thanks!
  3. Making this car more raw?

    I know you said "reliable", otherwise I would suggest you try a Mini Cooper JCW at some point, see if it gives you the experience you're looking for. I'm not a Mini guy at all, can't picture myself driving one, liking one, etc., but they're highly reviewed and a couple hundred pounds lighter. I...
  4. Making this car more raw?

    It's really quite simple, someone just needs to make a 4-door Caterham or Elise 😝
  5. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    I wish I could get the raw data from that site vs the map-based version. Anyone connected with the guy that put it together?
  6. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Does the side bolster get worn down on these seats? I saw a Type R at CarMax that looked pretty rough. 24k miles in 2 years, and CarMax still wanted like $45k for it
  7. What did you do to your FL5 today?

    Yo, those are wild! It's almost impossible to tell from the pictures that you've added anything. And you were right when you said they weren't cheap :eek:, but they definitely look great!
  8. Making this car more raw?

    This is one of those moments where I feel that a test drive is in order before making a decision. I found the manual in the M2 (G87) that I drove to be quite lackluster, and the clutch engagement made me feel like a terrible driver. An aftermarket shifter upgrade would be a must for me - I...
  9. Making this car more raw?

    I just had a revelation, buy a used EK9!

    What's the latest on the cars from the Lyra Leader?
  11. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    Yeah, rear vents and USB, so silly that they delete these things when they're already producing them, on the top-tier trim, no less
  12. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    I just had the thought of drivers moving them who can't drive stick, grinding gears before it officially hits the shores 🥴
  13. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    This is honestly a relief for me. I didn't want to have to fork out the dough and buy a potentially marked-up '25 because it was the last year. Hoping I'm in better financial shape next year to buy a '26. I hate the idea of making payments on what ultimately will be an "optional" car purchase...
  14. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    I just drove by a dealership yesterday that had 3 on the lot!
  15. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    I wish we had the same thing where a dealership has 2-3 Type Rs (I've seen some with multiples of the Integra Type S) so we can go below MSRP for once, but that's dreaming for me. It seems that Honda has done a better job with more evenly distributing Type Rs vs the ITS, from what I've seen anyway

    That ship better not pull a Felicity Ace, I'm just sayin' https://www.motor1.com/news/578164/cars-destroyed-felicity-ace-sank/
  17. Current FL5 Market

    Back to the current FL5 market, $5k markups can be found everywhere, but I think $1-2k should be very doable if you walk in ready to make a deal that day. I think I'd be ok with MSRP+$500 for a tint or something, maybe that and door edge guards.
