  1. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    I’m personally waiting for the $100k listing from Midland Honda on this “ultra rare, once in a lifetime colour Boost Blue!”

    Brethren, let us begin
  4. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    The VIN registration doc is also now uploaded on the NHTSA website. Edit: Notice it’s dated October 16, 2025. There’s clearly a lag between when these letters are submitted and uploaded for public reference.
  5. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    And so the saga continues… someone in the thread made the point that they’re going to end up making 2 model years’ worth of cars under MY25 at this rate.
  6. Switched back to the Type R from the Type S ADS module

    Thought I’d chime in as another datapoint—I’ve been running Spoon springs and the ITS ADS for roughly 7 months (~9,000 km) now. Where I live the roads can be pretty atrocious for daily/street use, and so the ITS ADS has certainly helped with that. I also didn’t find the setup compromised when...
  7. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    He’s in Canada I believe—our VINs are far lower. MY25s are in the low-mid 200s currently.
  8. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    Wow, they’re really pushing them out—so late into the year too. They usually switch over to the next model year by now.
  9. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    Honda began taking orders today (albeit limited) on the Racing Black Package in Japan again following its suspension these last few months. Its price has gone up about 3% as well.
  10. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    I wanna know who was responsible for the initial assessment of demand. I feel the FK8 sold well here and we got absolutely shafted for this generation. 😭
  11. 2026 FL5 Speculation Thread

    I think some of the NADM models are built in the Alliston plant here in Canada, so I’m not too surprised those have already been renewed for MY26 along with some of the other models in the lineup.
  12. FL5 is a huge Upgrade from SI. Motion sickness tips?

    I think this is a really wholesome post lol—congrats as well on your new Type R! Earlier in June I took mine out for its first track day and managed to drive myself into some motion sickness by the end of my fourth 20-minute session out! I’m also a bit prone to it, but yeah I suspect it just...
  13. Model Year 2025 Civic Type R FL5 Shipments from Japan

    I’m curious what’ll happen—just this time last year, you let us know of the first MY2025 units on their way. We’re getting nearer to the window where we’ll finally find out what Honda plans to do with the NADM FL5 market and production for MY2026.
  14. Winter Tire Setups

    I have a dedicated winter tire setup: Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 - 235/40R18 mounted on Superspeed RF03RR in Satin Bronze - 18x8.5 +35 72.6 CB Mainly opted for this ‘aggressive’ of a winter setup as it’s my only car and I don’t commute to work or anything. I find I don’t drive too much (or...
  15. Spoon Springs with ITS ADS Module

    Just going to echo what was said above in that I don’t find the combo too soft myself. Perfect for a daily driver use case if you find yourself on some bumpy roads more occasionally than not.

    Looks like 40 for sale across Europe only currently.

    Sharing a few flicks of my car shot by the talented @midnightvisual yesterday evening.
  19. Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

    Timing is pretty in line with the two US MY25 ships that docked a week or two ago based on roastduck’s thread. Probably a few more incoming units throughout this week and the coming ones across Canada, if I had to guess.
