Actually, modded supras are ripping it up on the track. My brother is a track rat and has one with suspension mods, a tune, and a transmission reflash. It’s faster than his 991.2 GT3 RS on track. Engine is rock solid and no issues.
But yes, to your point, I’ve already planned to address the...
Thanks for sharing that! It seems like we are saying the same things. The Type R is an extremely unique vehicle that is extremely capable. The Z4 is an excellent grand tourer.
Once I address the suspension I’ll give an update to this thread. A lot of reviewers found similar issues to my experience regarding the suspension. The Handschalter edition seem to address most of the secondary motions with a revised suspension and helper springs.
In regards to styling, I...
I've always been a roadster enthusiast. I’ve owned a Honda Del Slo, an NB Miata, and 5 different s2000's at different points in my life. Two weeks ago, I purchased a used 2020 Z4 M40i in frozen grey. Some thoughts after driving my FL5 and my Z4 back to back on the same day, chopping up some...
Not apples to apples, you don’t know what the road surface was like when they did the test.
About being overly critical … I don’t take offense with others disagreeing with me but I do get annoyed when people imply that I’m not being truthful.
If you haven’t driven from CT to Georgia on the highway in the Type R, which you haven’t judging by your comments, then you really don’t have any idea what you are taking about. You are commenting on my experience and making assumptions. I’ve driven from CT to Canada, down to FL, through GA...
Great review. I installed my ADS about a month ago and my impressions are pretty much the same as yours. It's more comfortable and has better performance in the real world. However, the car is less fun. Win win situation though, worse case I'll just swap the FL5 ADS back in.
Haha, I did a rotation with her. 1 hour of talking with me (I had certain topics I wanted to touch - religion, politics, recognizing manipulative ppl,, personal safety, and life goals), half an hour of cellphone time, and a half an hour of reading.
I ordered my part about a week ago and I installed it yesterday. Tip: Go to your local Acura Store (most likely they wont have it in stock) and ask for a printout of all Acura Dealerships that have current stock. My printout showed about 8 dealerships with 1 ADS Module. Once you have called and...
I always thought the road noise was high but acceptable, until I drove into Georgia. The material they use to pave the highways created so much road noise that I had to buy earplugs for me and my 10 year old daughter.
I did the same! I sold it to a BMW dealership when used car prices were out of control. I basically drove the M3 for a year for free. I miss the heads up display, heated steering wheel, and power. But the Type R is more engaging, is more practical, and looks so much better;)
If you do go out of state post some pics. I would put a layer of painters tape on any impact areas (front facia, front of the roof, A pillars, in front and behind the front and rear wheel wells. I would then take duct tape and cover the painters tape. Painter's tape for ease of removal, duct...
Cali is a huge state, let’s say you decide to buy an FL5 4 hours from you. You may have to close up shop anyways due to commute, getting the trade in price, getting financing, and doing the paperwork. If you don't have a trade it'll speed up the process and you will have more transparency. I got...
