Yep they made an order for the tail light, no issues. Back order until April but that’s no big deal. Thanks

No, it was on facebook marketplace with something along the lines of "potentially new allocation, please contact for details." I was going to share it but the post was deleted within a few hours.
Which Burnaby dealership is it?? TIA

I actually messaged that guy last night and he called me today.

He said they're looking for a valuable trade-in and they're wanting 10k over MSRP. And my favourite part was they're not selling it. Has to be a 4 year lease.

Also sadly he didn't seem very interested in my 2003 Sentra SE-R.
does he realize his email does not end with @ferrari.com

Hey guys maybe wrong place to ask, but was curious this is okay. This is the back door bottom panels. Can’t think of specific word lol. The side skirt?
Thanks!

also, not great some condensation in the rear light. That can’t be good.

the gap in the panel seems to be a design choice.. it's consistent on every car... a misalignment gap in manufacturing tends to be in the bumper hood fender area which the fl5 has been solid with but the ITS had suffered from, a hit and miss...


the condensation in the tail light is not right should be covered by warranty

Hey guys, specifically those in Southern On with cars on the road, how y'all making certain that when you wake up in the morning, or come back out of a theatre or Costco your car is still there?

You do have one of the best theft deterrents in that it's a manual car. Those of us that know how to drive stick are a dying breed. I plan to have a hidden kill switch in the car to cut the fuel pump and likely put an air tag for added peace of mind. Also it'll be in the garage when at home.

Worst dealer ever
A friend put a deposit back in 2021, marked #1 on the list. They forced him to take the refund a few months before the first type R arrive to their showroom. Call him when the car is there and asking 100k LOL

Thanks, appreciate the replies.
I live in a small town and have an older accord so never had to worry about this before.

mine sleeps in the garage, when i go to work is underground access only garage.... the only time it starts out for doing quick runs sometimes... usually our other car but if i do happen to do a quick run with it .. it's been fine...i so need to locate the fuel relay and may be take that off of i ever find myself leaving it pretty long outside... but will be kicking for a kill switch solution as well

Hey guys, my FL5 problem never ends and I need your opinion/suggestion about this matter.

LONG STORY (please bare with me):
As mentioned weeks ago, the dealership offered to handle the delivery of my car to my address which they said will be here 2 weeks max (considering its a 7-9hrs drive and same province) and I agreed as it was a long holiday and didn’t want to be a hassle for me.

2 weeks has passed and they weren’t able to deliver. Lots of calls and talks has been made, in the end they said that 100% it will be picked up yesterday or today. Unfortunately, it’s already 1300H and I haven’t had any response/update from them yet.

As I was not expecting the car to be this late, I sold our spare car last week which caused me to commute for work.

but with the strike ongoing, my problems got worst. My question is, am I entitled to ask for a compensation for this hassle or am I too di** for that?

Compensation in the form of a Carbon Fiber Wing maybe?

All seriousness, they did offer to ship the car to you which is great but going on 3 weeks now, is a lot especially considering that it's only 7-9 hours away. Personally, I would say fuck it and go get the car. Either drive it back yourself or look for a company that would do it for you. Go get your car and bring a buddy for support. Make a road trip out of it!
