Thanks for posting this and please follow up when you have more miles on the ITS. I still have a GR Corolla on order but, likely won’t see it until the end of the year. I also haven’t purchased an ITS/CTR yet but, that may be coming soon. Mike

^^^^ I could be wrong, but last I checked, they don’t offer power seat adapter brackets or power seat adjusters for their seats. The OP is looking for a “power” seat replacement option for the ITS seats. Mike

Hard to say. Lots of aftermarket manufacturers won’t want to deal with the liabilities associated with new/modified seat brackets/parts. I personally believe it would probably be easier to purchased the A-Spec Tech powered seat brackets and integrated them in the ITS. Mike

I believed the poll would be drastically different if the participants had to post their purchase agreements to back up their vote. I’m not advocating that but, just saying… Mike

^^^^ Me? Yes, 2024 CTR without ADM. It was almost a done deal but, the dealer has two owners and apparently one of the owners is having second thoughts. So, we'll see. I may have to get my deposit back. I'm patient though. So, I really don't care either way and have no issues walking away...

I passed on my opportunity with Carter Acura in Lynnwood as well. Granted, I passed on the ITS solely due to the forced protection package but, they are not/no-longer an MSRP dealer and this thread should be reflective of that fact. I’ve personally suspended my search for an ITS and have a...

I just saw this come up on my YouTube feed. Fascinating comparison! Mike

^^^^ But, no manual transmission. Mike

^^^^ Call and see if he'll split his commission with you if you buy the car at $10K over MSRP. 😂 I hope people aren't paying these prices.... Mike

^^^^^ It’s ironic you mention it, but yes, when I saw both the CTR and ITS in person, side by side, that’s when I realized I preferred the CTR, even with its silly wing. It’s certainly possible Honda could raise the MSRP of the CTR. I don’t believe they will, I could be wrong. Either way, at...

^^^^ Good to know. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and comparisons between the cars. I’m almost sure I have secured a CTR allocation for MSRP with a projected ETA in February. And, it’s taken a bunch of work, lol. Mike

^^^^ The only time 450HP+ makes sense in a FWD platform is….”when you live a 1/4 mile at at time”. :D Mike

^^^^ Despite financing for longer terms (72-84 months), I haven't had a car payment (or otherwise) under $1,000 a month in at least a decade. Heck, I was paying $2,500 a month on a 2014 Mazda2! Paid that one off quick, lol. It's all relative. There's really no right or wrong way.....so long...

Depends on the loan, loan structure and surprisingly, even state law. But, in my state, there are no pre-payment penalties. You only pay interest on the loan for the amount of time the loan is active, not the full term finance charges. The only drawback is that the longer term (72 to 84...

^^^^ I’m the total and complete opposite. I prefer $0 down and finance for 84 months. Ironically, I end up paying off my 84 month loans in 12-24 months. Mike

Another point to consider, if you sell to a broker (or another entity) you will not get a trade in tax credit (if eligible in your state). If you can receive a trade in tax credit, make sure your sale price to the broker is greater than the trade + tax credit. Basically, just make sure...

OP, no, do not spend the money to fix the minor imperfections. You will not get that money back. The best thing you can do with regards to negotiating your trade value, is getting quotes from Vroom and Carvana at the time of purchase, as others have suggested. Trade values as shown on...

I’ve had Bride seats in 4 of my vehicles. Really really like Bride seats. Super comfortable and come in a variety of sizes for different body types. They’re not great for a DD though, lol Mike

Very logical. Totally makes sense to me. That's precisely how I feel. However....after seeing both cars side to side, I actually prefer the appearance of the CTR (aside from the rear wing). It's looking like my local dealer is going to sell me a 2024 CTR allocation for MSRP and zero add-ons...

Yeah, but I think @ optronix comment was more referring to the rate he got vs. the rate quoted to the other forum member which was over 8% with exceptional credit while he himself (I believe similar credit) was getting 4.50%. I find it interesting that the interest rates fluctuate so much from...
