I often find reasons - or make up reasons - to trade in cars, but I have not and will not give this car up anytime soon. For me it's pretty simple: the car is a blast to drive, it's a comfortable and roomy daily driver and it does not need an aftermarket exhaust as the OEM exhaust is great. Also...
I decided to go with a dedicated winter setup - Sparco Pro Corsa in 18x8 +45. I had these on my Type R a few years back and really liked them.
Any opinions on tire sizes? I’m thinking either 235 40 18 or 235 45 18. I ran 235 40 18 before but I’m curious if 235 45 18 will rub at all. The...
I haven’t considered the 30 profile tires because New England winters (aka potholes) can be rough. I’m also hoping the 35 profile will give me a softer ride.
I did not. I plan to buy them before the end of November or the first snowfall - whichever comes first… i’ll keep you posted (unless you buy them first!)
Were you also considering going 265 35 19?
Interesting… not sure if I should be glad I’m not alone. Maybe the heating module is weaker for whatever reason? I’m really hoping it’s just a break-in thing
A few other people have stated this already but the rear camera is terrible compared to my old 2022 Civic Sport Touring. However I’ve gotten used to it.
I wouldn’t say the ELS is bad by any means, but I feel the Bose system in the Civic is superior. I’ve tried messing around with the settings -...
Went to my local dealer today (same dealer I bought the car from) and got quotes for a few different All Season UHP tires. All 3 quotes were for 265 35 19 tires and included a $140 alignment, which I would pass on.
Continental ExtremeContact DWS 06 Plus: $289.56 per tire, $1,431.19 installed...
I’m glad you were able to make that trip to Mexico!
Do you have any pictures of how square the tire is relative to the wheel? I’m planning on going 265 35 but it’d be cool to see how much a 275 30 protects the wheel
I had a deal on the table for an LCM but ultimately walked on Saturday - needed some more time to crunch numbers and make the financials make sense. Got a follow-up call Wednesday and picked up an LSM yesterday for my birthday. The silver is so understated but it looks incredible in person. No...
Does anybody have good pictures of the red interior? I’ve been anti-red since I saw the reveal but just saw a video that made red look pretty good… I absolutely need a white exterior but now I’m torn between ebony and red interior
Likewise, seems odd. Also weird they chose Tiger Eye/Ebony instead of Tiger Eye/Orchid.
The only appealing one is LCM/Red but the red is just really off-putting… especially the strip above the glovebox
Just got an update from my dealer and they are saying the initial color options are as follows:
Tiger Eye Pearl/Ebony (50)
Liquid Carbon Metallic/Red (50)
Apex Blue Pearl/Orchid (50)
Majestic Black Pearl/Ebony (50)
Can anybody else confirm?
My buddy has a Tiger Eye Pearl TLX Type S - it’s really a beautiful car. However it’s a little big for my taste and the interior is incredibly cramped. Plus the fuel economy is atrocious in the city… but who cares when you’re spending $55k+ :D
Straight line speed should be similar but it really...
