What makes you say that?

Idk the FK8 had some minor tweaks before the main refresh. They added a volume knob, a glove box light, and some ambient lighting in 2019. Also there were changes to available colors several times over its run. Maybe there's a chance urban gray comes to the Integra? Most probably no real changes...

The Acura website says 2025 Type S coming this summer, so I imagine we should see some info within the next month or so. My local dealer said the 2024s he currently has on the way are probably going to be the last round of 2024s, and after that he'll start receiving 2025s.

Looks great! Are you on stock suspension?

Looks like the launch is imminent, AWE just posted a teaser video yesterday. Unfortunately it looks like it eliminates the valve.

Oh are there recurring issues? Like what?

Any news at all on these?

I think it's possible that some minor updates are made. The FL5 didn't have any but the FK8 often had random year over year updates with features. Like they added a volume knob, added Honda Sensing , added new colors, new brake disks, etc. A 3k price increase would be nuts honestly. I know it's...

Looks really good but I wonder how much the sound changes when the valve is closed? I looked at the FL5 version and both the valved and unvalved sides look really similar.

Have they shared any details on what's actually different about the knurling? Any pictures of the differences?

Honestly it would be nice if they could just offer the knurling as an option on the wheel. I think most folks who aren't doing hardcore track work probably don't benefit from it. A ton of folks run wheels like the RPF1 which have no knurling and I haven't heard of anyone having issues with tire...

Good to hear, sounds like Socal dealers are a lot more reasonable than the Norcal ones I've talked to. Although I literally had a Socal Honda dealer tell me I couldn't sit in an FL5 because they didn't want me to "get it dirty". Never walked out so fast.

Meanwhile in California a dealership recently told me this car is never going to reach MSRP and they want $7500 over

Even if it's using dynamic ride height as in it estimates tire load by measuring ride height changes, I'd still imagine ride height changes don't translate to load in the same way if spring rates are now different. For example, with a stiffer lowering spring, the same amount of load on a corner...

Saw this article today, and they mention how the car has ride height sensors, and the data is fed into the ABS module and the ECU to calculate tire load and brake vector accordingly. So does that mean lowering the car could mess with the brake vectoring tuning...

I really don't think Acura would spend the money to develop this car only to sell 7200 units of it. That's less than a single year of GR Corolla sales. My theory is first year was hindered by supply chain planning, and once 2025 comes around they'll sell more. They've also tested the market out...

I wonder if he said that just to convince you to buy a 2024? Regardless if he’s right, they better be adding back some features they decontented with such a big price hike. Although they did hike the FL5’s price by 1900$ for 2024 while making zero changes.

Is that the brushed clear? That finish has been growing on me, plus it'll never show curb rash lol

I've been watching the car delivery tracker and pretty much all the new cars are going to the Northeast and Florida at the moment. Hoping more will come to the west coast as well! I hope someone can shed light on how these shipments are being allocated region wise as well.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reason it was omitted was part shortages. The car came out mid 2023, so part contracts and manufacturing were probably being set up well in advance and at that point they might still have had shortages. That's why I'm guessing that the 2025 might have some of these...
