#elh0102...wow..I just retired and my plan is to do just what you decided not to do... The ITS and my GT-R should cover my ZO6 purchase late next year..I got to have a V8 back in my life before its too late to enjoy it...and its a way to down size at least thats how I'm pitching it to the...
My 2017 Ford Focus RS had over 90K plus hard miles and I needed a new daily, GR and R were both above MSRP...So up popped the ITS, looks and decent performnce for what it is..no brainer.. 24k+ miles later and I still enjoy wringing ITS neck
Congrats...My wife has a Black MDX Type S also...But drives the Hybrid Limited Taco more often...go figure..love Black but its a major pain chasing dirt...Enjoy the New rides
Type R was built with track use in mind not so sure that was Acura's intent...Acura just stole the drive train and gave it a better looking body (jmho)....track junkie would be better served with a Type R and again jmho....
V8 will be missed...I want from a V8 LS7 to a twin turbo V6. 7K redline of the LS7 :D. 5 years later and I'm fighting the urge for a C8Z...OP if you're V8 fan don't do it...ITS is a great daily driver for what it is...JMHO
you need to upgrade your brake pads...OEM pads do generate a lot of dust..I run Apex brush clear wheels and with the Akebona performance pads/ceramic coating brake dust is a non issue...
