Interesting poll if not a bit premature. I mean there are probably only a handful of people that can provide a credible response. Acura has somehow only managed to deliver a handful of the 200 presale cars so how many people can really answer - other than what they THINK or what they have been...

I think it's as much about how its tuned as anything else. Our MK7.5 Golf R will absolutely pin you back. In fact, I'd say 0-50 or even 60 is its performance sweet spot for daily driving. When I test drove the ITS, the fact that it was turbo'd didn't jump out at all. I thought power delivery...

I thought the same thing - I was surprised that it was the only accessory that looked poorly done. Either they were installed incorrectly or they're not cut correctly, too small. You're right though, a replacement cover not a stick on is the way to go.

IF you could trust that an experienced tech would perform a careful hand wash, clay and a single stage correction prior to ceramic coating and took wheels off and did them, etc. then $995 would be reasonable. I suspect it gets a run through the automatic car wash and, as you said, a wipe-down...

Thanks! My dealer insisted they were body colored - which should have immediately confirmed to me that they were black! :rolleyes:

Are the mud flaps (or whatever Acura calls them) body colored or gloss black?

Thanks, I had this exact same question. I'm almost more concerned about having the whole bumper assembly taken apart on a brand new car just to change a badge than I am about paying the dealer to do it. I didn't take a very close look when at the dealer buts nice to hear from someone who has...

Any of you have a actual ITS pict in LCM?

Test drove the ITS today. I'll try and NOT repeat what every other review has said and focus on some areas where I might have differing perspectives or impressions. Car had 25 miles on it, was spotless and in the showroom. They took it out for the test drive and put it back after. I drove it...

With kids, definitely the ITS. The GT350 is a great car but in my opinion is not a great daily and would be an even worse family car.

What's crazy about this list is that you would think the prices would be consistent and labor rates would be whatever the time/cost model says. Almost every one of these lists that get posted is different. Some dealers are only charging $2,000 for the wheels, yours is almost $2,500, mine is...

I know right?! My salesman txt'd me Friday, said they got it, and were installing accessories. No test drives until tomorrow (19th). They're closed today anyway. I suppose each dealer does what the want (somewhat).

I think it would be easy if they were all lined up and you had the luxury of choice! Really hard to tell without seeing and we haven't seen a single picture of Liquid Carbon, Performance Red, or Lunar Silver. I was set on LCM because they had an Type S MDX in the showroom when I stopped by...

I think those production numbers seem possible but I don't necessarily believe you can take a general business prediction of 36,000 cars (a guess on their part) along with another guess of the take rate for the Type S being 10% to mean they'll only produce 3,600 cars. By that logic if Integra...

My dealer was quick to point out those prices that were floating around on that list were just the parts prices and not installed. I think they wanted roughly $2,700 for wheels w/tpms with mounting and balancing.

Interested to hear whether you guys are willing to pass if you can't get your top one or two picks for ext/int colors. I put a deposit down over a month ago, but the dealer still doesn't know exactly what they have coming in. They'll have 6 coming in after the demo car (already here). For...

Agreed. Depends on your use. My GT350 has the +$$ optional leather-trimmed sport seats (heated and cooled) and they have more than enough bolstering and with alcantara on most of the seating surface there is zero sliding. Super comfortable for the kid and wife. If I tracked the car regularly...

My salesman gave me a funny look as if to say "why else would we have a demo vehicle!?". Suffice to say they are allowing test drives.

I've removed a few in my day but I may pass on this even I if the dealer was doing it. I'm pretty picky and most modern bumpers have so many clips and attachment points I'd be worried about it going back together perfectly. I've always found engine parts - even major ones go on/off easier...

I have no reason to doubt your dealer nor do I have a shred of insider knowledge but common sense suggests that I would be very skeptical of them being "very confident". There are roughly 250 or so Acura dealers in the US so why would Acura seed each of them the 4-6 cars most of them seem to be...
