Just spoke with my dealer, and Acura shared yesterday that there will be a reservation system similar to last year's that will go live by early May--if it's like last year, they'll announce a date when the ordering system will go live a few days in advance (so it probably isn't tomorrow), and...
The accessory list that was leaked was out of Canada, and they wouldn't have the heated wheel listed since it's a standard feature--Acura has a heated wheel, they want your money, they'll make it an available accessory for the US for sure.
Uh, can we discuss this somewhere a little more private? We've got Canadians on here and they may not know that we've got a bit of an obesity epidemic down here.
You've now got me interested in those heated rear seats though--they advertised them specifically in last year's press release, but this year's press release specifically doesn't say...
That release doesn't say anything about the heated rear seats (so it's possible) but it does say that they get the heated steering wheel--which tells me it's something that those of us in the US will be able to get (somehow, some way).
I thought the RSX-S gauges were darkish grey/red on white, I didn't realize it was actually silver--I do like that look, I think I'd have trouble reading the illuminated red on silver gauges in the TLX, but then again, with so much of the key info displayed on the HUD or the digital screen in...
Totally agree--hiding all the lines and contour with a dark color seems wrong, they really pop on White... but if I have to go Ebony on the inside, White on the outside seems just a little too conservative.
I'm coming to the conclusion that Honda mishmashed so many interchangeable parts between the Type-R and Type-S to drum up aftermarket activity or rivalry--you'll have Type-R owners trying to get the Type-S exhaust, and Type-S owners trying to get the Type-R seats and gauge software. Things may...
I'm leaning toward Performance Red as well! But I'd go the Ebony route for interior. I like the A-Spec + Tech's red interior with the Platinum White Pearl exterior, and I'd gladly get it again, but the Type-S red seats just have too much black from what they've shown so far. Also, my son (the...
Totally agree as to the mark-up policy, but as for your financial condition, I have a hunch we're going to need to start producing tax returns soon so get those ready. Until then, you're just another menace.
(I kid, I kid)
I think they could've done something really cool in the analog department--they really hyped the notch in the liftback being taken from the past Integras, an analog gauge similar to the Type-R or RSX Type-S (blasphemy, I know) would've gotten some of us excited. That said, I was personally...
Do you happen to remember where you found this photo? I can't seem to find any of the Type-S in Performance Red. Now that I'm really looking, I'm wondering if it could be a Photoshop job on one of the other colors, but hoping to see more in red, if possible. Thanks!
I got my A-Spec + Tech in June, fully intend to trade it with ~1900 miles (WFH) providing the driving reviews for the Type-S are positive (and they will be, Honda/Acura is only going to invite their biggest fans to test this car early)--so if your needs are all squared away, just a question of...
