Better than adding 9lbs of lift! Also, those figures depend heavily on speed; the faster you go the bigger difference a functional diffuser will make vs a standard rear end

Acura says the rear diffuser reduces lift on the ITS. Absent independent testing, I do take their word that it’s functional

Acura must have some of their own data on this. Whether they've actually discussed it publicly or not, who knows.

Yup, that's where I'm at with it. Just curiosity. Throttle House put down identical times with the FL5 and DE5 on their test track, which is admittedly not a very high speed track, so downforce would not come into play as much.

I already have an ITS, ahah Just learned that the FL5 creates a bit more downforce than the Porsche GT4 RS (89kg), and substantially more than the 718 GT4 (72kg) at 200kmh. This was incredibly surprising to me, as I always assumed those sports coupes would "obviously" have better aero (none of...

Can't find any official info on this. FL5 has 92kg at 200kmh. Can anyone find out from a source at Acura what the ITS' figure is?

🤣🤣 it was super weird, they told me that all 3 arrived to port at the same time and for some reason, only mine was delivered to the dealer on Thursday! Just a couple more days to go, excited for you 🙌🏻

Hmm, do any settings need to be enabled for this to work? I tried moving the switch left and right to no avail.

Finally took delivery yesterday!! What a lovely machine. Left from the dealership on a road trip directly :) has anyone figured out if there’s a way to make the mirrors drop down in reverse so you can see the curb? 🤔

Delivery delayed to 8/13-8/17 :/

Hi mate! Think your car will be in similar time to mine, 8/11-8/15. Ask for Rich if you’d like to confirm. He’s out Mon-Tue but will be in tomorrow

Just now I got a proper shipping ETA . It will land Aug 11-15. That's only 2-2.5 weeks, much better than the 30 days the dealer said it took originally. Maybe they are rushing it because it sat for so long? no clue

correct. we are cheated here in Portland. it only takes a couple more weeks for BMW to get a car here from Germany

real lmao waiting to hear if mine's been picked up, it's 30 days once it is. as of Weds, no ETA

Cheers mate. Waiting on a proper ETA. Official delivery ETA still "pending," so I only have the dealer's general estimate of 30 days. Knowing some people get them in a few days after shipment, when we're all in the same country, is kind of wild LOL

3 preorder LCMs in transit to a Portland dealer, mine included. Should be shipping out this week with delivery by end of august.

Mine’s pending shipping! Glad to have a VIN :)

Absolutely, it’s quite the car! Really glad I could drive the demo. Feels bad because even if they ship this week, it’s a full month to get the cars to Portland—BMW can get cars here from Germany in as little as 6 weeks 🤣 For context, gold cars just arrived this week, and blue arrives in a few...

this is actually crazy lol. What's the issue with this LCM paint that's causing so many delays? all 3 of my local dealer's "first 200" LCMs got pushed to 7/20-7/24.

Fair enough! Thank you for your input. I’m also wondering if it’s too fast for the street, ahahah
