  1. If anyone from Honda reads this board...

    Oh please, learn how to drive a stick. It's more engaging and fun to drive. If you want everything to be easy and boring, play a video game.
  2. JAS Motorsport Civic Type R Widebody (TCR-Spec)

    So, you don't see that the fake vents have been removed and the area has been replaced with a flat, black material that is clearly not a fake vent?
  3. JAS Motorsport Civic Type R Widebody (TCR-Spec)

    I see the fake vents are covered with a black insert. So, what is your point exactly?
  4. HFP Package Coming For Civic Si and 5-dr Hatchback Models

    Painting yes but they would still be fake. Personally I don't understand the design or reason for over-the-top fake vents especially on the Type R. Why take a fast car and apply fake vents. It's the kind of thing I would expect to see on a sport edition of a cheap poorly performing economy...
  5. HFP Package Coming For Civic Si and 5-dr Hatchback Models

    Are they planning a bumper cover package to replace those awful fake vents?
  6. Civic Type R: Honda Access Parts

    I had to chuckle at the Google translation. "...pleasure and irritation."
  7. Blue Type R gotta let it go

    I wouldn't refer to your experience as a loophole. If the OP bought the car outright and does not purchase another car the tax will not be refunded, as far as I know. The warranty is usually transferable. Edit: I was referring only to sales tax. Property tax is prorated when you sell the...
  8. Blue Type R gotta let it go

    With all due respect, I passed up an MSRP simply because it was black. There are/were plenty out there at MSRP if you shopped early enough and found a good dealer. BTW, I can't say I've ever heard of anyone getting their tax refunded from the state when they resell a used car (one that has been...
  9. Another one bites the dust

    In general, the insurance company doesn't care what you paid for the car, only what it's worth. If this owner paid 10k over MSRP he/she just lost 10k plus any existing depreciation. Edit: If the car is a total loss.
  10. At last, the civic type R goes on sale today June 14!!!

    I agree, and rather it were a raw near-race-ready car similar to the Integra Type Rs. I really struggled with the decision but ultimately passed up a black one for MSRP. I could live with the car's other oddities but the bumper covers look silly and ruin the whole car for me.
  11. New ads featuring Si and TypeR focus on Honda Performance Models!

    I'm sure that was intentional seeing as they have pretty much failed the past 2 and soon to be 3 years.
  12. Civic Type R and Si VIN Decoder! Colors Revealed

    Wow, is there a way to adjust the exterior color with a color-adjust knob on the dash? Just noticing the plates have the same number, though are slightly different.
  13. Civic Type R and Si VIN Decoder! Colors Revealed

    It breaks my heart it isn't as raw and simple in design as many previous Type R vehicles, specifically the Integra. I detest the monster sized faux vents in the bumper covers. And, I agree it would be nice to have some sort of special Type R only color like Yellow which I love too.
  14. Live Pics: Civic Si Sedan @ 2017 NYIAS

    My current 2014 Civic SI is the closest I could get to my GSR. As for manuals, its the only way to go if you want the full heel/toe/throttle blipping experience. Personally I don't care about LED headlights, butt warmers, lane sensing etc. I enjoy being fully engaged in the driving experience...
  15. Live Pics: Civic Si Sedan @ 2017 NYIAS

    My '95 GSR was black... last black car I owned. I could never keep it clean and I didn't drive it in rain or snow. Even just the dust from sitting in the parking lot at work during the day would bum me out. I loved that car, wish I never sold it.
  16. Live Pics: Civic Si Sedan @ 2017 NYIAS

    Glad I'm not the only one that feels that way. The design is just fine without honking monster sized JC Whitney fake vents.
  17. Live Pics: Civic Si Sedan @ 2017 NYIAS

    I totally agree.

    The bulbous hatch a$$ looks weird on the hatch too.
