Same here.
Purchased a new 1998 Acura ITR and regret selling it after only one year. Waited 18 years for another new Type R.
CTR purchased 7-31-2017 with 1,857 miles.
I saw your car this afternoon. My CTR was in for the first oil change and to fix a brake noise coming from the front brakes. They removed a rock from the backing plate.
I believe it was a day-one quality issue coming out of the Swindon plant. Probaly a process setup, calibration of equipment or training issue to mention a few. It could have been one person not properly setting everything up during the alignment process.
Tried to ignore it during the first...
