DCT? It’s now better to take the loss and sell it to Carvana/CarMax to avoid further headaches. https://www.autoweek.com/news/industry-news/a41575775/hyundai-recalls-six-models-with-dual-clutch-transmission-problems/

In the Miata world, one could buy a glass packed baffle and insert it into the exhaust tip to muffle the exhaust sound. But it only works for a single brand of exhaust. Not sure how feasible it is for Hyundai or the aftermarket to make something like this...

Blame Hyundai for making an exhaust mode that exceeds the legal limit or for not knowing said legal limit in the 5th largest car market in the world. I mean, LE‘s got to LE. He could also be a dick but if a decibel meter was used before issuing the ticket, the blame lies with Hyundai (for a car...

He can fight the ticket on technicalities. In court, LE is required to present proof that a calibrated decibel meter was used for the citation. On court date, the LE will either not show up or can’t present the evidence or that the decibel meter wasn’t calibrated recently. His lawyer also...

Returning to normal? From Reddit:

Cross post on the FL5 marketplace (Civicxi.com). I think these will look good on the 2023 Type R. It’s using the same offset and bolt pattern. Doesn’t hurt to reach more eyes. GLWS

Add lightness. As fatherpain and many have already mentioned, a set of lighter wheels and better tires. Maybe rustproofing the undercarriage so you can drive year round? And snow tires for half of the year?

Used? You should be able to find some on the marketplace shortly after delivery as people tend to upgrade to lighter 18“ wheels as a rite of passage. Won’t be as affordable as FK8 20s since the 19s will be wearing PS4S.

My kinda used-car buy. 413k miles. Replaced transmission at 315k miles. Not an ad:

You’ll have a lot of fun in the snow.

An LE FL5 will look amazing also.

Wait until the FL5 hits dealer lots later this winter (Dec, Jan); used FK8 prices should come down a little by then. Or wait until next winter (2023) until car production catches up with demand for better deals (used or new).

TBH, after driving the FK8, anything less than an LE won’t get me into the next one. I do like all the improvements on the FL5. I sense that Honda will skip the next generation after the FL5 and go straight into full electrification for the next-next CTR (~2030). It’s pointless to do hybrid due...

Juicy!

Nice setup! Fanatec with load cell pedals scratches a lot of that driving itch. I’d just go with the trade in or Carvana for less headache. Good luck on the sale.

It’s easier to find Integras for MSRP:

Drive your Si for another year. You’ve a better than good chance of scoring a used FK8 for under $37k (before trade in).

Sad. Having an electric generator is almost a must-have in some areas. Newer ones are equipped with CO monitor and shutoff. A lot cheaper than a EV with vechicle-to-home capability. I’ve been eyeing one with inverter to power the fridge and cellphones during emergency...

An obscure sub-national state (only ranks 5th in global economy) is charging headlong into the EV-verse where its populace lusts after products duct-taped together by a tiny car maker (perpetually on the verge of bankruptcy). Sad times. Droughts and forest fires be damned. We needs our 0-60...
