Im no expert or even an amateur, but my guess is to get yourself a scan tool or whatever to constantly monitor the car as you drive it. There are videos of them out there for performance tuning people and it's kind of your only option besides persistently getting the dealership to replicate it...

In that case i'd say Si Sedan vs Hatchback only then. Coupe can sit out

Hatchback for long term utility or Coupe if you are ok with standard storage and 2 doors only. When I say it like that it sounds bad but I myself have had a 2 door couple for 7 years and I've never complained. I don't go on road trip with friends and even if I had to fill up with 4 people, it...

It's interesting you mention that because I was going to add to this post to talk about some other stuff I've picked up while researching the motor this car has. However i'll address it all by comparing it to what you said. Sure the oil dilution issue can obviously lead to engine damage down...

To add to my own thread, another post reminded me that you should run your AC at least once a week (and obviously, even more would be better) in order to prevent seals from drying up and cracking, causing refrigerant to leak amd destroy the entire system. Naturally this means making sure to run...

Hi all, new owner hopeful for a 2021 Sport Touring Manual here. I've discovered the 1.5T oil dilution issues and AC condenser and whatever the hell else this car generation has going for it. This thread is nice to look through when it comes to seeing how people handle their AC repairs and...

Scotty Kilmer says it's because they've switched to water based paints which won't last worth a damn. Meanwhile the oldies had oil based and go on like champs

OOOOh nice. Sorry ignore my message then.

Listen I don't know if the people here are the vast majority of owners who don't know what goes on in their cars or if they ACTUALLY don't experience the issue, but the supposed truth is that the 1.5turbo engines are practically defective. They let more gas mix into the car oil than is...

Objectively, it's definitely more flat and straighter. It reminds me a lot of more traditional vroomvrooms like mustangs or camaro. Subjectively? It'll either end up a wannabe attempt and look like a mashup of a mustang and a hatchback and look worse than both..or it'll be a more sharp, mature...

Who knows maybe an inflatable is an option? :o There is a outlet on teh car apparently to connect the air pump that is usually built into the inflatables these days... But yeah it sounds possible with even the Sport Touring cargo floor. We're still left with durability questions though

Doesn't the longer, outer foam blocks keep that flimsy floor at the same height? Without the wheel it's my assumption (and the repeated assertions by actual owners) that putting any force on the floor while there's no wheel to support it will cause the floor to cave in and bend

Jokes aside, yes I did state that concern from the get-go and was really just looking to full-proof the utility of the cargo space. Laying down on it is an awesome idea whether it's a cheapskate night out during a roadtrip, or just chilling out on it for a while before going home. The utility is...

Well I mean the cargo volume is what definitely matters. It's THE measurement of how much space you can fit in. Dimensions would be the same thing but non-simplified. If it helps, it's literally just a few inches increased (and therefor reduced space) in height, strictly from the cargo floor...

I work in a pet store and can vouch that the harness is important. The leash won't really do jack squat to be honest. You can check for petstores that have this harnesses that come with buckle attachments to the seatbelt, I've personally tried it though and it's terrible. What might be nice for...

Awesome :) thanks for the reassurance. I've heard nothing but good things like your story. I guess I was just being wishy washy about it. Gotta keep saving up!

:OOO

Oh snap that means I should hurry up and save money for around August instead of December....damn. I was hoping to make use of the internet advice of christmas/end of year quota sales....Might as well settle with taking advantage of the end-of-model-year sales. I really don't know what to hope...

Oh man I almost dream I could do that. It's like the ultimate thing you could ever do with a new car. Just imagine buying such an important thing in your life late in the day, and can only enjoy it on the 30 minute drive back home but also have to go to sleep immediately after because it's dark...

I agree that the Sedan is sharper and more mature, that's for sure. I was obsessing over wanting the Sedan but once I discovered the Hatchback, it became a war inside me trying to try to WANT the Sedan but realizing deep down that the Hatchback is pretty much 80-90% Sedan but with the awesome...
