But was able to keep the CTR and get a 2021 Accord Touring 2.0T.

Love the CTR but became really uncomfortable on longer drives. Started to look at the 2021 Accords with the 2.0T to replace the Type R. Same heart, different bloodline, tuner friendly.

Decided to make my Type R a dedicated track car and use the Accord as a daily.

Ordered some vinyl to “delete” the chrome around the windows and front grill/bumper. Have a PRL intercooler, Intake, and Ktuner on the way as well. Probably will keep the exhaust stock for now.

Nice bait. I was getting tempted by a Supra 3.0 the other day.

I used to like that color, but then everyone always wants to get that color and it gets played out. Not saying it's bad just not as special as it was when it first came out.

Can't beliece you have a CTR and 2.0T Accord.......lucky bastard lol

I liked that colour for all of a week. Every automaker has some sort of solid flat grey and it's getting old imo.

We need more reds, greens, yellows, blues..

Thats what I am saying. When it first came out it was seen as special but now every manufacturer has their own version of that Grey color. Every hatch owner has that color lol.

I find the argument against this colour hilarious some times. " I was gonna get this colour but i see it every where". Every single time i read it, the owner has a white or black car... Literally the two most common colours out there.

Because I don't consider my color rare or special, its just a normal civic color. All I am saying is that the Sonic Grey Pearl isn't as special as it was when it came out in 2017.
