And if you actually own a MY19 Aegean Blue car, you have officially a "limited edition" colored car as well!

It's looking like 2019 is the best model year for the FK8 so far. '19s come with volume knob and physical climate controls that the '18s don't have, leaves out the sensing suite and artificial sound feature that the '20s have.

Meh, I can count the number of times I've needed either on my hand. I use the steering wheel controls and I keep the climate control on auto 99% of the time.

Sensing sucks! I have it on my 2020 Accord and 2019 Pilot... Have most everything disabled. I guess adaptive cruise I use at times but even that does alot of annoying stuff. Zero reason I would want any of it on a car like the Type R.

People complaining about the added safey features and active sound enhancements blow my mind. It’s better to have the option of using those features then not having them at all. They can easily be disabled if you don’t want to use them smh. You are getting a lot for only a small bump in MSRP everything added is just a bonus in my eyes

I'm not complaining as much as saying it is not a draw at all from a purchasing standpoint. It's just like whatever. It's there but it may as well not be too.

Let me know how disabling goes when you need a windshield or side mirror replacement.

So happy I waited for the 2020 they worked out the bugs from the first generation and upgraded it, all for another $700 cant beat that, plus everyone saying the price would go way up were completely wrong. So glad I didn't listen to some of the people on this forum talking out their a$$es.

So how much would all the suspension parts cost and how much would it improve 2019 and prior? Bushings. Lower control arms etc. since the damping system is software controlled, can they be sent to the 2019 and prior?

Have you found anything on the bushings yet? I’m looking for a total cost of control arms and bushings to install on my 18. And since the damping system is software, can it be loaded to previous years?

It's the same windscreen.. the sensors are stuck onto it inside the car. Also don't you guys have windscreens policies on your insurance or something?
