I don't feel the same with my CTR FK8.The oil low level oil warning light will come every time the engine hit 6000-6500 RPM for a sustained period of time[/QUOTE]
Do you change your own oil? If it is overfilled it can create crankcase windage, a condition where the crankshaft counterweights literally whip the oil away from the sump, causing the oil light to activate due to the lower level in the oil pan sump area. Too much oil can be as much of a problem as having not enough oil.

What's the deal with the interior embargo?

Weird. It was visible in Tokyo. Only change on the interior I could see on the car in Japan was the new shift knob and the alcantara steering wheel as they mentioned in the press release.

Granted not super "visible" there is a shorter shifter in there as well. I have no clue what the interior embargo was about though.

So... Basically Honda stole the grabber blue?

Honesty boost blue really reminds me of nitrous blue (I think that’s what it was called) on the Focus RS. I love that color.

Just had to google it. They look quite the same to the Grabber Blue.

It's a strange choice for Honda to choose this color which has been a Ford signature color all the way back to 1969 when it got first introduced.

Nitrous blue is more pastel than boosted blue. They’re similar tones, but boosted blue has a bit more saturation.

I bought my Type R in championship white. I really like the blue but would get tired after a while. I think the Type R deserves more aggressive colours

Same as I was thinking.
