I have the iPhone 15 and CarPlay works fine in my FK8. I have a USB-A to USB-C cable plugged into the USB outlet. Plug in the phone and CarPlay starts up.

Thanks to @Thawk for the adapters. My low-rent winter setup looks way better now with the Honda center caps. I had a couple pop out last year and ran with no caps for the rest of the winter, but these adapters are exactly what I needed. He shipped fast and the fit is perfect.

The old post disappeared from FB a while back. Which is too bad, it was excellent.

I had an E46 M3 back in the day, and an E36 before that. Great cars, but I spent more on the E36 in the two years I owned it after the warranty expired than I've spent on my CTR in six years of ownership. The E46 might be my favorite car I've owned in terms of pure driving experience, but the...

I drove German cars for 18 years (E36 M3, E46 M3, Audi S4) before buying my FK8 new in December 2017. I loved the M3s, particularly the E46, but out of warranty repairs were absurdly expensive and BMW does everything possible to keep owners from being able to work on their own cars. The Audi was...

I like it. Not selling my FK8 but will be interested to see where the price ends up. And for those who say that's a lot for an Integra, remember everybody who said the price of the Type R is too high for a Civic.

I have a 2018 and have never had an issue with grinding in any gear. I don't doubt that others have but I wouldn't let that stop me from buying one. It's a blast to drive and I hope to keep mine for a long time. Finding one that hasn't been abused for a reasonable price may be a challenge, but...

I have plastic rings for my NSX wheels and have not had this issue. Interesting.

Wow, that's a hell of a project. But speaking from experience, I had a 2000 Lexus GS400 that was flooded in 2006. Lexus rebuilt the engine (cause it threw a rod) and insurance paid the bill. Drove that car until a couple of years ago, then gave it to a friend who's a Lexus mechanic. Still going...

No way. With the anticipated price point and ADM on top, nobody is going to be getting one of these under 50k, at least not for a while. I love my 2018 and have modded it to be exactly what I want, no reason to take the plunge on a redesign in the first year.

The subwoofer is in the trunk on the right side. I replaced the speakers in the front doors and the dash speaker, all with drop-in replacements from JL Audio. I haven't touched the rear speakers. The biggest bang for the buck was adding a dedicated amp for the subwoofer, there is a long, old DIY...

When we went to look at a CTR in the dealer showroom, my wife took one look at the spoiler and just shook her head ruefully. She knows I love the car but has no interest in riding in it, let alone driving it. As for the stereo, upgrades are essential. Doesn't need to be anything major, the...

Not exactly. You live in Minnesota, if I lived there I might store mine too. In a northeastern climate where we get cold weather and some snow, I'd rather drive my CTR all year round and enjoy it. Don't get me wrong, I love the car and plan to keep it as long as possible. But in the absence of...

No, it won't. COVID-related shortages have pushed up prices for all used cars, and limited production vehicles like the Type R have benefited more than many. But if you think your car will continue to appreciate when manufacturing and supply chains return to normal, good luck. I have a...

The damage is minor and the guy fessed up. Still sucks, of course, but could be much worse. My first sports car was a 97 M3 sedan, and I got hit when I'd had the car for three weeks. Two months in the body shop and $15k in damage. That hurt.

I got mine from Harbor Freight. Price is right and I haven't had any issues.

I grew up in Philly and now live in the DC area, basically the same climate but we get a little less snow. I have PS4S for summer and dedicated snow tires on cheap winter rims for November - March. As others have said, it's not that your summer tires will crack, but they turn into hockey pucks...

The OP said he was starting to worry about the miles. Why would you worry about putting miles on a Honda unless it was a resale concern? As for gridlock, the DC area (where I live) is not famous for open, uncongested roads. I still enjoy driving my CTR and do so whenever I get the chance. If I...

I love my CTR, but it's not a Ferrari. Drive it. Accidents happen every day, and if you get a beater there's no guarantee you won't get hit in the CTR anyway. I honestly don't understand people worrying about resale value unless you plan on selling it in the near future. I was putting 12-14k...

Starting to see them more frequently in Northern Virginia. Saw a boost blue at a gas station in Alexandria on Saturday. Unfortunately I was driving my daughter's Prius at the time. :)
