This markup on the Golf R and a similar markup on the Integra Type S are exactly what ended up pushing me towards the CT4VBW a year and a half ago. I’d like to thank greedy VW and Acura dealers for helping me find the right car!

Tenth of a second chrono is less practical for cooking steaks but could time 0-60 runs if we didn’t already have that feature on board and if I was coordinated enough to operate a chronograph while shifting flat out (I’m not). Come to think of it, maybe it’s not very practical at all - oh...

Just in case anyone else runs into this issue, finally got around to bringing my car to the shop and it was a simple solenoid replacement (covered under warranty). Link to part...

Thanks, this is super helpful and exactly what I was looking for

Certainly not asking anyone to find reverse on the interstate (sorry if it came off that way). The whole me checking my own potentially faulty transmission kind of defeats the control group comparison I was asking for in the forum, doesn’t it? What I’m asking is whether the reverse gate is...

Would someone with an M6 (I have a CT4 but I’m sure 5 should be the same) mind sanity-checking me that the tremec has a reverse gate lockout at highway speed? For example, if I’m going 50 in fourth and push selector all the right in neutral, straight up should be 5th and straight down 6th...

This has also happened to me 3 or so times as a result of a hard bump at highway speeds (and I think an LI highway/parkway was the culprit for at least one of those)

Anyone else think that they cut off the infotainment/gauge cluster for the interior pic of the 4 version because they haven’t decided whether they’re going to give the 4BW the interior refresh yet? (Or maybe it’s just because they don’t want to highlight that it still has the old screen set up...

This is very helpful. Did the instructors speak at all as to how traction stability levels differ between Competitive Drive mode and say Race 1 or Race 2?

Asked about this in another thread but think it got buried: I see a lot of you referencing being able to toggle PTM in any drive mode, are you able to change the PTM slider while in track or sport modes? My car only allows PTM changes in v mode (I’ve included a picture of it not allowing me to...

I am also from LI (in CT these days, but still come back pretty frequently to see family) and would make the trip to the next one!

Totally makes sense, and I thought heavily about waiting for something like yours to hit the market. I actually generally prefer to buy cars used off of a lease where possible l, but a few things that impacted my decision here: 1. The only feature that was a deal breaker for me was the sun...

Congrats on the buy! Guess I will have to rely on someone else to sort this out - here’s looking at you @Gotshotgun ?? A related question for those with the HP steering wheel - does the PTM toggle work while in track mode? My car doesn’t allow me to adjust PTM in track mode (only V mode) which...

This is the route I went. Looked at a used ‘22 for ~$65k with 9k miles that had mid tier seats and CF1. Although it looked awesome, I ended up holding out for a new ‘24 base model that I got $3k off msrp. Saved me the headache of worrying about what took place during those 9k miles (and...

Would also be very curious what the refreshed 5 front end would look like on its 4 counterpart (though it sounds like that likely is not in the cards). The 4 and 5 always looked pretty different, so it would be cool to see what sorts of subtle changes they would make to the new 5 fascia to make...
