One nice thing you showed is something I had wondered about. By using the individual mode, you can get the good throttle response but not have the fake sounds like you get in sport mode. Good to know.

Super nice👌🏾 wonder if they’re make a similar car to the Prelude. It would be nice if they keep the sleek look with whatever new design they come up with.
You're way too hung up on Honda's stated hp numbers. You plead for another fifteen horsepower, seemingly unaware that it already makes almost twenty-five more than you think it does. Placebo Effect, in reverse. You read that it's underpowered, so that's how you automatically see it. Never mind that the car makes 222 hp on the dyno, which is exactly where you and so many other reviewers are saying it needs to be in order to satisfy you. No idea why Honda is sandbagging here, but they are, so be happy. You got what you wanted. Well, except for the missing equipment form last year's model, or this year's Canadian-spec model. Considering the price hike Honda gave this thing this year, yes, that part truly sucks.
the camera/gimbal work is so smooth haha
Unfortunately they aren't a good price right now though. Would be GREAT value for MSRP, but the cheapest offer I've found is $5k over, and there are *specific* instances of them going for $20k over with basically just tint added. If they were actually going for MSRP I'd be picking one of these up instead of a GR86, because my GOD these are absolutely brilliant.

Flashed mine two weeks in with the Hondata 250 tune. Totally changed the way the car feels and drives. 250 HP and 250 lb ft of torque are perfect figures for this car. Stock all season tires barely squeel before the LSD kicks in and manages the power delivery. IDK about 0-60 because it all depends on how well I launch and shift twice. There's no issue passing on broken yellows, and it still averages 22-25 in the city and 30-33 MPG on the highway driving aggressively.

@@ThaKenMan not less money, it's only less money on your end because of conversion rates. Canadians pay a little over 33k for it. Salary aren't different between both countries, we inherently "make less" internationally because of the value of the dollar. Only americans get the canadian civic si "cheaper" if you could import cars without any fees across the border. It would probably be similarly priced with all the features in the US, just in USD instead of CAD.

That fake engine noise is sooooooooooo cheesy🥴. That was one of the big things that drew me to a Mazda3 6-speed over some of the other entries in this segment. Sound and power delivery of the Mazda NA 2.5 is muchhhhhh more pleasing to me than any 1.5/1.6T. Revs drop much more naturally, too, with the manual. Admittedly the manual is no Civic Si manual and it doesn’t handle quite like this, but was definitely the right choice for me.
