Went to view one today at colliers Honda on the tyburn road . In black .

It's the cliche I know but in the flesh these are simply stunning machines .
I wasn't keen on them at all especially the back-end , but now I'm definitely going book a test drive.
Photos online don't do this car justice .

Yes indeed....flaky
Went back and managed a test drive today ...
It's an awesome car .... the fk2 left me cold but this feels special . Steering feels so sharp , rides nice even in default (sport).

It's baffling really how the same engine and transmission with a few tweaks can feel so different.
Prefer the fk2 interior though .

Makes me wonder if the flywheel and exhaust can be swapped over onto the fk2...if that's all that's been changed .
Along with the gear ratios of course.

You probably know it wasn’t as simple as that ;)

Yeah true . Just read the engine spec there isn't an exhaust manifold . It's all part of the head .
One thing I did notice today was there is no oil temp or oil pressure gauge . Can't believe they didn't carry that over to be honest .
Just boost and G meter .
