Beautiful car!
You mention "all routine service" done at the dealership--at 12k miles, I can't imagine it has needed more than a single oil change. What else has it been in for?
Nope, never had that happen. Reason #326 of thousands that I won't gamble with aftermarket stuff like a K-Tuner (I know that puts me in the minority here on Prime).
Same message as on your FB post--these are not really "limited edition", they are just an accessory like any other (e.g. lighted side sills, front bumper protection film, etc.). But they are indeed plush and premium!
I'll just tell the story here. I had a burned-out tail light on my ZDX and Weir Canyon Acura was relatively close to where I was working at the time. I made an appointment at lunchtime to get it swapped out, easy-peasy. After a couple of hours I started checking in to see what was taking so...
Avoid Weir Canyon Acura at all costs. They did something with me that was so dishonest I still can't believe it really happened. To this day, if my Acura broke down literally right in front of their dealership, I would have it towed a hundred miles to anyplace else just to avoid them.
I agree, 1/1 should be defined by color. Per my Acura contact (and note that my number earlier was incorrect!), "33 Nord Gray units were built and only one had the indigo interior. So your car and a Indy Yellow with Indigo are the only two unique color combo units in the US." There were many...
Thanks for the compliments, @The Kid ! But check your facts. ;) There were actually 78 thermal orange cars produced in the 2019MY, three of which had the orchid interior (which is what @Robertpcufl asked about). The data sheet they handed me is dated 10/1/19, so I don't have access to all the...
I had a good one today. Stopped at the grocery store on my way home from work. I've got a nice, faraway parking spot I like to use there--the only drawback is having to wheel the cart with the food out to the car, then walk the cart back to the front of the store, then walk back to the car but...
"Assist" means the car is using battery power to increase power to augment the gasoline engine. "Charge" means the car is using regenerative braking (even applies sometimes when just coasting) to put charge back into the hybrid battery.
As you noticed, in Sport+ the car tries to bring the...
"Worth it" is the most subjective thing in the world. Some on this site who have driven both claim the Type-S is a little tighter and they claim they can feel the tiny bit of increased horsepower. Looks-wise, some prefer the Type-S while I personally feel it is a significant downgrade compared...
Not enough of them! I really think this is the kind of thing that should have been standard, but also realize the starting price of the NC1 was a big impediment to sales as it was, so they undoubtedly looked for things like this to cut and make optional.
I'm still surprised there wasn't a...
The NC1 and C8 do share significant design cues, and the Type-S went further in the "hard angles and clashing features" direction which makes it look even more like a new 'Vette.
Some of those are totalled for sure, but most look quite worth fixing. Who determines whether a car goes to salvage or gets repaired?
Also, for such a limited-production car, there sure seem to be a lot out of commission already. I wonder what the total count of still-active NC1's is.
I respectfully disagree, @DRIFTER. Over time, I think the Type S will be derided as a weak last model year of the NC1; it will be the 2018-2021 models that will be seen as the best expression of the NC1 platform.
In terms of exclusivity, only the 2017 NSX sold more units than the 2022. The...
I think it's a shame to hide the super-deep andaro paint with a satin PPF, but people do all kinds of crazy things all the time so I shouldn't be surprised or disappointed.
