I believe that this setup is cat-less though.

All pretty reasonable. However, engine coolant is only required at 10 years/75,000 miles. I would also change the twin electric motor oil if the original owner hasn't done so. Very easy and quick to do.

$300/hr for a windshield repair?!? A little ridiculous, no?

Don't you have to actuallysubscribe/pay for Acura Link?

Just because this vendor lists it as "discontinued", doesn't make it so. Clutch is a wear and tear item; seriously doubt that it would be discontinued.

How about us owners located in Europe?

Please give us your verdict once done. If possible, let us know the labour involved. Very interesting.

The Carbon 6 or the wrap? If the Carbon 6 is close to OEM quality, it's a steal!

Actually $8 grand for an entire carbon fibre roof isn't bad at all, considering people are paying $10 grand for carbon fibre of just the central dash portion (close to $20 grand for most of the interior). Not sure how much labour would be involved in changing the roof though.

The trunk is water tight. Water has been known to seep into the engine area with the use of pressure washers. But this area is not really supposed to be water tight as it's obviously open underneath.

They would've gotten into DEEP shit if you informed Acura about this. Basically fraud against their supplier.

He actually said that if the potential in the NC1 is truly as he believes it to be, then he "may" sell a car and get an NC1...

Your dash shows the hybrid battery, not the 12 volt unit up front. I'm 99.9999% sure that your hybrid battery is fine as it's not responsible for what you're describing. The issue is with your 12 volt battery. A few hundred dollars. Easily changed.

Could there be something wrong with your charger? Battery could also be toast and is no longer properly keeping a charge. Random dash lights are most often caused by a weak battery. I have a 2019 and am on my second battery.

All these wonderful videos of high horsepower gains. I, however (more often than not) seem to find videos of highly modified engines giving up the ghost soon thereafter. Then, they are taken apart, internals are strengthened, etc. And then they blow again. Maybe I'm just unlucky with my YouTube...
