I called the insurance agent to put her back on the policy (and road) for the weekend; she even got to come out of the garage long enough to dig some crap out of the back. Hoping it only snows 3 or 4 more times before then....

I just did the same thing on Friday, called to resume insurance. Drove it for 30 minutes and then today it went cold again. It's just sitting in the garage like winter storage never stopped.

Go for it (although I might be biased) see above, I have the same lip on mine. Think it suits the comp front end well. I do like the M perf one too but sometimes looks a little too slim

Blasphemy I'm sure, but I replaced the M2C. Before we get the pitchforks out, I have to provide backstory. Sadly the M2C was totalled back in November. I've been watching the market for a CS this entire time but ultimately my allocation for the Integra came up before I could locate a CS. Not a big loss but I really did want to get back into the F87 platform. The Type S is no M2 but it's a great compromise for my use case.
There's still room in my garage for another car so the search isn't over, just postponed. I'll be back at some point! |

Honda REALLY nailed that blue. Such a fantastic colour. Enjoy the new car and good luck with your future search!

I agree, the blue is really sharp! When I was M2C shopping a few years ago, I was hoping they had this type of blue. No hate on LBB but I would have LOVED a San Marino Blue M2C. |

I *loved* that car. Yes, it was basically a rebadged Civic, but for a kid just out of college? It was fairly quick for the day, didn't weigh all that much and was overall a hoot to drive-- especially with the MT and lack of sunroof. I eventually sold it but I still have very fond memories of it-- the Integra was one of the best cars I ever had-- NOTHING ever broke on it. Acura really built it right-- it's nice to see the name back in the game. R.

The performance envelope is much higher on the M2 but Type S/R is more accessible during street driving. The inputs are much better on my Integra. 2 things I immediately missed on the M2C though; buckets seats and better headlights! |

And yeah the other thing I think the Honda is ahead is transmission, I now understand why people say the BMW transmissons are not great, shifting these cars feels pretty amazing, very mechanical, steering is also improved for sure, car feels lighter around its feet. I have to get out of my break in period but I know the motor is not going to be M2 good, still seems like it will be fun and a good motor but its just a 4cyl turbo at the end of the day and fwd. Also I love that everyone says the m2c sounds bad, this car sounds like nothing lol, sometimes I think i bougth an electric car. |

Detailed and installed the summer wheels (can't believe how much brake dust was caked inside).
Installed M Perf pedals. 🤘 |
