Owned 3 Honda/Acura products none of them ever burned or lost oil between OCI's. Come to think of it none of my friends cars did either.

Sounds like operator error or something specific to a single model!! Hahaha

Love it and the satin finish. I'd buy one. That would be awesome if they have a matte/satin paint option. Have enough Matte Paint supply's for next 3-4 years haha!!

The pictures do no justice, I was there in person a few feet away from the car.
I guarantee that car is already sold out...
Waiting list full.
It is a nice vehicle, but I cannot imagine how much it will cost !!

looks like AU is getting the 2017 model at the end of this year, they are saying for 50k AUD which under cuts the RS by 10k, not sure if a front wheel drive Honda hatch is worth 50k but if it does a better lap time then a Ford I might look at one in the future.
