As a matter of fact, I'm an editor for them now.

I don't want to get anyone in trouble, but it's a pass down from corporate to this person. Again, would take it with a grain of salt tho considering they listed Neptune as a new color, but the color code is D4S, and they still have raven listed (with the same color code).

I would take it with a whole shaker of salt at this point in time. They will never ever use the same code number for two different paints. If by the top trim you mean the Black Edition then I could see that going away. They will just replace it with something else "special" though.

Yeah, judging by the model number, top trim. Oddly enough, the TRD trim wasn't assigned to the "special edition" model number. Those model numbers are not in use atm.

Noise restrictions are for the homes they built around the track AFTER the track was there for years. Money talks.

^Beat me to it. Only in Ca can you have people knowingly purchase a home next to a racetrack and then complain about how noisy it is, then actively lobby to add noise restrictions to said racetrack.

That would be an awesome daily.


Just look at it this way, it would have been stolen within a week and you'd have to walk home from the grocery store balancing everything on your head cuz of course you forgot you bags in the car. So it is better this way

Lol, seriously. Both my Integra GS and my brother's Civic DX have been stolen a combined 6 times, being recovered within 30mi every time... At least now, I know a really good kill switch spot lol
