CW Civic FK8R Daily #05343

[wongy]

After a long wait, the car is finally here! Thanks to Raymond from Larke Hoskins Honda for overseeing the whole process. After leaving a deposit for one in early Feb, the last week leading up to the delivery of the car was confusing as the ETA in the system got changed from 26th of Sept to 26th of Oct. Then the very next day i got a call saying the car could be picked up the next day. First Civic R out of Suttons Homebush Honda









Car is really easy to drive and very responsive. Keen to push it past 3k when abit more driving is done. Comfort mode is really comfortable to drive in, then sport and +R mode completely changes the car. In Sport mode the steering stiffens as well as the suspension, and the response is increased, and in +R mode, the steering stiffens even more, but have yet to really test how it compares with sport mode. At the moment i'm loving the car and can't wait to drive it every day. At the moment it's getting paint protection, as well as a blackvue dashcam installed.






Will update when i get the car back, for now, enjoy more photos

Quick update to what i've done to the car so far, i've Installed:

- OEM Cargo Boot Tray
- OEM Window Visors (weathershields)

- OEM Type R Floor Mats

Also a big thanks to Proper Detailing for applying the paint protection. The car looks amazing! After the paint protection is applied, it is then cured with infrared lighting. Coating has been applied to the exterior, wheels and interior (carpet, seats, door trims).

Also thanks to J_HUI for the photos
