I really like them. I thought they'd be crap as they're super wide, and quite luggy- (305 width DuraTracs)

They're great in deep snow and quite good on hardpack and ice. Not quite as good as KO2's, but much better in deep snow than the Falken AT3W's. About the same on ice.

How are you liking it so far? Did you drive the GTI to compare? I really want to lease one of these as my next car.

Only if Honda made the Si a little bit more fun and the design less extra

I'm really enjoying the car. The only car I had to compare it to was a friends stage 2 mk6 GTI. I test drove a 2017 at a dealership before I bought this one. Its got plenty of power and I can take my daughter around in it. Back is a bit tight with the baby seat in and trunk space is a little smaller than my wife's Mazda 3 hatchback.

Champ White looks dirty next to Grand Prix White(I think that is what it's called). I parked next to another owner years ago at A&J right after he painted his ITR GP White and mine looked like dog shit beside it. Haha!

The S2000 went to Project Detail for 5 days of work. While the Type R has been driven for two weeks without a wash now lol hence the huge colour difference.

A quick snap at a parking lot.

Snow helps hide the dirt a bit.

When the weather warms up, I will probably throughly wash the car.

OT: I love those little ride along cars in the back ground!

There used to be one of those hand pumper cars at the Duncan Train Forest Museum when I was a kid. Probably removed it due to liability.

Hmmmmm...took 4x as long because people with insufficient tires blocked many ways. Still managed to have much fun driving through streets with snow high enough to be thrown over the bumper/hood and windscreen. LOL





Stay safe out there everyone!
