With these prices, I'm better off buying a new one with a warranty.

My gut says wait till next year to see what happens to the world, and by that I mean options...I've never seen so many new cars come with different tires.
Half the new R's I saw had Hancooks and the others had Contis. There is some funky supply issues going on and I really don't want to be spend that kind of money on a weird Covid car.

It's more of a quality thing. It seems like they're building cars with whatever they can find at the scrap yard right now.

If you want something that's not like that you gotta go bentley or above. *see crappy aston martin interior built w/ left over mercedes infotainment and plastic touch buttons*

its around 2 Grand for a set of Pilot 4S. You can even sell the take offs for $800-$1k if you really wanted to.
the R should be about 60k after tax... whats 2-3% of the value of the car on a set of tires.

Naw man, I'm saying cars right now seem to be coming with missing options etc. I'd hate to buy a new one and then they introduce a bunch of options once covid is "over".
It's not just tires, it's an example of cars coming with random ass parts and options.

Jacky what’s the wait time on the iionic 5 ? Still a couple of years ?
I like the loungey thigh cushion for the driver but I’m not sure if the passenger gets that option as well.

Not to mention more labour shortages, resulting in even worse build quality

But for those lucky few who are on the list, yes, about 12 to 18 month wait =)

I think as a kind gesture to a fellow track enthusiast, best to blur out or remove their license plate before posting photos, especially if Ontario plates because insurance companies are not always the friendliest when it comes to umm..."Drivers Education Programs."
