I wonder what mode that is in. Sounds good to me, not too loud. I can see from the launch info that its a valved exhaust, changing dependant on driving mode.

I like the nice rumble. I wonder if the interior will sound good?

One thing to note. It now has a valved exhuast. The middle one has a flap that can open or close.

Probably in R+ mode is when it'll open unless theres a switch to do it individually like in other cars. In the video im pretty sure its closed because theres just 1 exhuast clip amd he revs it as soon as the car starts

Nice find. Sounds good.

I’m shocked he was able to start and rev it. Sounds a little better from the short clip. The same thing happened with the new Si. One YouTuber I’m forgetting was the only person to start and rev it on the video.

KBB also started it up for the FL5

Honda added a individual mode this time. I'd like my suspension soft and steering normal and everything on R+.

sounds okay, honestly no 4banger turbo sound has me lusting for it other than maybe some rally cars.

Anyone got a screen cap of the supposed heated seats?

The heated seats logo is illuminated there, at the far right of the AC controls

JDM model has them, if you look at the front bumper they also have parking sensors that we don't get.

You don’t need heated seats unless you have leather seats. I’m Canadian you folks south of the border don’t get that cold compared to us.
