That's the kind of Honda lore that I lack. I've always said that I liked Rio Yellow, but never understood why sometimes Honda yellow seemed lacking. What you're telling me is there are two different yellows, and the one I actually prefer is darker with more metallic flake.

Thank you!

I did my drivers side hub removal. 10 min job vs 2 hours on the passenger lol. The passenger side was stuck (see above).

You just need center caps. You're riding a little lower than me but my 10/8 is softer than the sedan needs. I kept whacking the front sway bar mounts and the scraping the front of the bumper cover until I raised it a little above the out-of-the-box settings.

Picked up some new tires for my stock 17's. Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 3+. Loving them so far great grip and smooth ride. Also found out my camber was waaay out of whack. I'm on Eibach pro-kit and camber is maxed out and my driver rear is still at -2.48. Yikes. I was also surfing autotrader and found a unicorn for sale with low mileage. Sure wish I was in the market right now for a new sedan I'd trade mine in for this one in a second.......Unicorn 6spd Malbec 40K miles Sedan

^^ that car is almost the ideal. I'd say the only way it could be perfect is if it were black or red interior. Tan really kills it for me.
