[QUOTE="Dinosgt, post: 16779392, member: 169099"] I owned a 2017 type R for a couple of years. Fantastic car. Bought it from a dealer on the west coast, flew out, drove it roughly ~2000 miles home. That thing got 28-30 mpg at sustained elevated clips. I was shocked to see that in a 550 hp car. Had tons of torque all the time. Comfortable, smooth and very capable car. Engine sounded fantastic. Burped and farted all the time on sport mode. On Quiet mode it’s was very civil (which I rarely used)... Dragy had it running 1.79 60 foots, 3.4-3.5 0-60s and 11.51 qtrs. Pulled hard form any RPM. A tune will get them over 600 hp and running low 11s. But I didn’t mess with it - I have other stuff to mod. Overall - the car is a blast to drive and own. Sold it once warranty expired - Stupid telematics system kept throwing codes and I didn’t want to deal with it. In my 2 year, therefore limited experience - it was one of the best cars I have ever owned - but I couldn’t speak to long term ownership, as mine had about 30k on it when I sold it. (The thing seemed to randomly throw O2 codes once in a blue moon, but I just reset them and they wouldn’t come back for months - I think the aggressive off throttle popping caused them at times. No harm done - just reset them. I think there was a TSB on it, but it required a dealer flash that got rid of the pops and farts - so I never did it).
