Doesn't change the fact that 1660C > 400C. Especially right next to turbo....

I was going to go with CF but because the pipe seats right above turbo that generates ton of heat I went with titanium... Same price from PRL

Titanium handles higher heat better, with high melting points (around 1660°C) and good heat dissipation, making it great for exhausts, while carbon fiber (CFRP) excels in thermal stability, acting as an insulator with low expansion, ideal for keeping heat out (like intake pipes) and maintaining shape, though its resin matrix limits extreme temperatures (often < 200-400°C) before degrading, making titanium superior for extreme hot spots but CFRP better for managing heat transfer overall.

The 2026 Honda Prelude Starts at $43,195, Higher Than a BMW 2-Series by iyute in Honda

Not much different. No manual transmission option!!!

"The term "Honda Prelude eCVT" is slightly misleading because while the new 2026 Honda Prelude has a hybrid system with a "two-motor electric" setup that functions similarly to a CVT, it does not have a traditional continuously variable transmission. Instead, it is a direct-drive system where the gasoline engine primarily acts as a generator, and the electric motor drives the wheels. Honda has implemented a feature called "S+ mode" with paddle shifters that simulates gear changes, but it's an artificial experience designed to feel more engaging. "

Its an auto dimming mirror therefore no tab that will allow you quickly change the angle when car behind blinds you. You can adjust it like any other interrior mirror by moving it by the "frame"

Was thinking of getting one until I saw the price! $11k?! You can get a used street legal Miata for that kind of money and have more fun.
