Anyone one not getting MRC? - Page 4

GTIanZ28 · 09-22-2015, 04:15 PM

Not getting it. Only reason is that my wallet had to draw a line in the sand somewhere.

all the must get goodies are expensive!
Y4Q Heavy-Duty Cooling and Brake Package without WRS or RPO RTH (20" wheel) $1,285.00
NPP Dual Mode Exhaust System $895.00
F55 Magnetic Ride Control $1,695.00

= $3875! That would put my 2LT RS @ $40,000 - don't want to pay that for a V6 Car. Plus, there is no way those options would retain any type of resale value which will likely already be suffering because LT.

The Magnetic Ride Control isn't available on the LT

It is simple, if you can afford, get it. Some can't and that's OK. If you want one system that does everything well, get it. If you are going to track your car often, don't get it. There are better aftermarket systems. But MRC does give smooth ride/aggressive ride option at a push of the button.

Anyone who doesn't get this MRC upgrade will regret it later....period.

Don't get Y4Q without getting the 20" black wheel upgrade, it's only $800 and it ends up being the same price in the end, so you essentially get free 20" wheels.

I added it today, it cost me a little time but think its worth it.

DWALEX · 09-22-2015, 08:04 PM

Great decision!

Dreng · 09-22-2015, 09:00 PM

I wish I could afford it and my dealer knows I want to try and raise the extra scratch so he ordered replica of my order except with mrc with there next allocation. So I am hoping if there is bay time or extra qc time that they ship together and arrive together to check them out side by side.

Oops you are 100% correct of course. I thought it was available on any model.

Chad0311 · 09-27-2015, 06:59 AM

I didn't order it. I would like to have it but I'm already well over budget with the 2SS pricing as it is.

Depending how much the 56F wheels cost, I may switch those out too if it gets crazy. I did spring for the NPP dual mode exhaust which is nice because I will be leaving early in the morning and don't want to wake the kids if I don't have to.

I have a 100% refundable deposit on the car though so I could just wait and save a better down payment and wait until spring to order another car with everything I want. I think you made the right choice grabbing it but if you or anyone else decided to go without I don't think you will regret it as much as people say.

Bump! I'd like to see this poll get some more data points.

rotis · 10-01-2015, 03:39 PM

I think it's a steal, but I didn't order it. I have a bare-bones 1SS on order, with plans to build it for a specific SCCA Solo class. Due to the other suspension modifications planned, the MR dampers would not work for me. I spent a LOT of time reading academic research papers on the control algorithms in use, to determine that they are unlikely to cope reasonably when the spring rate doubles.

I am getting it, does anyone know if there's a bump,in power with npp?

Is there a power increase with NPP exhaust? Not officially.
