Man the confidence that you'll get a FL5 is admirable! I'd do the same if I felt as confident!

People who found dealers to put them in line with a deposit are going to get cars, I would say pretty much guaranteed if you’re high enough on a list. Might be a long time for some, but they’ll get one.

Define “high enough on a list”

I’m 4th. Probably gonna be a while for me! Although my dealer is one of the bigger Honda dealers in the NW/Intermountain West

Please let us know if you are willing to share the wealth on the allocations that you end up not needing. I don't mind driving back from FL to GA!

Must be nice, my dealership doesn't allow employees to get the first unit on SIs or Type Rs. The first couple have to go to clients.

once i secure my car, i will gladly let someone else take my spot, can't confirm those dealers will be msrp though as i know 2 already told me they'd have a bump but not sure on how much

Yeah I don’t have an answer for that. I’m pulling shit out of the air just like everyone else. I just don’t feel as doom and gloom about it as most.

Sounds good. I'm willing to pay up to $5k over including any mandatory add-ons so please keep me in mind. Thanks!

I can’t imagine dealerships will allow for people to take the spots of other people, their lists will be too long. You’d end up having to buy it and sell it to the person

I have the first one reserved at a local dealer for 4k over msrp, feel like I hit the jackpot
