Just FYI for everyone, was just listening to the Smoking Tire podcast that came out today and Matt Farah said the press drive they were invited to is November 9th at Sonoma with the embargo lifting November 15th, as someone previously noted. He said the car was at Road and Track’s PCOTY but they were told not to post about it or talk about it on social media, lol. Discussion in podcast is at 1:04 mark.

Called all my nearby dealerships in hopes of striking a deal or putting down a deposit, just got put on a waitlist. Except for 2 dealerships, one wants to sit down and build (accessories) a Type R for me because they said they will not be selling it without any but promise to send my deal up so they can get an allocation for the Type R. While the other dealership said they have a Type R arriving on the 28th at 10 AM and I’m the first person who called since it just popped up in their system today. They don’t have the VIN so I’m skeptical, they told me they will send me all the information via email within the week to confirm the color, VIN and Price. Let’s hope it’s the real deal because I’m hoping to get my hands on the FL5.

I have an email out to the dealership where I have a deposit down. Will report back with details, if any.

We need to get an official count down post going to when we expect allocations. Those that work at dealerships, what’s your best guess? Would it most likely be November 7th?

I'm not currently on any waitlists at any dealer, mainly due to lack of information on the car. Am I out of luck? Should I start calling some dealers now? Should I wait for pricing? Where's Buttercup?

GD Honda, your driving us insane. In 50 years there will be flying cars running off the tears of small children and you still wouldn't have released the car but instead another video of "pushing beyond yourselves"

OK, I feel a little better now.

You aren't out of luck, just contact a few of your local dealerships and let them know you're interested, and they should call you when they come in.

A deposit doesn't guarantee that someone will take the car. Quite a few people here have already expressed that they refuse to pay above MSRP. If you're willing to pay above MSRP you can get one. Might have to wait a while though.

I may do that today. My last couple cars, I inadvertently sniped them out from under someone. Not sure that will happen with this, but I tend to run into luck sometimes.

Wow that’s great news, have to give my contact a call and see if she’s heard the same thing. I’m surprised no one else is confirming this with their dealerships, they said one popped up in their system today?

Keep watching this group, we'll update everyone when dealers get VINs at which point get down there
