I just called the dealer and they told me the price is $56,494 before TTL. That included a mandatory $1,400 paint package. Its the same BS as all the other dealers.

I think it is crazy that all these people are paying $55k+ for this car. I've owned the FK8 and it is a great platform, but Type R pricing has been ridiculous. The C8 market just cooled over the past few months, and I expect this one to soften too.

It would be interesting to know the percentage of FL5 owners who own a YouTube channel...

First time poster here. I’ve been looking for a type r in my area ( Philadelphia/ New Jersey) for a few months now. The dealers that will sell at MSRP have lists that are very long and most of them will never get one. The ones that have stock or scheduled to get stock in my area are 10-20k over. I want a Championship White since my GSR , RSX type S, and 8th gen SI were white. What makes me mad is that the manufacturers and media claim manual transmissions don’t sell but in reality these enthusiast cars w manuals sell quickly, are marked up, and they don’t produce enough. Honda should increase production of the R and stop with the rubber band transmission versions. Even the Si has mark ups and are not easy to find. I’m curious if those of you who have bought for 10k+ are still happy after the new car feeling wears off , because I am obviously thinking about going that route, but my sensical side says HELL NO!

do the math it’s 16 dollars per 1000 financing give or take. plus the insane amount of interest and dealer markups for fake accessories

you’re overpaying 20k on 10 essentially

Honestly, I paid a 10k markup but they gave me a good deal on the exact accessories I wanted. No forced or overpriced accessories or packages. They were very straight with me and delivered the car straight off the truck. They also gave me a really good price on my FC3 trade in. I've wanted a type r for awhile and I knew being among the first batch I was going to pay an early adopter penalty. I'm happy. It's a pretty big upgrade from my FC3.
