Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

[Use20]

Got "the" phone call yesterday morning! I was 2nd up (4th in line from 27 months ago) and the fellow ahead of me decided he didnt want to buy it to flip it as his original intention, so I got one! The guy ahead of me had ordered ceramic paint application, so had to cough up another $1200 on top of their "mandatory" block heater, AW mats, back trunk tray and mud flaps. Well, they dont sell mud flaps for the R so that at least got knocked off. (I guess the 3 R's they sold before me paid for mud flaps that didnt exist...)

The big news was that this dealership was supposed to get 9 over 3 years. The Manager told me as I was about to leave that their Honda Rep. said this was the last one they're getting in 24 and none in 25. Next one in 26. Wait: wasnt this a 3 yr run? I'm just happy I got one and maybe this is the last one they'll ever get if this is still a 3 yr run. Still a little shocked this all worked out.

Congrats!

28575. Other than it being a numbered car, is there any other aspects of the number that mean anything?

There is no meaning at all…imo…..haha

I just called Wheaton Honda in Edmonton as they have an RR on cargurus. They told me they might have one with a few addons, block heater, warranty etc. asked him for the total price and was told $78000.
Waste of time

There is a brand new grey color in Calgary asking 65K + tax

There’s an unsold (according to a sales man) CW Type R at Whitby/Oshawa if anyone is interested.

EDIT: Adding the AD from Autotrader.

There’s also two new PWP Integra Type S there, new. Kinda weird but they’re there.

Anyone got wind of when the next batch lands in Canada (if any)? I'm guessing based on previous years it'll be December?

I think you're right. I'd have to look at the releases I posted back then, but from memory, I think it's November to January. I'm sure there will be a few stragglers between now and November.

I've only been looking for a CTR for the last 2 or so months and I am finding I am about 1 year late to the party. Called 50 dealerships in southern ontario over two weeks and only about a handful are even taking orders for a brand new one and even then I am 6th to 33rd in line... The rest say to order off the honda website but when I go there, there is no option to get an allocation.


Am I just fked? Seems like its impossible to try and even get a MY26. Any suggestions?
