Acura ILX 2.4, CRV, '25 FL5 CTR
The MY2025 page is now up on Honda Canada’s website. MSRP increase of $1,470 to $54,766 total (freight & PDI included).
I saw this too and surprised it was so much considering the Si got a $100 bump. Extra salt in the wound, thanks Honda Canada. Now the gap to ITS is less than $4k. But Ill still wait for the CTR :D

Have you heard anything from your dealership about your allocation?

OUT OF TOPIC POST:
Pardon me for the OOTP! I just wanted to share and invite BC (LM but everyone is welcome) Type R owners this coming Saturday. Me and @Shichi will be attending the event. Details are posted (picture attached):

PS: I’m not affiliated with the event, just thought I’d share and meet you guys before rainy season starts here in BC. See you there! ??

WTF, that is $71k OTD even before the dealer starts bending you over. Even if they were actually available (which around here I gather they are not) that is $26k more than an Elantra N OTD. I don't doubt it's a slightly better car but that difference is insane.

2024 GR Corolla Circuit Edition
My local deal called me yesterday. The salesman asked me if I was still interested in buying the Type R for the deposit I gave 2 years ago…

Problem is that I bought a 2024 GR Corolla circuit edition and I love it.

I knew this day would come as I have been the next in line since I gave the deposits (at Honda and Toyota) 2 years ago.

The idea was to buy the first one that shows up and trade for the other one if I did like it.

I wish I could have both, but I believe I will have no other choice than asking for my deposit back.

The type r is the only color I wanted; white. This is just sad :(

No shame in it man, it’s a good problem to have! It’s good to hear you’re enjoying your GRC—if you do end up pulling your deposit back, it sounds like the dealership will honour the next person on the list and that person will be happy too. ??

I suspect there is no one in line, but it is possible. My understanding is that they were not taking other deposit because they knew they would only get one for 2024. I’m pretty sure the car is a 2025 as they didn’t get any 2024. My neighbour bought the only 2023 allocation the received, that was late 2022.

The Local Acura dealership has 3 Integra type s and they don’t sell… Atlantic Canada is poor. Many GR Corolla Core available around also.
