My dealer said they are stuck until they can all arrive at once. He said his transit guy still said it'll be here before end of the month, but they are intentionally delaying it to get them all at once to east coast... which seems weird but from what I'm seeing here might be right.

Yeah that’s some bullshit if true. Just ship the damn things. West Coast people driving them around, so not like we care if someone gets one first. I want to see more people posting their cars and get more actual customer reviews.

Would love to see that roll out of FL5's heading out ???

I'm going to assume that may be the idea. If everyone gets their cars at once, then it'll cause a big social media pop and interest for Honda. Especially if it's right around the media embargo releases.

Why would they hold cars that are ready for transport that makes no sense if they were going to hold them they would have held all of them I would think ?‍

For Lindsay, yeah I was kind of surprised? I'm not sure if the sales person was lying or not lol. After everything he said about 47k.

I'll see though, told them to keep me in the loop cause I'll go in person to make sure. He gave me a call instead of writing it in an e-mail like the other dealership did.

I called them up to see what they'd say and the gentleman I spoke to seemed to think the LOA fee (market adjustment) would probably float around 7-10k. What I also heard previously before this from another person there is that they mark SIs up 5k so I see no way they will sell this at MSRP or close to. Hopefully to whoever the buyer is, they get the best deal possible and are happy with their purchase.

Good luck guys!

Curious if mine is on a truck or still in Cali

The part that sucks for us in the snow belt weather has been great but will be turning soon enough. At this rate I'll have the car just in time for winter storage.

Yea, it'll arrive just in time for winter for those in the Northeast. And just in time for the mountains to lose their colors for me in GA. No tail of the dragon drives in beautiful fall colors.

We don't get much snow here, at least what I consider snow, so that shouldn't affect me so much. They shut down the area whenever someone spills a Slurpee. I'd still like some decent weather and ample time to break it in. We have a winter autocross series starting up soon and I would rather it be in the FL5 rather than a co-drive.

Random question out of pure boredom at this point. What do you guys plan to do for floor mats? I feel like the all season mats look terrible, but also need to protect the red lol.

Nice. Any idea if Civic hatch mats work for the FL5?

They bought Hansen to help streamline logistics. I’m in southeast and with this storm now coming through, I’m hoping it doesn’t delay even more.

so glad i'm not alone. looks like a lot of people had 11/7 ETA myself included. What's interesting is on honda.com where it used to say "1 in transit" to my dealer now it doesn't reflect that at all anymore.
