Dealership called me today and said they have a black one coming in soon, I asked the salesman about ADMs and told him that I'm not comfortable paying more than 5k$ ADM in this current market. He said he will talk to his manager and this is what he sends me after lol

These stupid mark ups aren't going to hold for long. I know some people dont mind throwing away the extra 20k to have it first but unfortunately those are the one's hurting the rest of us waiting it out. I've had dealers tell me " We've called around to see what other dealers are doing and theirs are selling for $15-20k above so we're asking the same". It's ridiculous lol.

Cape Girardeau Honda in MO has MSRP only but the list is 10 people long

West Herr Honda Lockport is also MSRP only but NY customers only
Oh dang, I didn’t look at Cape. I’m on a bunch of lists in KS and MO, Jay Wolfe in KC called me, they want a $20k ADM and that was a very short conversation.

Carbon Wing in the back....go back for wheels on Friday...forgot to snap a shot...sorry guys (my bad).

First off, I completely agree with crash____ 's assessment of the FL5...
But let me confirm this car is amazing! I feel no different from the FK8, except (like someone mention before) Sports mode feels like FK8's R mode, and it's not punishing at all. what can be annoying is freeway stretches with equally spaced horizonal lines; This FL5 feel very solidly built; nothing rattled; seats are just amazing!

This car does not want to drive slow! :) it want's to move! 6th gear doing 80 and I don't think I even at 3000 rpm yet. I couldn't really trash, as condition around the SF Bay Area was scatter showers, so roads are wet.

I'll be going back on Friday to pick up my wheels, so I'll snap some shots of the wheels.
we opened one to look and feel; it's pretty light...I'll scale when I get them home....and still have to order tires.

I don't know what else I can...does it feel more badass in person next to the FK8, yes! Is it more badass than the FK8, yes! Are the flares real, yes!!! :dance:

more to come guys!
