It's not a random number. The badge on the dash is global production. The US hasn't received many FL5 compared to the FK8 because the Integra Type S exists.
It doesn't make sense to put a random number on what supposedly be a serialized badge! It is random in the sense that the badge doesn't match up with the VIN, but that badge is serialized. So, if it's up to 50xxx, then they've made 50xxx FL5 worldwide!
Around 50K units total for the world, not for the US alone. The US get a less than half that number.
From the Article:
The article is clearly labeled as being reported on Aug 19 2025 and there is mention of MY26 in the title at the top of the page. You would have clearly seen it if you weren’t so busy selectively editing . All I did was post a new article to the thread.
Okay cool. I’m telling you the info is old and backed it up. Articling mentions MY25 production run.
So does this mean it even though it’s a 2026 model year, it’s considered a 2025 build?
Yes, if I understand your question properly.
Thanks for the clarification and congrats on securing your Type R.
Ordered one, signed one, deposited $5k, received receipt and config profile at 12pm Tuesday. I can confirmed this is true lol. My gut feeling was yup this is the last lot, it’s now or never, so I bit the bullet without hesitation.
