Australian 2025 Type R orders. Check-in here.

[joshinthecity]

Having just discovered I'm not the only one here who has placed an order for a 2025. I thought it might be worth starting a seperate thread, so as not to hijack existing threads with our excited ramblings.
Feel free to check in.

I'm Josh. From the coast south of Sydney.
I ordered a 2025 CTR, Championship white.
2 mins after orders opened on the 19th. $5k deposit paid, an enthusiastic and helpful dealer.
$79k AUD.

I would suggest to expect a call tomorrow morning. We ordered at exactly the same time.
My call came just before 5pm. Maybe they will continue the calls when business hours kick off in the morning. I hope so.

Let’s hope so, I transferred my deposit at 9:30am 19th and signed my contract at 12:34pm. Surely 130 units not gone in 34 minutes right

Right.
I'm with you.
stay positive. I'll say a prayer to our lady of blessed acceleration.

I tried to ask the guy who called me. Unfortunately he was as clueless as me lol. I don’t blame him tho, this lot seems really like the very last batch that wasn’t supposed to happen but Honda AU decided to give us a final farewell.

Yeah. Agree.
I spoke to my dealer last night and he was the same, he truly has no information yet.
He checked again today and still nothing.
There are some whispers in the Honda network that there might be cars actually currently "on the ground" here in Oz already.. But I don't know that as a fact. It was definitely implied though.

I reckon someone posted on Facebook last week, there was a blue one on a truck on its way to west Melbourne.

Oh ! Ok.
Maybe there's some truth to what I heard after all.
Which would be fantastic news and would obviously mean we would not be waiting long for our cars....
I'll try not to get my hopes up too much in regards to this, but that's good to hear.
