I had my deposit in day after Type R was announced, and there is still one more person ahead of me... Biggest Honda Dealer maybe in W. Canada and they've only received 3 so far. I'm fifth, so I guess next year...

I feel ya. I've had my deposit in before it was actually released. Dealer has received 1/3 so far and I've turned down 2 ITS deliveries so far. I've set a hard limit that Im taking the MY25 ITS car once it comes if the CTR doesnt arrive by then, done playing games.

Same spot I was in. Hopefully you get either one before the summer ends so at least you can enjoy way you should.

From what I gather there are more Type Rs sitting on dealer lots in the US right now than the whole 3 year allocation of cars for Canada. Honda Canada really screwed up.

Hopefully nothing bad. @Shichi had a bad experience with them recently...
Still waiting to meet with them lol.

Highly recommend everyone to avoid servicing your car there as they will joyride it and unplug your dash cams.

Sales dept was decent enough imo

How’d you pull that off?!
I honestly don't know! I don't know if the dealer made a mistake or because I put in my deposit when the Type R was released but I didn't question it. I've also been with this dealer for like 20 years. Got my S2000 from them. They were great. Didn't push any extras. I just added the Alcantara steering wheel and may add the red shift knob later.

Congrats BTW!!
I must say I've been super fortunate. Even the Casio Type R watch I managed to get that for MSRP when you guys posted about it. I googled it and some watch store at Union station just happened to have one.

I wish I was this lucky with everything.

Which dealer??
Id say but I don't want to get anyone in trouble if it was a mistake. I got it for $51,300

I do know they had 5 allocations and I was #3 and the others are spoken for.
