Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

[J_D]

FL5 is a so much fun in winter. When you do a tight turn, you get lift off oversteer because of the agile handling assist and VSA setup. It's way more aggresive than my old FK8 - I've had to catch it a few times.

Reminds me of a baby RWD setup lol

I got mine in December last year. Winter is going so here comes the vroom!

Congrats yours finally came! Mine arrived in December too. Cant wait to take it out now that the weather is getting better.

After several months (since Oct 24) of no deliveries to Canada (refer to last couple months of Honda news release). Finally see another 120 cars coming to Canada/mexico. It brings to total of 645 type R to these markets. More ppl should able to receive their cars soon-ish?

Will this be the last shipment remain to be seen.

Interesting - Based on the numbers we got back in January, it would have made it seem like we were at the tail end of units shipped here, with roughly 30-40 still to be released. I just looked at Honda's website to see what pricing is like for the Passport here, and don't even see the Type R on the website anymore. Maybe those units are for Mexico...?

Someone mentioned on a type r group I’m a part of, that these extra Type R’s coming to Canada may be from the US, and are being reallocated here due to tariffs. Not sure of the validity of this.

They would need to be federalized for our market, so doubtful. I think we are in the same group. Apparently Performance Honda has three coming in and Classic Honda has six.

I'm assuming we're just getting whatever number we're supposed to be getting left, the 30-40 left. If we do get extra that would be nice.

I saw on reddit that they're getting another increase of units over there, specifically Boost Blue. If I can find the post, I'll link it here.

Any idea when these might be coming in?

Wow they did remove the Type R from Honda Canada’s website.
They also removed the link for “learn more”.

Yeah, was surprised to see it removed already. None of the links for the Type R for accessories work either. Another sign it’s the end of the line for Canada at least

I have no idea if its even true.

 

[ILX6SPEED]

Anyone receive theirs recently or heard of any coming in? I find it hard to believe they are truly finished. Would be an incredibly short run. Fingers crossed for those still waiting.

Looks like a Rallye Red is incoming in Vancouver. Called the dealer and they said they will do MSRP, but will require a trade and will be undervaluing the trade by $10k or more...

We haven't had any new units come through in a while. Dealerships trying to screw people over not a surprise unfortunately.

Timing is pretty in line with the two US MY25 ships that docked a week or two ago based on roastduck’s thread.

Probably a few more incoming units throughout this week and the coming ones across Canada, if I had to guess.
