2 units all of 23 is a damn lie. Most Honda dealers have gotten least 4 FL5 by now and vol dealers have gotten more.

The one dealer I was working with to get the Type R only had a total of 1 allocated to them so far. Yikes. It likely depends on where he’s located.

I don't see my heated steering wheel listed!!!!
I'm guessing I'll have to make the standard Integra heated steering wheel accessory work somehow....sigh

I saw another one that had leather heated wheel listed. I’m thinking some lines are getting crossed from CA & US releases. Glad I’m in the US as we normally always get better options, pricing, allocation, etc.

Ratio’s Rides today at 4pm Central to get inside our cars & give us some more confirmation details.

Let’s regroup in a few hours & hack it out. Lol

I’m number 3 at a high vol dealer but not worried about the supply. It’s a 50k fwd hatchback. It’s a pretty niche car. This is probably only for the hardcore Honda fans.

I agree that Acura dealer is probably lying, but Honda dealers have not gotten that many FL5s. There's 1072 Honda dealers in the US, and according to that dealership scraping tool the guy on CivicXI built, there's only been about 1200 FL5s brought here so far.

Anyone know what percentage of Type R is for the civic. That might help gauge if demand will be met

It’s pretty hard to draw that comparison, as the Civic is a global platform.

You’d really need to look at US-only data for normal civics and the Type-r to get a more accurate idea.

This isn’t necessarily a list of all options. This is a list of dealer-installed accessories that this dealer is adding to increase the price.

I wonder if they're holding that many because of the stop-sale.

it’s definitely not the 20k markup

Just hopped on the typexi forum. Man the hate on the Type S is strong… almost like there is no buyers remorse. Gotta hate on the car if it makes your purchase feel better.

I noticed that too, it’s bizarre how much hate there is when the cars are almost the same besides the way they look.

Well said. A lot of people who are trying to justify why they spent 20k on markup…

both cars look great and both serve a purpose. Neither car is worth 20k over msrp… that’s for sure

I think the average markup paid was around 7k on that forum, but your point still stands. Some people really bought into the fear mongering about scarcity and some people also were just really impatient and couldn’t wait for the market to cool.
