Acura of Oakville had a black one in front of the main door as a display. Also a white in the back lot. Both will be picked up this week.

Back of the napkin math would put the ballpark at around 300, +-100.
There's apparently only 51 dealerships in Canada (+- a few), and some of those will be located in markets where they might sell 2-3 ITRs in a given year. Obviously bigger dealerships like Markham Acura will be getting a lot more, but even then I think it's reasonable to assume an average of 6-7 vehicles for MY 2023 per dealership.

Don't forget that most of the country didn't even get the ITS as of yet. My dealer in Quebec is waiting for his 2 first ITS by the end of July, one white, one black...

apparently more color combos will be available for 25MY+
In terms of colour, only black and white are available for the MY24. MY25+ will offer the full spectrum.
I got white, and one thing I did NOT expect was the sheer depth and sparkle the Acura white has. Under direct sunlight it looked like a disco ball. It was THAT Shiney, no even joking here. The paint they used was leagues better than anything I've seen on a Honda (I have a 23 CRV hybrid in urban grey as baby mover).
Ok let's get to the meats a potatoes. What does the M2 do better than the ITS:
- Outright speed sensation
- Highway / high speed driving
- interior, speakers, HUD/displays, comfort and etc
- Engine
- Seats
- NVH, insulation, engine noises and exhaust noises
Ok now what does the ITS do better.
- tranny, shifter, clutch
- sense of stability and ability to maneuver
- handling and weight feel
- FUN!!! I had a stupid grin ear to ear driving it slower
- Feel, it just felt like it wanted more of what I was giving it
- low end feel (sub 3.5k RPM)
- although the M2 sounds better, the ITS stock exhaust with its pop and bangs REALLY surprised me, it's great for a stock honda product lol
Sidenotes
- ELS is good, but it's not great HK in BMW is still 1 tier above
- road noise on the 407 highway was substantially louder and harsher in ITS vs M2.
- If you gave me another 40-50 WHP more in the ITS and a bit more camber + thicker rear sway bar, I'm inclined to say the ITS > M2 (in stock form).
With all that said, I will be parting ways with the ITS, as I have a buyer willing to take it off me at a decent premium.
HOWEVER!!!!, AFTER driving it and owning it for 2.5 days, I'm putting $$ in to get an MY25 car. I'm 100% owning this thing for life. I also want carbon vs. White
.
NONE of you guys waiting for an FL5/ITS will be disappointed, Its really really fucking good. For additional context, my old done-up MK6 GTI (coilovers, swaybars, subframe, bushings, -3.0 camber etc) did not come close to how tight the ITS felt.
As a historically Euro car guy, I gotta say, I get it now lol. I see what the fuss is all about with will-tuned JDM cars. Although, the FL5/ITS is at the pinnacle of this spectrum, FWD wise.
If you like lightweight cars, that can handle and have great low end you WILL like this car. Full stop.

Just got a call from one of my 2 dealers, 4 cars arrived and they want me to come in and discuss a deal which will include a bunch of extras. Now I’m not going to fall for this BS. They can keep their cars, not surprised about this, best of luck to everyone else
