What did you pay for your FL5?

[Bryvno]

Prices seem to creep back up during summer

I'm late to game. Been doing some light research, here and there. Finally took time today to called a few dealers, visit some walk in, and read some forums today.

Some of these dealerships got a big middle finger sticker. No doubt about it the fact living in California makes it harder to find at MSRP. I got patience, ain’t no way I’m paying more than 45k for a Honda.

Well big congrats & welcome to the club! How are you loving the car so far? First CTR? What are your plans in terms of styling, upgrades and performance?

Keep at it bro, eventually it will come. Have you tried searching out-of-state?

Thanks!! I am loving this car, it's my second CTR... I previously owned an FK8 for 6 years and loved that car dearly. I was a bit hesitant with the choice to trade for the FL5 but I am very happy I did as it checks off all the boxes for me.

I kept my FK8 bone stock for the entirety of those 6 years so I will definitely be modding the FL5. Ordered springs and did the PPF already and I plan on going FBO etc down the road.

I know the feeling man, I had a DC5-R up until I moved here 8 years ago and to this very day I regret selling that car. I'm eying the Japanese market so let's see what happens when they become closer to 25 y.o.

$53k. I got the tech package and the all weather floor mats, plus championship white paint, I got the service plan, and the extended warranty. Picked it up from the dealer on 11/08/24 with only 5 miles on the clock.

What tech package?

Don't mind me, I'm just dumb.

Just noticed this thread. I purchased my 2025 Type R around the beginning of this month (November) and paid MSRP, no addons or extras. Got it in Ohio.

From my experience and searching, most dealerships in surrounding states are still charging 2k-5k markups on these cars. The markup is not as big as it use to be, but there are dealerships selling them at MSRP too!

I think what we have seen is for a majority of dealers, asking is above MSRP. However, if you press hard enough, go in person, I have been hearing stories that dealers will usually relent and come down to MSRP. Probably even more so now for snow belt dealers with Type Rs in stock.

Happy hunting with year end deals!

MSRP seems to be the standard right now rather the exception. So the paradigm does seem to a flipped thankfully. I think the winter and the probability of a facelift in 2026 might be assisting there.
