Thereās actually more proof suggesting that there wonāt be a 2026 than that there will be, lol. Where are the 2026 spy shots? Any test mules? Any parts or sales guidance?
Going by Hondas history, all of the above should have been seen/known/disseminated some time ago. Heck, the 2025 was...
Agreed.... most of the under MSRP deals I've seen are on CW. I think just because of the sheer amount of them that are produced.
Things are going to start heating up though literally and figuratively, so this may be the last good month to grab a deal.
Just some interesting tidbits I came across, it looks like Honda officially announced the FK8 facelift on February 19th 2020. However, spy photos of the 2020 started emerging almost a full year prior, in April 2019.
Even if we are to assume that the prospective 2026 R arrives "late", let's...
Maybe itās the Mandela effect talking, but when the FL5 was announced, I could have sworn that Honda threw up a slide that showed projected production numbers only through 2025. Would love to find that if it exists lol
I donāt think youāre in the minority though. Anyone that doesnāt have one or plans to buy one is going to be on the side of there being a 2026+ and then youāll have the reverse on the other side (with exceptions of course). Copium if you will š
Lots of discussion and speculation about this in other threads, so figured I'd centralize it here. Will there be a 2026 FL5? If so, will that incorporate a facelift? Any spyshots, mules, leaks on the 2026 out there? Will Japan emissions standards impact production? et al.
Feel free to sticky :)
Not for nothing, but isnāt it odd that we havenāt seen a test mule, any type of spy photos, leaks etc. of this supposed facelift thatās arriving within the next 6 months or so?
Maybe we need to spin up a 2026 speculation thread at this point š
So the 2026 will be identical to the 2025 then? I was recently at my large-ish dealer and my SA said that their "rep" had just informed them that there wouldn't be a 2026 FL5. Thought it was fishy, but he was convincing.
