Not surprised by the 315 hp figure. Their PR team carefully worded the previously released statements.
"... most powerful Honda production vehicle ever offered in the U.S"
Not sure if Honda will create a new one or update it, but the LogR app has been in existence already.

Added two more to the Google Sheets from what I spotted on Reddit. One of which is Honda of Seattle. This dealer won't do markups, but they will do mandatory accessories. Unfortunately, this dealer doesn't think they will get the car nor are they doing a waitlist.
Make sure to not let the dealer detail your new car before they hand it over to you. They'll probably put swirls in your paint. At worst, they could wreck your car like one detailer did to a Nissan Z at a dealer in Puerto Rico.
The $3k markup is an ask. People don't have to agree. It could very well be that the others who were also interested in the car was adamant about $0 dealer adjustments. Or they took the best price they got from the dealer that you were at and shared it with another dealer to see if they could...
Honda can go lean on their marketing because this car basically sells itself. Send some of those marketing folks into procurement to find more computer chips and wire harnesses!
I wonder how many out of the 400 are set aside to be turned into TC models for Honda Racing Line members since these folks probably aren't considered "general users."
Different engine, so take what you want from it if anything at all, but I still found it interesting nonetheless.
TL;DR: On a stock ECU, cat back exhaust showed no difference on the dyno. Full exhaust system showed roughly 8-12 HP difference.
I'll be in the minority here with the stock exhaust. Personally, I'm glad they didn't resort to burbles and pops to try to make it sound more exciting.
