2023 Civic Type R FL5 US Sales Figure = 3,345 Units

[djl526blue]

Hello. Still new to this group. My vin ends in 3830. Don't know my plate number because the car is in the garage for the winter. I know the dealer only received the car on November 24th and I purchased the car on December 20th. So it was certainly late 2023 production. There were already a few dozen 2024's for sale advertised in Autotrader in December. Maybe they don't start the VIN's for sale at zero for the model year if they have to produce a certain number of press cars for review purposes. I guess I can believe 3,345 sold in 2023. Seems reasonable that a few hundred cars might be languishing on lots when city dealers were asking "market adjustments" of $5 to $20K. Crazy markups, but I guess it's "whatever the market will bear".

I got a 2024 two weeks ago and my vin ends in 0261. Does that mean it’s a very early ‘24 model?

Yes. There is a digit change earlier in the VIN for 24 models.

That would be 261 of 2024 so it would have been on the 1st shipment.

It just sux for us in Canada, I know a few people try to get one and we can’t, dealers are only getting one car a year

Yup, only 500 ish over the three years! My ottawa dealer had his 23 (red) aready sold, but I had the option of their 24 or 25 allocation, so my fl5r will be a CW 25 model.
