I got in touch with my sales rep a couple of days ago. Still no hard answers but he said that they're expecting MY2023 Civics in November and that the Type R might be among them.

Yeah you can see the increase on the website. Looks to be about another $1000 on top for MY23 civic sedan and hatch.

So October orders should happen in the next few weeks, let’s hope for news!

Not sure if this has been posted or not so I’ll leave this right here:

Ok, so I was thinking about those cars sitting in Redmond, CA. To anyone that knows, what happens once those cars are here? What is the process for taking a parking lot full of cars, and figuring out where to send them? And how long would it be normal for cars to sit somewhere like that before being shipped out?

Hopefully not too long. The only thing that has me worried is that my Golf R sat in port for months last year. I think those things started arriving in the USA late October/early November of ‘21? (Someone correct me if I’m wrong.) However, after arrival they sat in port for months. I didn’t get mine until February of this year (First Golf R the dealership received). It sat for months at port. I told them I didn’t want it detailed (for obvious reasons) and when I first saw it, it was incredibly filthy. Definitely had that look of “hasn’t moved in months” haha. Hopefully this will be more logistically favorable!

yes they sat in ports for months because for VW to allow every dealer had to have least one before going on sale.

Richmond, California is where Honda import/exports a good bit.

Those cars will ride by rail to to other holding yards/port across the country. From there they will ride by truck to the dealers.

Just a guess. Honda will have enough to cover most the dealer body at whatever date they choose for the on sale date. Maybe others will trickle in shortly after.

At least it’s good to know cars are arriving, however slow it may be, because for a while, people on here doubted cars would even ship until Oct-Nov, and stated that could take 45+ days, just to get here. So, I take this as a small victory. Even though Honda is being completely silent currently, things going on in the background look promising.

You can count me in that camp that doubted it.

It takes 45ish or so days to get from Japan to a dealer. These are no different I don't think.

Something will come out sooner than later I'm guessing.

I personally don’t see cars hitting dealers until sometime in November either, I’m just glad they aren’t beginning the shipping process from Japan, in November.

At this point I'm more concerned about getting a color I want. Wrapping wasn't something I was thinking about doing.

Thankfully, the US railroad strike was averted.

If the cars pictured in Port Richmond are for customer consumption, they will be at dealerships within 2-4 weeks. Those parking lots aren't storage areas and the only reason to deliberately stop them from moving through the port system would be a quality hold. Maybe if Honda considers their failure to share information a quality issue, they can keep the cars in limbo? hah.

I do wonder if they're still pre-prod/press cars but that is wayyyy too many cars for that purpose alone.
