Please do elaborate

all these rumors posted as facts. If you really believe Canada is only getting 500 of them in 3 years, I have a bridge to sell you. For reference Honda built 48000 FK8.

I get it, i guess the alternative is to say ops lying or Honda is full of shit?

Sounds awesome, but I’m trying to understand how dealers are making promises like this, when the car hasn’t even debuted? I guess in Canada, they get all the info before the rest of the world?

I’m actually in florida. Like I said not sure how true it is, just hoping it is haha

We are living in different times…Toyota is making nearly a quarter million less cars a year. Production on the FL5 will not be what the FK8 was.

take it as a grain of salt. Only people that actually knows how many will be sold is few C level executives in Honda Japan. Not some Honda employee in Canada. I almost guarantee Honda will build much as the demand will be met, these cars not build with unobtainium and they certainly have a higher profit margin than your typical civic.

Got it, shock and awe at first then a ramp up after the initial deliveries. That would mean some folks get bamboozled on price in the first run.

Yeah, we are in different times, but the GR Corolla is planning on 6,600/year, and the Golf R will be making plenty too. Can’t imagine Honda is the only car manufacturer, who’s like, “sorry, we are in different times.”

It may not be what the FK8 was, but it will be way more than what people are suggesting. Specifically when referring to the US.

No, Honda is actually getting 546 units for 3 years. There was a regional meeting yesterday, I attended both of them.

It is online but not like the LE ...You need to be at the dealer with the salesman and have a deposit of $1000,but that's in Quebec so i don't know how it works in the other province...but not all dealers are able to order,so call first

I can look into that but you're probably right. Then again my deposit overrides everyone else since it's a big one lol

Toyota planning on 6,600…we are talking about Toyota though, that number will be short and also they keep cutting production every month. The Gr86 has been out since last year and I’ve seen about 3-4 on the road…that’s not even a limited production car like the GR will be. I mean it’s really common sense…the way things are as of right now and will be for the foreseeable future, don’t expect this car to be all over the place what so ever.

yeh and the Hyundai guy told everyone there was only 400 Elantra N's being sent this year. Everyone lies. Take what you hear on the internet, especially on a forum to be a grain of salt.

I don’t expect it to be all over the place, shoot the FK8, after all these years, is still not a car I see “all over the place”, but I see no reason why, based on speculations, Honda won’t build similar 4-6k Type Rs a year in the US.

And obviously, like others have said, we don’t know any specifics yet, so everything you hear is just conjecture.

@fastSI @turbomike Do either of you have numbers on the Civic Type R sales numbers in Canada from 2017-2021? I couldn't find it anywhere online and I'd be curious to know how they compare.

We could at least guess… I think I read that a little over 19,000 were sold in the US from 2017-2021, and Canada is about 1/10 the population of the US, so maybe in the neighborhood of 1,900 total or 390/year…

Which, when put in perspective, makes these extremely small numbers people are freaking out over, seem realistically, just like the FK8.

 

[Orveezy]

lol…not even remotely close. You think the msrp will be $49k?

Please reread my break down.
41k msrp
49k markup

Because those numbers are not available online
