The title literally says "In Canada"

Yeah I honestly would be happy if I could get just a 5k markup. At this point I've accepted the fact that I just have to bend over and take itSooner or later (prolly after 3-5 years), we might not be able to get one of these new type r at all.
So, Im going to ignore and shut every cheap ass down, pay at least a 10% mark up to MSRP on this new type R to snatch it as soon as I can.
Some people who don't understand markups (for certain areas) will wait and wait and wait and there won't be anyone trying to sell type r at the end.
Personally, I love breaking in manual cars from day 1 myself. With all the joy I'm going to have, 4-9k markup is nothing... at least that's what my dealer would charge more on top of increased MSRP

To be fair, at the end of the thread after the entire title, not something that’s obvious, considering all the people who’ve posted thinking this was somewhere other than Canada.
how about we lead with the Canada part?

Thats a reading comprehension problem lol. Its not at the end of the thread after the entire title. Its literally part of the title
And to be fair I haven't seen anyone make a comment thinking that this was the case for the US. The comments are just speculating about if we will have it that bad here as well.

Im worried. Will U.S be getting more type r than Canada? Like we can go to dealer buy type r when we could can afford one or one want like fk8.

Dude, the US has 10 times the population of Canada. Of course they are going to sell more than 180/year. Canadas population is like 38 million, it’s like the population of California alone.

Here’s the email response from my sales guy. I am a little nervous.
“We are aware of the limited supply of Type R and we hope to get two. We have deposits on two and we are very optimistic you will get your Type R. I will let you know the minute I have any additional information for you. Please do not hesitate to call me to discuss. The good news is this will make the Type R very rare and probably more valuable.”

It could be just selection bias. The only reason why we know is because some members here are somewhat high up in the food chain there. I dont think there are any members here like that. This seems to confirm the rumors about the plans for the UK.
US will definitely be more but its hard to imagine that itll be the only country that will have more units than the FK8. Kinda sucks but I still want to get one
