Not gonna lie, the deposit lists never really meant anything TBH. They can skirt it if they really want to. Im pretty low @ one dealer in the GTA, but I pretty much said, listen Ill add $7.5K in options+ trade in a car to secure an allocation.

They are only getting 2 in 2023, that list went out the window as soon as they heard 2 units. its a free for all for-profit dealership. I'm not even sure where my +7.5K stands, but it sure beats a #1 spot with no addons that's for sure.

Also, in most dealerships employees arent allowed to buy first allocations, its always to customers to maximize profits. Dealer will give 2 fucks about employees, $$ talks.
Shit I thought about doing this but didn’t end up putting that option out to the sales reps I spoke to. Maybe I can do that now lmaoo.

You guys are bad, let's hope dealerships are good enough to honour their word. Non of this bidding the other guy out :p Lets hope I hear from my dealership tomorrow, not gonna lie a little nervous, let's hope I don't get shafted.
I'm of the mindset if you really want something, better to do what you can to get the odds in your favor. I don't like to leave things to chance or circumstance.

This is why I dont tell anyone which dealership I am with :p not until at least paperwork is complete. I think I'll hear from them tomorrow, I'll keep y'all posted. I still think it's going to be the same, waiting for deliveries to take place. I'm still betting on Dec to March delivery timeframe in Canada.

And it's not chance or circumstance, it's called honour and being a decent human being. Not being a scumbag, stabbing everyone in the back to get a car or make a few bucks. You see how well thats working in the States.

Unfortunately, that's not how actual life works in reality lol.

If you want the discuss honor, or ethics, the dealerships control who gets what and when. The power was never in the buyers hand. Any grievances you have is with them, not the individuals who are trying to maximize their chances of obtaining what they want.

If I can control the outcome of a specific situation, why wouldn't I try lol. Instead of being a passenger and hoping things work out.

car officially is on sale as of today been glued to the Honda.ca website since last night checked at midnight, checked at 1 checked at 4am (ps: my 3 month woke us up lol) and again now, nothing so far their site still says learn more, nothing in the build section either lol...


their social and their site don't line up... or may be their WordPress lead isn't there anymore lol...

this is not like the 2021 LE where there is a portal to take orders and car was sold out in 4 mins in Canada... something might show up sooner or later but would most likely be an intake form....
