Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

[katch922]

Rim is leather, Alcantara is optional, it's in the accessories. And I doubt seats are heated since they are manual racing seats. But I def would welcome those. Heck ventilated seats would be nice ;p

Congrats on finding a spot! I can keep an ear out, but if we are not obligated to accept our allocation and can wait for next, and cw comes in and person ahead of me skips, I don’t think I’ll be able to say no. Not sure if that makes me selfish, I’m conflicted replying to this lol. If they cannot skip and I am made aware of it, I can definitely ask if they would swap for RR. I’m also in Quebec and not seeing other peoples locations at the moment from mobile, don’t remember where you are located.

thank you will believe it when it is all done lol, i am in Ontario, ideally the way i see this working is 2 people with similar delivery dates and both are#1 on the list just simply swap positions at their respective dealerships prior to taking ownership ..you go to my dealership and i go to yours and we both sign the bill of sale there, would have to loop in the sales reps in advance to make sure everyone is aligned and there is no misunderstanding...goes without saying no one is out here to be malicious

Nope. not even what color I preferred.. No contact since mid April. I've given up hope at this dealer.

ugh, i should have put my name down at another dealer at least..

Like clockwork, the dealer has screwed me over. I was 2nd, deposit down sept 16 2021. Now without explanation, I'm 3rd. What's worse, they retracted their 3 car for 2023 and it's now 2 cars with one 2024 model, none of which have ETAs.

I would suggest everyone ask their dealer to verify their spots.

 

[RoidRage]

Don't just ask them about "spot on the list" ask them how they are handling allocations.

First come first serve @ MSRP or deal by deal assessment, aka trade in + options or some other process.

I can almost garuntee the larger dealers will be assessing who they will want to sell to, based on what u bring to the table.

Back to my earlier points, if you want a chance at these kind of dealers it's up to you to "offer" them, otherwise you will be passed up.

 

[katch922]

Sucks, wouldn't it be something else? If it was just about add-ons, I'm sure dealer would ask you about it. If you're punted like that it's probably something else. Like the guy knew someone and got hooked up at the dealershipdealership.

Keep looking for dealerships man. You'll find an honest one.

Suggestions, Kings Honda in NS? You'd be 3rd in line with a deposit. Maybe get one in 2024?
Or look around other military towns. You'd be surprised how many cars they sell.

Good luck, but ya I'd be pulling my deposit at the sketchy dealers, you're just wasting your time.

just walked out of the local dealership Mississauga Ontario, they gave me back my deposit and said they would still hold my#4 spot.... they are still sticking to we don't know anything yet, and honda.ca will be making a portal for customers to put orders through and it is not the build n price link on honda.ca they said thats just to price out

they said until we get allocations we would start calling ppl on the list i said how come other dealerships already know they are getting 2 or 3 over 2 or 5 years and you guys know nothing ...they said if another dealership gave #2 go with them and encouraged to hold both spots and see whichever hits first....other dealerships are doing non refundable deposits if customers backs out ...they said thats not right

in any case if i ever get contacted and i already secured one i d be sure to let you guys know


i still really want a CW so in case someone is #1 and been told getting allocated CW in 2023 and they want a RR let me know

All deposits until you sign for a VIN and build that is counter signed by the financing manager IS refundable. Again they are lying.

No dealership deposit taken THUS far regardless of what anyone says is refundable, in Canada.

Some shady salesman tried to tell me I'm lower in the list than I am, and when I called the dealer to confirm I found out nothing has changed and still have my spot.

 

[Apex Carver]

Does anyone know if the allocations provided this far is for the first batch? Or for the whole run?
