Same ^

But speaking to two dealers a mnth or so ago sounds like Canada is looking at a March-June batch

Some early US FL5s that were produced last Aug reported issues with clear coat/paint
Seat squeaking
and CEL
non are major and all are being covered under manf. warranty

but perhaps these are additional delay factors as Japan is addressing these issues

or it could be that UK, NZ and Australia and indo pacific got their 1st batch recently and considering we got our 1st batch already we go back into the Q
A March - April delivery would be perfect for me as I am in laval quebec, if you donā€™t mind me, asking which two dealer did you speak to me with this information

From FB group posts, the statesā€™ dealerships are down to 4k - 5k markup, and those dealers asking for more do not sell their cars. Meanwhile, My local dealers have 3 SGP FL5 sitting in the showrooms and are asking $82k, $82k & 89k. The good news is that they're all unsold.

My guess they will be building a lot more cars for Canada and the 500ish number is BS.
Westwood Honda has sold 2 of them in the last 3 months.
Have you heard any updates? Im supposed to be one of the next.. but they are radio silent. No updates, nothing

saw this article recently, i think this helps put into perspective the fulfillment process and demand for this car, it's pretty clear Honda made the US their top priority, hopefully we get what we can here in Canada and may be they produce more in the future since the demand really exceeded Honda projected expectation for sales

Any other canadians get their cars yet? My dealer in gta still hasn't gotten even their first!
A dealer I asked before told me they don't think they will get any Type R. Recently, they received their first one and the sales guy told me their second one should arrive before summer.
Another dealer that received the first batch back in Oct / Nov already had their SECOND Type R received in Jan.

I had a dream last night that someone stole my FL5. Also now that Iā€™ve had it a few months I realize just how lucky I am to have gotten one so early in the game! How lucky I am to have gotten one at all. I really hope Canada gets a nice flood of cars this spring cause I actually feel guilty being the only one around here with one.

Enjoy for all of us @POPNTEC!

Curious, how much are you paying for insurance? I haven't started asking but wondering what it would be for the GTA.
