price went up.. like 1k? I guess?

IIRC msrp was originally $50,050, and then the price was adjusted to $51,780 (to reflect freight and PDI), to now $53,258.

Oh damn you're right, still listed as a '23, hopefully no more price hikes, but theres still hope if they received 2 back to back within the span of about a month.

The largest issue is dealers going radio silent, and lack of communication.

Side note for those guys still considering the GR86, doesnt get more special than this https://www.motortrend.com/news/2024-toyota-gr86-trueno-edition-first-look-thunderclap/

thanks for tracking the price lol i think they did the same with regular civic or Si.. hiked price mid year. I guess they dont care to wait till the next MY to hike the price in the current environment. going to be 54-55k sooner than later..

No worries, I tracked it back for myself cause it def seemed to be a larger than normal hike. Wonder if dealers are gonna start being more proactive if they see people jumping ship to the ITS lol.

I hope so, I know I am personally leaning towards ITS.
CTR is an amazing car, but it would be my only car and with wife and a kid, want something more toned down (interior)and softer ride..
ITSs alre already arriving at Canadian dealers too..
I hope its not a long wait for both R and S deposit holders.

Contacted a sales advisor at Acura, apparently Canada is only getting 250 ITS (????) allocations as of right now. Idk if this is true or not but hopefully it's the latter.


Also paid the honda dealer a visit. The only thing they could tell me is that I'm next. No updates regarding Type Rs directly but they did say Honda wait times are getting shorter.

I guess they meant the first black/white batch? I think it is the same for US the launch edition for w/e. from what I heard from Acura dealers, more will be arriving in 3-4 months... but i guess nothing is confirmed.

I asked him to clarify and he said that's the word he got for the entire run life. Though with over 200 something orders at the dealer, he says he won't be surprised if Acura suddenly gives us more.

Fingers crossed that he just has bad info lol

It certainly doesn't seem to add up with the stories we're hearing over on the Integra forum..

I read the number somewhere before, but I can't see it being 250 ITS for the entire run. LOL that would make it even more "special" than the CTR! . Doesn't make sense considering how many have popped around the GTA dealerships at least.

ya I think some sales people just are not aware.. like ITS price was out for a couple of weeks when I asked one of the sales man and they didnt know detailed pricing..
also not so big dealers are expecting 7-9 a year, Kelowna dealer is expecting 4-5 this year alone..
250 for the entire run makes no sense..

This says 300 for 2024 model year. Not sure how accurate, but I saw that number being thrown around on Integra forums too, which is not indicative of anything since article could be saying things based on forum posts like what happened with CTR. https://driving.ca/reviews/first-drive/2024-acura-integra-type-s-performance

It's not many but definitely better than CTR numbers.

With CTR prices creeping up, I'm feeling even better for my yolo purchase of ITS. At this rate though, I doubt I'll be able to trade it for a CTR, but really glad because my Honda dealer did a soft deal with me for +10k. So by the time they actually want to sell me one, it would be so much more expensive than ITS it won't even be funny anymore.

(Edit) nevermind

Third CTR for Newmarket Honda, already spoken for. Also looks like there has been a price adjustment.

My best guess is their price includes some kind of option. It could easily be the leather shiftknob and alcantara wheel options, because the Honda Newmarket front page still shows:

I saw that! I love the performance pack option that will be available, if the GR86 arrives before the FL5 then it'll definitely be getting that option thrown on. Brembo brakes gives it a more premium/serious sports car look.
