Canadian dealer asked what colour Type R I want

[Anthonyfa18]

UPDATE: Just received a message from the GM I’m listed in saying my FL5 is set to come October - November if no setbacks or delays which is in line with @Shichi ’s. Pricing is TBD still unfortunately.

He’s in BC

Were those an option or were they already on the car?

They were on the car, forced options if you will…

The only add I did was the 10 year warranty. Otherwise it would have been 66k out the door.

 

[onepointsix]

Anyone with an FL5 have any of the accessories (Alcantara wheel, CF spoiler, etc?)

 

[惹Raizzelle]

No. No. This doesn’t add up….

Mine came with:

ceramic
3m
tint
truck liner
all weather floor mats
10 year ext. warranty $3000

tax in out the door I paid 69k.

Yeah. That’s why I’m gonna negotiate with them once the car comes. Thanks for sharing yours btw!

I’m from BC, but the dealer is in AB (Another problem I’ll try to solve once I seal the deal ). He can’t give a definite answer but they are just expecting 1 or 2 more then thats it for their allocation unfortunately.

Meanwhile: LE FK8 spotted while renewing my license in Burnaby, BC.
Really pops out with the Phoenix Yellow and Carbon Fiber add-ons

I don't think the LE came with any additional carbon fiber bits, at least not in the US. Just a black roof, hood scoop, and mirror caps.

Sorry. What I meant was aftermarket carbon (wasn’t shown in the pic) he added. Not the roof. Wasn’t able to take a detailed pic as I was leaving. But thank you for correcting. 🫡

I’m good either day next week, following week I’m out of town. Guys, next week work?

Yeah I'm good Wednesday

No problem.

If they force things like the ceramic coating then demand that they do the wheels as well. If I was thinking back then I would’ve pushed for that.

Also I’ve never seen an LE in the wild so that pretty cool!

 

[RazgrizOne]

So sounds like the plan is for Wednesday?

Any suggestions on a meeting point?

@Raizzelle @POPNTEC

Curious what your approach would be I've been running through scenarios myself and my thought process is that, any push back, and they can just find another buyer.
I feel like it wouldn't be very hard for them to say no since there's probably a line out the door waiting for these things.

I pretty much feel like I'm pigeon held to whatever the hell they want to throw at me. Obviously it doesn't hurt to push back or walk away entirely, but damn, would've wasted so much time waiting, it's depressing LOL.

@onepointsix @Sazabi @RazgrizOne
I might be able to make next Weds, supposed to be in the Sherway Gardens area for a work dinner, if it's anywhere near there LMAO.

I’ll try to make it out Wednesday as weeknights don’t exactly fare well for me. Let me know time and location, and I’ll try to reach.

Funny I had this with the sales guy at Acura. Honestly, they didn’t budge and I was probably finessed by the sales team. They didn’t do anything about the add ons and just said I’ll move down the list if you don’t want to pay this.

Yeah fuck, seems like such a lose/lose situation . On one hand YOLO, but on the other hand I feel like the Lube is necessary, can't give in to the FOMO.

Just a suggestion. How is North York? Might be a good mid way point for everyone assuming we all live in the GTA.
BMO training ground has a big open parking lot.

I've seen both Sherway and BMO Training. I'm good with either. I'm staying late at work Wednesday, so either place is almost equal distance.
