Did I get robbed paying 5k$ over msrp considering I live in Hawaii ( Honolulu )?

Hi I'm new here, and my first time buying a car and fell in love with a type r, so I recently bought a 2024 Type R CW that's sadly still "In Transit" according to my dealer, let me hear your opinion on this, any kind will do.

$5K isnt terrible, but its also not great. At least its not the $10-$20K others have paid.

i know and its crazy but i heard a lot of people also getting them for msrp which was nice. Im just hoping insurance would not be so high cuz it my first time owning a car.

You likely didn't get robbed at $5K over. What have buyers in HI been able to do on pricing? Even if you purchased from the mainland at MSRP, after shipping there wouldn't be much of a net gain for it to be worth it.

I've only went to one dealer because mostly fl5 are on FB marketplace and we only have 3 honda dealers in Honolulu. and idk if those price are with fees or just the mark up it self.

You probably did just fine. I wouldn't worry about it. Now it's time to create the roadmap for how you want to build the car. You can collect parts while you wait!

lol thats what i basically did, i already ordered me some goodies. hopefully my dealer is not lying to me when he said it will come within a month.

Better hope the dealership doesn't decide to add more markup over the 5k once the car is actually on the lot.....

Why would this happen if the deal is signed and completed?

@CantWait - Well, if you "can't wait" then you'll have to settle with the deal on hand... ; )

That's what I paid December 14th 2022....5k over msrp....it's cool ​

Regardless of what you paid, if you keep the car for 20 years, it will be a great deal.

It a good deal if you feel it a good deal. Your area sucks though considering you have very limited options. Just enjoy the where you are at and your car.
