Hey guys... I'm a newb to this forum and super geeked to be a new CTR (FL5) owner. I arrived here by accident, luck, fate or maybe all of the above. I'm a self-admitted Honda fanboi and have spent the last 3 years over on the 11th gen Accord forum. I had a 2020 Accord 2.0 which I was quite happy with and not really looking to part with. I'm not really sure why , but I decided to open an email from my Honda dealership about offers to upgrade my car. Typically I would either delete or skip right over these types of emails. So I started swiping thru the pages of the dealerships inventory and like on the 6th page there she was sitting all by herself... 2023 Championship White Civic Type R. I'm kind of freaking out because I have not seen one FL5 in my city and really not many of the 10th gen CTRs. To make this long story shorter, I happen to be friends with the sales manager at the dealership as well as a couple of the salespersons. I made an appointment for Saturday and was somehow was able to hammer out a deal to buy her. Did I pay too much? ... Yes. Did I really need this car?... No. My wife refers to it as my Mid LIfe Crisis and that is probably true, but it's just money and you only live once. I'm looking forward to learning from other owners experience's on this forum.
