What did you pay for your FL5?

[BayouRFL5?]

CW 2025 $44,783.73 including $387 doc fee, $15 title fee, $20 registration. I'll pay 6.25% sales tax on$44,396.73 and TX inspection fee ( less than $50 - rates changed recently) when the title arrives in about 4 weeks. I live in Texas and purchased in Ohio. Picked up 1/2 and drove it back 1/3. No adds. If anyone likes boost blue, they had 2 available as of 1/2 and will sell at the same price.

If you ever need service check out Reggie Jackson honda and get with Tim. He is amazing and also has a CTR. He has even installed a few of my aftermarket parts and diagnosed a issue that I had. You won't be sorry

comical what they quoted me when i inquired there lol (and i bought my gti from hunter at their vw store in cary)

I just checked Ganley Honda's website where I purchased my 2025 CW Type R from. They still have the 2 boost blue, but now they have a black one also for anyone looking. The black one should be slightly cheaper.

@BayouRFL5? How was your drive back in the snow with stock tires?

 

[BayouRFL5?]

The tires were horrible in very little snow/slush. I had a couple close calls after about 50 miles on the road on my way back to Texas. I grew up in the snow belt area of NE Ohio driving cars that didn't even have traction control. After the 2nd incident, I took about an hour break and decided I would try to get back on the road one more time. If I had a 3rd incident, I would have found a place to drop off the car and fly back to Houston. I'm enjoying the car now and hope it will never see salt again.

Well I'm impressed. If I'm reading this right you got your FL5 for under MSRP, and did not pay destination fees either. Good job!

Everyone pays Destination & Handling Fees and it's $1,150. There's no way around it in the same way there's no way around the Gas Guzzler Tax. The dealership may discount the car below MSRP and that's their prerogative; however, you're still paying the mandatory fees/expenses associated with the vehicle purchase.

Either way, outside of the Texas state inspection, and state sales tax of 6.25% you saw what I paid. The MSRP on the car is $47,145.

As I mentioned before they had 2 boost blue remaining when I picked up my car if anyone is intersted. They will probably sell at the same price at least until it starts to warm up around March. I was given that price without really having to work for it because they will sit until spring.

That's about 5% under MSRP, I think that's the best deal I've seen. That's less then one of the last 21's I was trying to buy after the mark up they wouldn't get rid of. I don't care how they word it when I'm buying I'll pay 10k for nitro filled tires if the bottom line is better. Unless they announce the end after 25 these prices are gonna keep going down.

 

[BayouRFL5?]

With doc, title, and registration fees. I tried to get trunk tray added. The only way they would do it without changing the price was if I financed the car. It wasn't worth it to me.

 

[OldPirate]

It's your preferred color at the best price you can find. Get it. Get it now.

I look at it this way, whatever happens with the 2026, you're likely not going to see a lower price than you have in front of you now.

If they announce 2026 isn't coming, you'll see the markups return in a big way to the remaining 2025 inventory.

If they announce 2026 is coming, it's a safe bet to assume the MSRP will be going up, especially when you consider potential tariff issues. Not to mention, you'll be waiting until October/November 2025 at the earliest before you can get one.

That's why I got one this weekend, been hearing this is the last year for a gas engine. But who knows for sure. I wanted a sonic gray pearl one but at 56k no way, got CW at MSRP plus 1000 bucks of add on's.

Congrats! I actually did not like the Alcantara wheel on my '21 FK8. I have always felt Alcantara does not hold up well for daily driving purposes and better ideally suited for improving grip when used in tandem with driving gloves.

i work remotely from home and put maybe 800-1000 mi a year on my cars (I have a few & none are a daily lol). i was gonna order the Mugen Alcantara shiftknob to match but am having doubts about that
