:heckno:

^^RS beatdown? Set up a meeting place for the transaction and commence beatdown haha

^^^ LOLOL with mark up premium AND a $10,000 spot hog? You'd fuckin' think this was a Cayman GT4 someone's buying.

Canada isn't even getting a red, so that post is full of shit.

Hide yo wyfe and kids, lest ye wish to have them t-boned by some 280whp civic.

I'm scared to drive on any given day, now we gotta have these rolling around.

inb4

There's zero torque steer in stock form, so no need to worry about getting plowed by a Type R...hell I'd be more scared of regular Civics considering the demographic that buys them.

Or Corollas.

how dare you bad mouth us rolla drivers.. We are the safest on the road! right up there with old lady in beige camry.

:fuckyea:

talking to honda this morning you can put your name down and still get one

you can always put your name down and put a deposit.
i had my name since MAY, and i am #6.

a dealer will get 1 or 2, so #6 is 2018/ 2019

Hmm they said i would get it right away with the first delivery this year also price is low 40's

Talked to Honda HQ ? or a regular Saleperson at Honda Dealership ?

First allocations to be dropped off for the week of 10th of July. Then September, then October... 1 unit per month per dealer Black or White only for MY2017

Anyone think the new ctr's are going to get stolen and stripped for their engines like the itr's did?

IMHO, Honda should come out and deal with all the craze before everything goes too far. They are not like Ferrari or Lambo who don't mid the "exotic" status. CTR is a car to bring that performance image back to Honda, not making it exotic.

They should man up and do like Dodge is doing with Demon, dealers could sell at over MSRP if they want, but they would get the last allocation while dealers selling at MSRP would get priority.

Just spotted a black one going down Patterson, still had all the plastic wrap and the foam on it.

Someone going for a joy ride?

Official sale date is tmrw

$40890 plus all your freight , pdi , and various taxes

I guess that's Open Road Honda's first delivery since that is the closest dealer in the area.

no

because immobilizer

and these parts will be so specific it's a dead giveaway they are stolen...in the old days you could probably try to say it's from Japan and no one would bat an eye

and with old B-series era parts it could fit on so many models, preludes, civics, accords, etc

i believe these parts will have a much narrow spectrum of models they'll be able fit on

i don't think they honestly give a shit

a type R is a halo product, like NSX
it's meant to sell more Civics, not build more limited runs of the track-oriented cars..i don't think it was meant to be accessible to the guy looking at the Honda HR-V then sees the CTR and wants to upgrade

and bad PR is still PR

also remember the DC2 ITR was a loss leader

at 33k, wouldn't surprise me if they're losing money again or breaking-even..the money they dumped into making it the FWD 'ring leader took quite a few years. I remember reading about it back in 2011-ish

they'll probably try to stick a detuned version of the K-engine into an Accord coupe or something...oh god maybe a 2-door Acura, please do that

^It's already confirmed the 2.0T from the R will be the next powerplant for the 10th gen Accord.

WTF the ITR was a loss leader?! wow. That thing didnt even have A/C how the hell do they lose money on it?

...

^ feel bad for the new owner of the black type R.

i know right? sometimes the less you know the better..
