Gosh I LOVE the JDM 4-door ITR. If I wasn't so freakin incompetent and can't drive RHD cars even if my life depended on it, I would have had one in my driveway now...

Canada as a whole will be getting around 300 units in Year 2017 & 2018 model year I believed that's the rumor

300 units is not many. I wonder how many ppl put their name down on all the dealerships just incase.
Stop by Vancouver Honda, and saw the 2017 Civic Si in white. Looks exactly like the CTR minus 2 door. Personally they should have did the 2 door version for the Type R instead of the 4 door.
seriously calm yo tits to the prospective buyers eager to jump into a $42K FWD platform...let these Type Rs sit on the lot for a while so the dealerships realize how ridiculously greedy they are being

The Arizona lawyer dude made some good points, and I'd be inclined to believe how that's how things can turn out if she is willing to play rough and maybe even sue.
If I were her, depending on whether I want to play nice or not, I would either demand the dealership to supply me with a courtesy vehicle of similar cost -- free of charge -- during that 3 month holding period. Or I would demand them to deliver the car right away.
I would raise the issue with Honda America to see if they can help.

I realized the CL7 Accord Euro-R is legal in a few months. Yes it's essentially a TSX, but K20 and a bunch of other goodies. I was looking at the CL1 Euro but the price point is identical for way more car.

At least they owned up and publicly apologized I suppose...
I had a local dealer try to make me wait 3+ weeks for a car I was supposed to pick up the same day I sold mine privately. It was 10 years ago so won't get into all the details but was told I could pick up what I wanted same day, went in and was told sorry they thought they had one at their holding lot and offered to transfer in another in 2-3 days. Lent me a POS because I had no ride. After 10 days of following up after the initial 3 days they finally admitted my car was being showcased at a launch party in the interior and asked for another week. Got my deposit back and bought a more expensive Lexus elsewhere same day instead. Ragret that knee jerk decision as I didn't keep it long but that's a whole other story
Do miss that air conditioned leather though

scalpers aside, can you guys think of other industries where marking-up for the end-consumer from high demand right under your nose is a common business practice? Like not even at a set rate, just a green dollar amount in their eyes arbitrarily set. Housing market is the only other one that comes to mind. Even service industries like airfare have rapid price jumps but at least that's based on an algorithm.
It's like when the middle-man comes into the picture, they'll fuck with your wallet if the opportunity arises. It's such garbage practice, they should all be called out for it.
Can you imagine if the hospital urgent care randomly demands an extra $500 after hours because there are less physicians in the early morning?
isnt there like a realtor's board? i guess that doesn't act like a regulatory body where you can e-mail the dean and lodge a complaint about 'arbitrary' pricing
let's also not forget the example is for a Civic Type R in a modest suburb of Texas
not a 675LT in Vancouver
