And Honda seems to go opposite and pushing more Manual gear boxes feels like there will be a chance for the fk8 R series to be produced in higher numbers.
I have heard others say that the 2017MY will be rare as it ages because Honda will start increasing production of the FK8 so each year will see more and more; thus reducing the rarity. Similar to what happened with the 1997 ITR and why it is the most coveted model year in North America. A long term commitment for sure so perhaps not a factor if you're not looking to keep it forever.
