Just got back from the dealership without a type r due to this crazy markup:

How long do you think it will be before we can get a CTR for sticker?

To install that cost 305$ from Dealer

There are a handful of Type R's on cars.com, they are currently listed under Touring for $34,775

Geez they charge an additional $7995 and still stick you for a $300 dealer processing charge (NOT REQUIRED BY LAW)...

I don't understand why Honda is designating this car and Si as 2017 MY when
a) most companies are already selling their new cars as 2018 MY
b) Is 2017 MY only going be produced for 6 months and starting Jan. we get 2018 MY?
c) If you buy a car today as 2018 MY, as far the Resale value is concerned, you got 18 months that counts that car as "Current" year car. But if you buy this Type R now, in 6 months it will be considers as 2017 which they categories it as ONE year old once we go into 2018. And this will devalue the car as a ONE year old car. Even if you get delivery in Dec. as 2017, in one month after that, that car is ONE year old from Resale value point of view.

So, I'm going to wait till 2018 date gets announced.
Any thoughts?

I think I read somewhere that they are building MY17 until DEC. Going with the calendar year unfortunately.

Dealers aren't in a rush to sell them and don't mind holding on to them.

Exactly, over price the car, some will pay it and in the mean time consider it great marketing bringing in a lot of potential customers and sales. They can slowly reduce price until it sells then go to MSRP if needed.

If you were selling a car and could possibly get 20-25k why sell it for $15k.

I get both sides of it and have sold a lot of cars, bikes, boats, sleds etc over the years.

It doesn't matter. Early build Type Rs will hold their value extremely well anyway.

Unless early production problems emerge like they did with the Focus RS.

Oh yeah and they will come up. Nothing is perfect. Third year should have most bugs fixed.

But why are you surprised?

This is why months back I said.
Wait until the third year if you want a fair price on a new CTR.

Remember this car have and will continue to have a lot of hype.

Hype = High Markup.

I'm telling you these cars will be easy to buy in a 2-3months. Just the look of the car alone has eliminated many buyers.

I'm waiting for the story of the person who pays $20k ADM, drives it off the lot and gets wrecked by some 18 year old kid not paying attention.

Insurance company gives them $30k for their used/totaled Type R.

For me, it would depend on the unit #. I can understand paying a premium for a good production # on the plate. And we all know, the lower the # the higher the premium dealers can probably get!
