Honda Civic Type-R Over sticker dealer naughty list.

[Byron Sexton]

LOL thats not how it works chief.....

It is if every customer you get in the door says they will only pay the MSRP and the car isnt moving. how long do you think they are going to want to keep that car on the lot? till 2022? That's not how it works because consumers like you are willing to pay WAY above suggested retail price.

did you put a deposit down?

I did not put a deposit down. I found one for MSRP that I was willing to flight out and drive home 300 miles. With Covid, I had no idea what the market was going to do, so it was an easy decision to take a short flight and drive the car home.

I just secure a Boost Blue for $45,000 OTD... good deal or not. I had no options since they have more LE’s then anything else. Should be here in a week or two!

The car came off the delivery truck with a scrape on the passenger side rear wheel. The dealership replaced the wheel & gave me the damaged one for free. I may put a tire on it and keep it as a spare, or possibly sell it.

the only damage is on the top right of the 1st pic

Everyone I interacted with at this dealership was awesome. Barker Honda, a small dealership in Houma, LA. This was the only Type R they were going to receive this year, and they didn't add any ADM. Will definitely send them some business where possible.

IMO you got a pretty good deal. It feels so good to deal with a good dealer. It took me 15 minutes from the time I walk in the dealer to the time I gave my deposit. I knew what I was getting in to base on the market. Sales manager told me$2,5k over told hime to show me the numbers. Came back with $45k OTD. ??‍

Gwinnett Place Honda, Boost Blue...

Not giving in, but close to giving up.

I swear if people have patience and wait this out the Prices are going to fall. There is a threat of massive inflation A new car shouldn't be on anyone's mind right now.

Leave the Type-R forums buy a car with Cash and save until this ride is over.....the Type-R is coming back in 2022 it has already been confirmed. I bet when that hits everyone even dealers with brand new Type-R's on the lot will be pushing to get rid of them.

This whole COVID thing shows you that logic doesn't really dictate people's behaviors. Huge unemployment, future uncertainty, etc and people are spending like crazy. My neighbors house sold in like a day for like $200K over asking lol like alot of the country, open houses around here have been packed since the beginning of COVID.

Some of this is due to policy, some due to inventory shortages, but its nuts.....happy to sit back for a while and watch everyone bid each other to debt ?

Absolutely love my CTR but could never justify paying a 5 figure markup on this car. I don't get the rush......its not rare enough to warrant panic. Personally, I would wait it out and either pick one up used down the road when things settle down or check out the new one. Hell, for the price of MSRP + some of these markups, even a manual-to-death guy like me would be checking out a used RCF or even stretching it to the new IS500 f sport when it comes out. Toyota V8 at that price makes sense, not a 4 popper.

I’m pretty sure I read recently that the type r isn’t coming in 2022 but will in 2023. 2022 is for the regular models.

I agree. I believe it also depends on what market you're in. I heard others on here talking about how dealers in their area don't get many Type Rs in. Carvana sold out of every Type R they had near me. There isn't many for sale near me based upon my search on Carmax, Cars.com and Cargurus.
