update from yesterday:
They will sell the car...but they want customer to try it (beat it during break in). They also want to put it in the showrom for some publicity and then they will sell it.

Honestly I'm not sure anymore if i really want this car. I got really exited few months ago when I put my deposit down but with all this launch crap I'm not sure. I currently lease my SI and it ends this summer, I cannot wait until December. Also, here in Quebec we have meterS of snow in winter as well as slush, ice and calcium ...not so sure about the ctr for a daily drive in those conditions. Also, I don't want to call every dealer in the region, I know hat they are all sold already.

Since i will go for an another lease I really think about the STI sport. Yeah this is a old engine..the ctr look better, I know all of this. But..the car is available for the same price and will perform nice in snow. My plan would be to lease the sti for 3-4 year and then go for the next ctr or even the new re-designed STI.
Do what's best for you.... personally for your use I'd buy sti or golf R. I'm buying the CTR as a summer wehicle so winter doesn't go in my equation. Everyones situation is different do what is best for you.

Good luck in the car search

I talked to my dealer today and he said he would let me know soon. Do other dealers know in advance? Kind of got me anxious

Any insight yet @Aaronz on Color allotment? thanks
i don't think they will know... my guy woulda told me if he knew the colour cause he knows how much i want white.

initially he said to wait till the cars come in, cause appraisal can change and honda could potentially delay the release or they might not get the car till after launch... but these were all "just in case", but i asked him to give me numbers etc so i know and i can get the credit approve so things go smoothly when it does arrive and he said management said ok.. My other dealer where i have #2 at said #1 wants his for sure, but her GM said i could come in and sign paper work and all that stuff and they would give me a final bill of sale when i picked up the car... but i chose to just keep my deposit there and not sign ... just in case ; >

Best of luck! hope you come out smiling:thumbsup:
thanks dude... i hope so too!! got into a little argument with the wife, cause she thinks i can negotiate... and i told her i don't think that's posssible.. the only thing i see myself negotiating is if they want money to turn over the lease... which i doubt i will have any... the equity on the lease is either positive or equal...

Hopefully everything goes smoothly from here on, best of luck, and don't bother arguing with the wife they seem to know everything, I told my wife I am getting the type R regardless what she said and I just walked away without giving her and chance of coming back, maybe I just know my wife toooooo long :)

2017 was not mentioned When he said that. I suspect that ment until next May, like the 6000 units going to USA thing.
