Hi all! I wasn't able to choose my color, they offered me black....so I jumped on it. I would have loved to have red, it looks great!

That's gorgeous! My dad had a 1968 Datsun 510 that had an aftermarket camshaft, headers, exhaust, intake, struts, and springs with a tune. That thing was freakin' mean, but it was unfortunately stolen.

Looool British dude posts good news, immediately gets ripped on. I'm definitely jealous of how official this purchase is tho. All I got is a bill of sale that has "White type R" scribbled on it and a receipt for the deposit. Imagine not having to speculate/fear ADM's/play the colour lottery. @sean465 Hope the whole process goes smooth for you!
Hi Sean,
I was having a nervous breakdown about the same thing. All I have is a receipt that says, "black Honda type r" with my deposit. Its so very ... unsatisfying.

This summer we are planning on taking the engine out and letting my son play with it a little. That really sucks it was stolen. That is my largest fear about the Honda, we only got 3 in Missouri. I am scared that someone will steal it.

Nice! These cost an arm and a leg in So Cal but they are so beautiful!
I got a really great price. Bought it for my son's 14th birthday. No rust, original seats...which I might add he replaced with new racing seats...

Aww I'm not ripping him, just playfully jesting - and pointing out the truth! He could probably go right now and get a new or USED CTR somewhere....or a DC5 ITR, AccordTypeR, Mugen RR, etc etc, all of which are impossible to us. Really, I'm pointing out how screwey Honda has treated the US enthusiast over the last 20 years.

So we get it first but at least UK is getting a response from Honda about an order. Here some of the damn dealers still don't even know the car is coming. As recently as March I've had dealers tell me they never heard of it, it probably wasn't coming here. I don't think they were just trying to make a sale on a lesser model...
Hi Brian,
I had the same problem here in Missouri. When I called dealers, everyone was confused about a "waiting list". But, when I found the RIGHT dealer they knew exactly what I was talking about. After I signed my receipt, there were like 4 Honda guys that came up to me and told me that they were soooo jealous...Honda employees weren't allowed to reserve one.

Yes, that is what they said. But, no one really knows anything do they? I haven't been able to find out exactly how many were coming to the US. That's kinda why I began looking for a forum.

Ciaran,
You'll have to park the CTR in the garage if you can...

Oh it will be in the garage, and at work, its probably even more secure: 6 homeland security officers, one at the gate, id entry only. It will be that one day that I go to get a Slurpee, it will get stolen.LOL
