Got off the phone with a trusted source (doesn't mean it's 100% accurate as he doesn't make any decisions this high up and anything can change on the fly, so don't shoot the messenger if something doesn't come to be), but as best as he knows and has heard:

*There will be right at 2500 CTRs made for America this model year. There is a list of color breakdown, but it is listed as confidential and won't tell me those numbers.

*On-sale date is slated for June 15. Cars will start shipping from port a couple days before.

*Best rumor for 2018 MY is that Honda will make about 300 CTRs a month for America market. There is no plan for after the 2018 run. Honda could shut it down after those are done..OR they could reaccess the situation and keep it going depending on demand.

*States not showing in the IN are for no explained reason. Everything should start displaying soon for every dealer.

Another thanks RatedR. I'm also wondering about base and touring trims for 2018, as I most likely will get the base if they offer it.

Hmmmmmmm this information is pretty conflicting with the information that I have received from our Honda Region Rep as well as my dealerships owner who attended the meeting in Washington DC where Jeff Conrad himself discussed the availability of this vehicle with them.

However, Honda has changed up information several times for this car, so we will have to see how it all pans out.

kinda would be nice if someone from honda came out and tell us how many are being imported. Least Ford came out and said they'll make as many RS they can sell.

This info from a top Zone rep. But again, things can and do change.

I do have an answer for this, but it's way too soon to make it public knowledge since it's at best a ballpark guesstimate. Going to hold on to this info a bit.

He wouldn't confirm or deny this. Said that it is the rumor that there will be 2 trims offered. So nothing new there.

That is enough cars to be picky on color and possibility discount. Now the question is should we pass on color?
