Has anyone been able to choose a color from the dealer yet or is it luck of the draw?
Price increase wasn’t much more than I expected. Was thinking 42 myself. Still a good price for this car in todays world. Now I personally would never buy this vehicle at 50 with a dealer mark up. At that point I would just rather spend the extra money and get a G80.
The out of state dealer that sold me one with my color choice in 2017 at only $2000 over msrp contacted me and told me they heard their bosses saying now $20k over for their single allocation. No idea what color or anything. Another local dealer told me he thinks that if they get one it will be 20k over. We will see if they actually get that but in todays market people will pay I think even with everything high.
I was working with a dealer that strictly sells at MSRP (plus a non-optional "option" package). The day they get their first allocation, my rep gets back to me and says "I just talked to my boss. We're now adding a $5K markup. Still interested?" The car is hot, hot, hot. Anyone who can find one at MSRP (at least at launch) is lucky, lucky, lucky.The out of state dealer that sold me one with my color choice in 2017 at only $2000 over msrp contacted me and told me they heard their bosses saying now $20k over for their single allocation.

In two days, I went from naively expecting to pay $39K (what I assumed the MSRP would be around) + $4K (for the option package) to realizing I was going to pay no less than $44K + $5K (markup) +$4K (options) + tax/license. Sorry, that's knocking on $60K, at which point this car no longer appeals to me much.![]()
Was thinking the same!I think that is the case for a lot of guys. It appears this generation of Type R buyer isn't going to be your true enthusiast for the most part.
We will see what happens in the near and far future.Was thinking the same!
