    Just picked one up (yesterday in fact). I’ll most likely end up getting rid of it by end of summer if someone wants a winter deal.

    That’s what I was thinking, but I’m really liking it.
    @rage2 , CTR has an inbetween tire. With Cup2 it’ll be faster yet.

    What do you guys think future value will look like on these? Teggy type r status? I put my name down for a spot when yellow is confirmed. I'd like to see what the low spoiler option car is first.

    Honda dealer here said yellow is US only, but I feel like they just want me to buy the one they have haha.

    No news on colours yet, unless they found something online, but there is nothing official from Honda Canada

    Honda's been notoriously bad on releasing info for the Canadian CTRs. Nobody knows allocations/when vehicles are arriving until they are basically on the train from Halifax from what I understand

    What surprise me is, with that many Type R in Calgary, I still haven't seen a Grey one yet, that Sonic Grey (something like that) is by far the best looking colour from photos and video.

    The Pearl Blue is stunning too, but not available for Canada ..

    Isn't sonic grey new for 2019 in Canada?

    I still want a red one but I guess they're gone for 2019 now?

    Yes, the Grey is the new colour, which I believe the Grey replaces Red, very limit choice for Colour in Canada..

    Yup the red was last years special color. This year is the Gray. Which makes me sad because that was top of my list.
    I believe once the grey is gone its done for canada.

    I rarely ever see these cars on the street in Calgary. Are a lot of owners treating these like garage queens or investments? I see way more Ferrari, Lamborghini, etc rolling around heck Ive seen a few McLarens over the last month and a single black Type R and it’s always the same one.

    Sonic Grey isn't new, unless it is new just for the North American CTR. My car is the Sonic Grey Pearl and the CTR I drove in Scotland last year was also Sonic Grey Pearl.

    I see these things all the time, there are a ton of them in Calgary unless I'm just seeing the same 5 or 6 each time which I guess is possible, but unlikely based on where I've seen them. The championship white is my favorite.

    Scroll up, apparently the CTRs are just avoiding you and I

    I wouldn't mind seeing them offered in purple

    I drive mine everyday. I even drove mine for 2 winters now. But I think last year is going to be my last winter I will drive it. Seeing the amount of salt they use now scares me.

    Sonic Grey only canada had for 2017 and 2018 on civic hatchback non type R. USA never got it for 2017 or 2018. Europe had sonic gray type r's before us. I thought it was going to be limited to them but then they surprised us.
    Sonic grey is new to usa and canada for 2019 type R. Limited for canada. So it should be gone next year.
    Who knows what will happen for 2020 colors for Canada.

    On the other hand, on Sunday I saw a white CTR on the Crowchild W off ramp on to Stoney N parked in the middle of the road. My guess is the owner ditched their car since their summer tires couldn't make it up the slight incline during the snowstorm.

    I'm strictly in the NW and NE during the week so maybe they are all in the south? I'm not exaggerating when I say I never see them.

    There aren't THAT many around.

    I see 4doorj's and another stock white one in the deep SE the odd time. I image lots of people aren't going out of their way to winter drive them either.

    You must be in nice area ... lol

    Try going to China town or T&T ... will see more Type R ..

    Somehow Focus RS is more rare, but easy to spot (Can't miss that Blue) .. Golf R is still the most common hot hatch!

    By the way, for the members with the Type R, how was it past winter? 18inch wheel/snow tire ?

    I actually like the look for the Type R, but chicks hate it ...
