I ordered mine in 2007. Took 4 months and came in to Santan Honda. 6 miles for where I lived. I was called earlier than scheduled on Christmas eve. Since I had family in town for the holidays I couldn't pick up the car for about a week. The Sales manager was nice enough to keep it locked in a private delivery bay. No one touched it. Intact I was the first one to drive it off the lot and fill the tank up with gas. The new car smell lasted for months since i never used it as a DD. Pretty cool.

Yeah the other funny thing the manager told me was that almost all the customers that would come in to sign paperwork wanted to see the car. I guess the car was in a private bay that had a clear window that you could view the car. I wish I had taken a picture. The manager told me that he got tired of telling people that he could not do that and that the owner did not want anyone touching the vehicle. When I picked it up I had at least 4 employees that wanted a ride in the car. It didn't even have gas at that point. They took good care of me. I had a good buying experience. Even today I go in to the dealership once in a while and one or two employees will recognize me and ask if I still have the CR. To which I reply "heck yeah."
