We can't get Silverstone, he really wanted a Silverstone.

Here is his thread in the TO forum.

 

He got a Silverstone, which isn't available here anymore..

He did the deal thru Ganley Honda in Ohio, and they set up a lot of it for him I believe..

Definatly talk to him about it.

I think his first peice of advise would be to find a Canadian dealer close to your location with a good rep, and talk to them about it..

the only differance that matters with the CDN car is that it comes with daytime running lights.

 

Can't get Silverstone? No kidding. That's strange. I'd bet that's the most popular color. No rhyme or reason to Honda's color choices it seems. How long has North America been screaming for Monte Carlo Blue?

 

With the lack of Silverstone, yellow is picking up the pace on the most popular colour..

no MC Blue... why why why??? can't we have that???

 

You'd figure Honda would get a decent # of new sales from current owners who have been lusting over the MC blue for four or five years. How hard can it be to offer a new color?

for me, getting the recall clearance letter was the biggest issue....led to many sleepless nights.....once i secured that, the gov't was more than happy to take my money

 

Hell we only get 4 colours a year?? Red/Yellow/White/Black for '04

That would be good advice.

A Canadian dealer near Buffalo or Detroit might know how to get it done. Back when Honda exported better, faster motorcycles to Canada there were a few Canadian dealers who would help get the 'grey market' cycles across. Of course you could always do what me neighbor did when he wanted a cycle that was not US legal -- he had a dealer in Taiwan send him one part-by-part. He licensed it here as a home made 'kit' motorcycle.

One more question - Are you looking at an '04? I did not not see a blue interior in the '04 Candian brochure.
