Sort of what I was thinking as well..I'm really in no hurry to buy one... and worst case scenario, I'll wait until it's February and there is 2 feet of snow on the ground...

 

In June when I was looking, most new where selling for $28-30K, and half of those where no A/C & radio. I got mine with 5681 mlles for $25590.00 which I thought was a good deal.

 

Did you buy your car private party or local dealer? Did it have AC and radio for the price you listed?

Amer: You're absolutely right - in this economy I'm only willing to pay mid 20's ~ not because I can't pay more but that's a lot of money for a car that appeals to a very SMALL audience. I'm in no hurry so will buy when the right seller has the right car, longer they hold onto a car, the more value it loses each month while they pay for insurance/registration/car payments so...

looks like there are still lots of '08 CRs left... not many '09CRs (partially based on production numbers) but if an '08 is what you want, they are definitely available... I think there are 3 or 4 right in my area.

 

good luck guys on your CR search -- its an awesome car! :]

Holy crap! A delete model!

 

So I was thinking about it, and I know what Honda should have done. Instead of the cr, I would have liked Honda to do what they did with the NSX (in Japan) -> a Type-S and Type-S zero.

The Type-S would be the the Type-S from Japan. The stiffer suspension (not as stiff as the CR), aero, sways, steering, interior but with the soft top.

The Type-S Zero would be the CR delete model but maybe give it some extras like lighter wheels (BBS RGR's like the NSX Type-S had). Maybe find other places to lighten it up like lighter seats, rear glass, manual windows, battery, etc.

I figure they could have sold a lot of Type-S's since many people seem to be turned off by the lack of soft top. And some people wanted the CR to be more Type-R-ish. Just a thought.
