ADM’s are gone for the ITS. Pohanka Acura in VA has 10+ sitting on their lots at any given time. When I bought mine last November they had 22 sitting there. Many have been scooping ‘25 models for 2-5k under.

Too many
I think with the blue, red, and TEP you should really see them in person before buying. I really wanted blue/orchid until I saw it in person and it just wasn't the blue for me. It's nice, but a bit too electric for my taste. Also maybe it was just the one I saw in person, but the orange peel on the blue was really bad and noticeable from 15ft away. That's not to say my red is tremendously better. The orange peel on it is still atrocious and the clear is stupid soft. I gently bumped a door on a piece of oak board in my garage while putting my kid in the car and it immediately took paint off the edge... I regret not ppfing the doors or at least door edges too now...
I really wanted a white ITS mainly because white is so easy to live with and it looks good on the ITS with the black accents and dark wheels (not all cars work with white). But the white car I showed up to buy had peeling paint on the bumper corners and I wasn't about to take delivery of that. Paint peeling is not good on any car, but really not cool when it's still new on the lot.

So I switched out to blue, but as you say, it shows the orange peel much more and many other clearcoat defects stand out too. Once you see it you can't unsee it. I've even seen blue ITS cars in Youtube reviews and you can see the awful orange peel ripples and pitts in regular 1080p videos on a laptop screen. That's how bad it is. Not a color for nitpickers like me. I'll head back to white next time around.

I appreciate your realism and sincerity.

I really wish they would have done better. It could be so much more with the large number of body creases, but I suspect those creases and rapid, disparate assembly are part of the cause of all these issues.

I wish that were true. Piazza Acura in West Chester PA has $20k added - didn't seem to care if they sold it or not. The next nearest AWD is Charlotte NC, that I've found so far.

Hi everyone, long time lurker first time poster from Vancouver, British Columbia Canada...

I wish I found this earlier! I didn't read all 84 pages but steer clear of Burrard Acura.

I was on a wait list with $1,000 deposit down and have been a customer of theirs for over 10 years. I trusted them so I passed on 2 ITS as I was hoping to get white.

I was never told price but they said every Acura dealer has the same price with a few accessories added on. Finally after months of waiting I was told car is coming in a few weeks and we should finalize pricing. My sales guy (correction, ex-sales guy) tricked me into listing out some accessories ahead of time as if he would try to throw in one or two of them.

I get down to the Vancouver dealer and he hands me a quote with $14,000 of accessories including dashcam then proceeds to tell me he was able to throw in everything I wanted and more. I asked him to remove the accessories and he said they won't be selling the car without it.

I went home and did a quick search and less that 24hrs later I was signing the documents to an ITS at Campus Acura (Vancouver Island).

Steer clear of Burrard even if you have $90K to drop. I am certain they have added fees as their numbers don't even come close to Campus Acura.

Campus Acura was upfront on all costs. MRSP plus ceramic coating, weather matts and lock nuts. They even broke it all down for me with monthly costs as I requested. With the money "saved" I ended up splurging on the accessories I wanted and not the ones I was being forced to buy and still had money in my pocket.

Chicago area dealers have plenty of ITS stock sitting around. Vehicle prices can be pushed south of 50K. Just picked one up recently for 52.9 OTD.
Do you mind me asking what sort of options were part of that 52.9 so we all get a better context as to what the price includes?

There aren't really any factory options for the ITS. If you mean dealer add-ons....it had dealer installed full tints and wheel locks. Apex Blue.
I used my own financing, didn't get any discounts like Military or Recent Grad. Just negotiated the price, which included everything like tax, title, license, plates, etc.

I'm assuming in the US there are a lot more ITS available than here in Canada. I was told that there might be one more shipment of one or two more ITS for 2025.

As mentioned Burrard Acura added $14K of stuff on the car I was waiting for and on a recent google review, it looks like the same car was quoted to someone else with $20K of stuff added to it. After all was said and done including the "Burrard Acura Experience" fee, the quote was $90K for the ITS.

I should have clarified or used better words, factory options for me = accessories. For me here in west coast Canada, the dealers around like to throw on extra factory accessories and other things like ceramic coating etc to jack up the price. I felt pretty lucky only having to pay 2k extra for stuff i didn't care for. (talked my way out of 2k worth).

As for that Burrard Acura 1derboy is talking about, I got a call from the dealership GM and he straight up said before you come down, understand that there will be at least 10k worth of stuff. I asked him about his own website's pricing and he pretty much said that's meaningless :D.

paid msrp but had 996$ in accessories shoved down my throat

however, it was stuff I was gonna get anyways. The rubber mats, rear hatch mat and tints

I’m sure I could’ve saved 2-300$ if I would’ve purchased online and went to my usual tint guy but it was what it was
