2027s coming soon?

[VtecBuddy]

Was going to buy a 2026 DE5 but held off because there's a refresh coming this year, has anyone heard anything about when 2027s might be coming? I think previous model years came in roughly Aug-Sept.

No idea myself. We probably won’t see rumors and renders till at least August

Keep an eye on shipments to Japan.

U think the type s being sold in Japan will actually happen in 2027?

to me it seems too quick. Getting the assembly lines ready for a rhd car can’t happen that quick can it?

im willing to be wrong. Would be cool if it did get sent there for the sake of finally fucking getting red badges

I believe Acura already announced they’d start selling in Japan in the second half of the year, and that they’d be LHD. I think it’s common for European manufacturers to sell LHD in Japan.

That would be wild for a japanese brand to sell new LHD cars in Japan. Not illegal but OEMs are *very* highly encouraged to sell RHD only domestically.
