I like that colour but you hardly ever see any around. it is obviously not a big seller so im not surprised its being stopped. But they need to add more colours. The colours are very ltd.

Discontinued for Lime green instead?
Another strange Honda decision....
I'd love to be fly on the wall at the board meetings

Shame.
It is a nice colour.

Are Honda allergic to blue?

It's probably a supply issue. When you get someone who wants a Civ and is given the colours and waiting times I suppose to get a popular colour and wait less time for it is tempting.

That blue is nice but if Honda only do batches of them sporadically then the demand will be reduced.

Same with supermarkets, you can't find something because they've all gone and they tell you there's no demand so they haven't restocked.

Royal Blue is a lovely colour, but I've only seen a handful of them, which is a shame...

They should bring back Vivid Blue, introduce a yellow and a Krypto green on the Type-R as well as develop a new metalic grey...

All in MHO of course...

Anyone know how to spray Hammerite

Yeah a few were banging on about this the other day on here. But I noticed a HUGE display of colours on the wall at Gordons Honda when I was there yesterday.....They will probably bring back Vivid Blue....was a popular choice and sadly missed

Shame that - I've seen a couple of royal blue ones over the last few days and I quite like em. I do love the vivid blue though.

It would be nice if they actually expanded the colour range rather than shortened it!

I don't mean to ridiculous levels of choice but a few more would be great.

Man if they do that that'll be frustrating. I wanted vivid but they had discontinued it, so I went with royal blue... If I'd known it might come back I'd probably have waited! Oh well, hindsight is great and I still love my car

Good Morning Angie. May I ask what you were doing at Gordons Honda? I trust you had your passport stamped to enter God's country
