If I was in the market (read : rich enough!) to be ordering one, it'd defo be Bronze......I saw a Type R in Bronze parked out the back waiting for delivery at Lookers Honda Nottingham......and my god is it beautiful!!!!!

If the wait was too ridiculously long though, my second choice would be NHB (like my car now!)

i have a bronze type s. Best colour available by far. But worst colour along with NHB for keeping clean

Likewise for me. Even when slightly mucky (see the test R I photographed in the wiki) it still looks great. Like black but with a bit of added interest.

I just dont see it, i saw bronze at dealer and thought it was black :-/ Until the salesman said...

I wish they had done a gun metal grey or similar to the cosmic grey!

Or even a nice blue he he he




OR...they should stop being muppets and release Champ White in UK....!!!

Was seriously considering the deep bronze but dealer didn` t have one to show and the delivery date for a deep bronze was 4-6 weeks later than the NHB I ordered. I do think it`s an interesting colour but not sure if Honda will continue with it as demand is so low and this could affect residuals.

Now it actually looks quite nice in those pics...

I think it will only ever look nice in the SUN or under light....would look sweet in a lit car park...

The bronze as a colour is beautiful in the metal to look at. My only gripe is that it doesnt compliment the red theme of the interior at all, they just dont go together for me.

German site! No problem, they were taken to share.

When I first saw the car on the test drive it looked nothing to write home about as it was a dull day. However when the sun hits the car it looks pretty cool and all the cars look completely different in the flesh rather than the pictures (in a good way).

I went for Milano in the end as it is quite striking but bronze is defintaley a nice colour.

Bronze

Same here - saw Type s in dealers and thought it was black - took a lot of sun shining through the window to see the bronze but what a fabulous effect - only pain is the waiting time - still only 47 days to go - hopefully!
