Any Real World Sightings?

Apart from those rare few lucky enough to have taken delivery, has anyone actually seen any new model Civic's out on the road? Apart from outside dealership, I'm still waiting to see one out in the real world.

I saw my first one in the wild yesterday, a blue sport, it looks absolutely flipping gorgeous. I followed behind it for a bit and the way that colour shines in the sun is so so nice. Making my almost regret not ordering blue now. Ah well I'm still super excited to get mine come May. Anyone one to buy an integra dc5? Nah didn't think so!
Saw my second one today, nice blue one just heading into Harlow and as Harlow has the worst roads in the world I hope they made it out the other side.
There was a very dirty one sitting outside Honda Dunfermline today, not sure if that counts or not lol.

When did you order yours I'm still waiting on mine when I went in to order one in the advance grey the dealership said they had none available to order on the system and was waiting on a update from Japan that was the 3rd January called today they said they still haven't heard anything and Honda has pulled all orders for the advance model in any colour would really like to know what Honda is playing at

Hello, I ordered October 22nd and he said early May for delivery. I'm not in a hurry. Gives me plenty of time to sell the integra.
Honda must be suffering from parts shortage badly to be pausing orders on the advance model but not the others. Sad times 😔
Ordered mine end of December (Sport), and have been told end of June for delivery. Not great, but better than lots of other manufacturers.

Only if it isn’t the demo car.
Saw another blue one today on the a52 heading eastbound towards Grantham. Looks great even without the sun shining on it!
Driving home from work a few weeks back in my old 6gen civic in the evening when a pair of headlights come bombing up behind me, followed me for a mile or so and overtook me, was a white one, not sure what trim it was but was deffo shifting a bit, that was on the A4103 from Hereford to Worcester!
Just saw a white Advance reversing out of a parking spot at Canley Sainsbury’s in Cov. It’s a braver person than me, taking a new car to that particular carpark - Honda Sensing must’ve been beeping like mad at every SUV and trolley-wheeler squeezing past them as they attempted to leave.

Gotta say, the waiting to get a date for my order has been relatively okay up to now, but seeing my first one in the wild definitely caused a sharp pang of envy.
Saw my first wild sonic grey on Saturday in Brighton. It was a fully overcast day so the pearl didn't show up but I still like it.
I have now seen another red one in Sunderland - there was the red Sport I saw early on on two occasions - I have now seen another red one - an Advance

...............and there is a further red one parked with the used cars at the Sunderland Honda dealership

And I've got a red one. Common as muck!

I nipped into the dealership in Sunderland earlier - the red one parked up with the used cars is a 23 plate obviously waiting collection next week

The dealership still has the red advance in the showroom - it appears to have moved about 5 feet since I was last there

So yes red ones are as common as muck up here
My FN2 is Milano Red.
I think they sold as many of those as all the other colours put together if Autotrader ads are anything to go by.
So why would other models be different?

Still not seen another one... thought by now I'd have passed by one on the A1231.... rarer than unicorn ****!
I’ve not seen one either. I wonder how many there are in the UK?
I’ve seen two this last week in and around Worcester. White and blue, both Sports models. Looked very nice 👍
I just saw a white one driving out of the Tesco Extra car park in Dunfermline! Wasn’t close enough to see which model.
I've seen 3 out in the wild:

Red one near Tring in December think it was an Elegance model.

White Sport, with one of the black trim kits, ducktail spoiler etc, in Wednesbury a couple of weeks ago.

Black one in Wednesbury a couple of days after that. Couldn't make out the model on that one. Have to say, the black was quite underwhelming - no contrast to it.
