This is spot on. I find that everyone is interested until it's time to pay. The $4k delta is the difference of $64 per month on a 72 month loan at 5.04%. Easy to say when it's not my money but this seems like a nominal sum to give up on a car that people fell in love with.
The reality is the ITS is a consolation prize for people who could not find a Civic Type R at MSRP or with a reasonable ADM. The demand only recently surged into the stratosphere when the reality set in that securing a Civic Type R is a wet dream and thought the ITS would only be a few thousand more and widely available at MSRP.
