No, that's what they meant: they can no longer build ones for dealer inventory and still keep up with demand for preordered ones. So beginning now, dealers will see a big drawdown in their standing stock for the remainder of the year. The "more arriving every week..." part is going to slow to a trickle, and maybe stop.

Plus the Clubman was even more popular than they had hoped it would be.

Not true, I have owned three Toyota pickups for the past thirty years, and I had to bring my 2004 in for a recall in 05, the dealer gave me a courtesy car and that Corolla was a piece of gaaarbage.

Saw a Civic in Vancouver with leather and a bunch of options sold under the Acura badge... wouldn't this sell well in the States?

Well, you CAN buy a Civic EX-L right now, if you like. Has almost everything the EL in Canada has, except auto climate control.

We used to have one in the states; it was called, "Integra."

He's talking about a 1.6EL (used to be anyway). It really looks just like a spiffed up Civic.

It is now the CSX, which was preceded by the 1.6EL and 1.7EL. United States Civic clones, for those who didn't know or couldn't tell.
