Update: It's happening! Picking up the Clarity after work tomorrow! VIN is 007xx if anyone is interested. Now I'm just hoping for some nice weather in Ottawa to better enjoy the initial drive home in! :D
Call the dealer in the morning and ask them to plug it in so you get at least a couple of EV miles on your ride home.

Congratulations! Welcome to the "club":p. Should we develop a secret society greeting??

I'm happy to report that the dealership is 'with it' enough that the Clarity was already fully charged (and gassed). :)

I'd settle for just a friendly wave and a knowing nod to other Clarity drivers when you pass them on the road!

A few requisite photos! I'm digging the car so far. Drove around the dealership a few times and then back home and only used about half the charge of the car. Plugged it into my L2 charger and it was back to full in 1h 15m - can't beat that! Pretty smooth ride and the quietness is almost eerie.

Congrats, very luxury like drive ain't it? I think our acknowledgement should be the finger over the lips shhhhh sign to indicate how quiet it is.

It is the quietest car I've driven to date, and the price (after EVHIP rebate) makes it seem like a steal. Speaking of which, I have paperwork to do...
 
I'm still waiting. Mine is 79X so should be right behind that batch :) Maybe tomorrow.. please keep posting your daily search! :)
 
The June Canadian Clarity delivery numbers are out from Honda. 168 for the month and 588 total for the year. Better numbers and direction from the Jan-May numbers of 76,93,119,73,59.

Now if they can keep up the momentum for July maybe we can get some of our many cars on the list delivered!

July Clarity delivery numbers are out. Down to 104 cars from 168 in June.
 
I'm surprised the number didn't go down even further with the cut to the subsidy in Ontario. Would love to see that number broken down by province. Suspect a lot of quebec and BC in those orders.

I see both autotrader and cargurus are now cleared of all clarity's. Some of the ones that were showing up for a long time have now cleared. I sure hope the lag between listing and disappearing isn't the length of time it took for delivery because (in Ontario) that will hurt a lot of people waiting on cars. Curious how long did delivery take for people once the received a VIN number from the dealership?

I still see 6 cars in cargurus including the Huntsville 783 listed today. Autotrader has had only 3 used/demo cars from BC for a while now.
 
There are a few more Tourings:

777,812 Number7
801 Ideal

Also in BC there are two Base models listed:
770 Carter
822 Jonker
