Just wondering, the initial cost of the car is quite high.
Does that mean spares are also expensive
For example what would be the cost of a new exhaust.
COST OF SPARES
A new exhaust will cost you quite a bit as it will have to be custom made, no OEM parts available.

I suspect spare parts will be expensive. It's a limited run car on its own platform which shares very very little with other honda models (the window switches are the same as a 10th gen civic), perhaps the brakes match another model, but suspect not much else.
This means very little aftermarket support for parts, with the rest tucked up in honda warehouses most likely in continental europe only. Given that most spare parts needed are usually engine - the demand for spares on the e will probably be less, so their availability will be less.
I still havent found an online electronics part catalogue. Finding parts for the prelude is a dream, online EPC and lookup/compare to other models everywhere, and then order direct from japan for about 35% of the UK dealer cost. Happy days ( www.amayama.com )
I need some center caps - mine are coroded already where the H emblem is stuck to the diamond cut center cap. Wouldnt mind a new grey type 2 charging port flap aswell and some touch up paint.

No it wasn’t standard. it used to be on the option list, but no matter how hard I look I can no longer find it.
