Default Photo request : Suzuka assembly plant

I'm looking for a photo of an ITR coming off the Suzuka assembly line, or any ITR assembly related photos.

Thanks in advance.

ditto^^

would be an interesting sight to behold. we finally figured out the number of ITRs in the US, but seeing a pic of one being made would be the cherry on top.

The picture I have in my head, is of some building with "hanger" like doors and an assembly line with a gem 01 PY ITR coming off as the last DC2 ITR off the line.

Heres the closest thing I have ever seen to that, from the "I 'heart" DC2/DB8 ITR" book, looks like CTRs on this day though. Still, kinda neat.

Id love to see something like that. Id even settle for a showroom photo of an ITR. Brand new of course or a truckload of new ITRs on a trailer.

that'd be cool if they had tours available at the plant. maybe they would have some pictures hiding somewhere with the DC2R production.

when i purchaced my ITR new i was there when the truck dropped off one PY and one FBP, the truck had 7 total if i remember correctly. pretty cool sight indeed, i drove her off 30 minutes later with 0000000 on the clock

wish i would have had my camera that day, would have been a cool picture

Thanks for that pic, I love black and white industrial pics.

I know the chances of finding one with ITRs is slim, but I figured this would be the place to look

Those are very cool pics!

They must also have video's of them being produced, probably archived somewhere @ Honda. That would be sick to see

Here are some pics from shortly after I got my 01, the dealer got 2 more in, one yellow one black.










Also, I did not take this pic, but from what I remember this was somewhere in Cali or something where Rs came in and were waiting on some legalese to happen before being shipped to dealers (could be total BS I dunno).
