HONESTLY it just depends on the condition of both R. If they were pretty equal, "I'll Do It". I like 97s or CW itRs but I <3 fbp/NHBP even More! GL

My decision would be base on the condition of both R's. I've owned a 97 R and an 01 NHBP ITR and I love the look, and power the 01 R has vs the 97 R.

I love the Championship white so if I was you I would keep that. White stays much cooler in the summer and much cleaner too.

Black cars are terrible. It takes forever to clean them, wax/polish them, and then the second you drive down the road, it's COVERED in dust and looks like ****!
Championship White is thee best ITR color... not to mention the fastest!
Besides, there arent enough 97Rs left. I say take that 97 to the grave with you!

I respect the rarity of the 97's and all but I would personally prefer a black 00/01.

I'd have a hard time selling/trading a clean 97 being as they are getting to be nearly extinct. I'd say hang on to it and try to buy a black one some time in the future.

The OP is asking for opinions. Not everyone is all crazy for a 97. Yes, they are rare. I don't dig the look though. If a black itr is what the OP wants then why not sell or trade the 97?

I speak for it's rarity but I'm not a fan of the look either compared to the 98+ models.
