2000-2001 had a metal one.

1997-1998 had a black leather one with red stitching.

Mine now has a GS-R shift ****.

It is titanium covered in 2000+ ITRs. A chunk of titanium that size would cost a lot more than $200 (and weigh a lot less).

Actually Titanium is surprisingly not that expensive. It is the 4th most common elemental metal in the earth's crust. A six foot long 1" diameter bar is about $250 canadian. So about sixty cents american... Seriously, about $150US for a bar that size so the Ti in a shift **** shouldn't be more than $10...

You're 100% correct. I believe the cost of Ti parts comes from the fact that it's difficult to work with (it's hard stuff to try and machine). I could be wrong though!

List price on the faux titanium **** is indeed US$200.

List price on the GS-R shift ****, which is not cold in winter, not hot in summer, and conforms better with the grip of your hand, is US$35 or so.

I'm not sure what the point would be. I am a Type R guy. I just like the shift **** from the GS-R better, so that's what I'm using on my '01 ITR. Heck, I also put a red Type R valve cover on my '94 GS-R (which my SO now drives).

I was just clownin... Your point about the function over form of the gsr **** was interesting. Type-R owners are often fronting the superiority of their cars, but when it comes to shift *****, the gsr owners are putting the whoop on them.

Do you think that Acura prices the ITR **** very high because its OEM Type R or is there something really special about the ****?

What is the difference in material used between the RSX 5spd accessory **** and the ITR 00-01 ****? They look very similar, yet the difference is almost $150.

The diff is the material. I'm not saying it costs Honda that much for the **** (Ti) but, they charge us that much. Yes, it's all Titanium...solid for type r (I've seen the drawing)...and the Rsx one is aluminum.

It's SOLID TITANIUM!...settled.
