Default who owns 97-001?

I really want to know who owns the first ITR of 97... Does anyone know who they are, and if they are on HT? How much do you think that car would be worth?

I know VIN # 000002 is/was the lowest known ITR. It was built by DC Sports in 1998 and raced in the 1998 season finishing second overall. The car was on sale 2 years back, I am not sure if this was a 1997 or a 1998 car.

Honda probably, they are required to keep a certain # of the first to come off the assembly line by law. Some of those end up at their training centers.

Not trying to burst anyones bubble here...but badge number has been proven before to have no relevance to production order....FYI

But from what I've read, the first few were purchased by private companies for racing purposes. This means the first few (VIN#) are probably retired somewhere, and those would be the ones that, in actuality, would retain any special value.

If you wanted to pretend to have something special you can always purchase a blank badge and stamp it yourself with #001.

IMO I would find it hard to believe that someone would pay more for a Type-R simply based on the badge number.

It has been rumored (but never verified), that Real Time Racing was given '97 ITR #0001 by Honda.

The answers here get dumber and dumber and the years go on.

Nice to have a few older members put up the accepted answers
