Good bye sweetheart, time to move on
My days as a Type R owner have come to an end. Yesterday I ordered my new car, and sold the R off. The good news is the replacement is pretty nice, and the better news is my 55 year old mom bought my R off me as a daily driver. So atleast its still in the family. If anyone sees an old lady pimping a CW ITR around the southwest, say hi to my mom.
Replacement is a 06 EVO 9 MR. Had a 500hp eclipse GSX before my ITR, so its back to the roots.

She is going to have it "restored" first. All prettied up, motor completely refreshed/overbored, new pistons. Get it all cleaned up.
She was dissappointed when she found out it didn't have cruise control. The way she drives, I don't know if she will ever discover vtec. That will be a nice surprise one day while getting on the highway.
The other good thing is I didn't have a garage, and she does. She is going to keep it pampered in the garage. Its like my R is being retired to th good old life of old lady ownership.

first of all, congrats on purchasing the MR. your mom is cool to be driving the R. btw, does the R have the turbo? i remember seeing a PY R one day and when i drove up to it, the driver was a grandma. i thought it was the coolest thing.
So the R has alittle oil leak, burns alittle oil, and has 1-2 dings. She wants me to take it in and order parts to get it bling'd out and perfect. Since it has 113k miles she is going for a complete rebuild, and going to get every little thing fixed. Crazy moms.
