Default Someone is very lucky...01 R with only 5,000 miles

**pics at the bottom of the page** (thanks 330R)


The black 2001 ITR was just sold from Lyle Pearson Acura here in Boise Idaho today. It was shipped to California to a private buyer. Hard to believe someone could own a Type R and just let it sit there for so long and not drive it. I went to look at it today and it had just been sent off about an hour before I got there. The salesman said the previous owners were from Japan and were moving back so he sold it to the dealer. I have pics from the dealership if someone wants to host them and re-size them because they are rather large.

This thread was made after it was sold. I have no connection to the car or the dealer. I believe they wanted 22k for it, thats what I was told by a good friend who looked at it.

I believe it since I only drove around 1500 miles last year, just didn't find time.

Nevermind, they can keep it! I just saw the mugen sticker beside the <U>real</U> sticker.
Next time anyone sees it, it'll probably have a Hello kitty decal on the hood. I don't understand why people do this?

lol....are you some kind of moron....your telling me you wouldnt buy this masterpiece because it has a mugen sticker on the back. that may be the the most ludacris comment Ive ever seen. This car is immaculate. I in turn, do not understand people with your oblivious incompetant attitude.

NICE PICS. (you snooze you lose when it comes to type's)..It was gone the day after I found out about it.

I know its only a car, but that one belongs in a Museum. It would be a shame for some low life to strip it for parts. I didnt think low milage R's like this were left.

I bought my R a little over two years ago and had her shipped from michigan to pa and when she landed in my possesion it had just over 2,7XX miles. Looked just like this one and stupid me sold it.
