Just stop washing your CW one, it will turn yellow-ish on its own.

It's a far fetch but you may be able to trade someone out right for the car. I would try that and see what happens. Try here and http://www.itrca.com GL either way.

Definately not worth it just for the color. Your going to be getting the same car in just another color. So just keep this one and pretend like its yellow

Yeah, i used to own a Championship white aswell.. but i didnt have the red interior.

The PY gets alot more attention, and i personally think its alot more attractive, but i think it stands out too much.

I wouldnt mind having a more 'low-key' Type R, since the white doesnt stand out as much.. and i wouldnt mind the red interior!

Let me know if your interested in a trade, its mint condition 00 PY w/79,000 with Valid warranty until November 2008/ or 100,000kms.

Purchased from the dealer last year for $22,000..

Im in Toronto.. and only interested if your car is MINT, and in PERFECT running condition... i wouldnt want to trade my car for some junk.

My email is skypaths@hotmail.com if youd like to contact me..

I think somebody got to it before you in SFL. The guy I sold it to didn't even have it 3 weeks before she was gone.

Why you'd choose a PY over CW is beyond me.

as much as i love champ white and will probably be the next color itr i choose, the yellow is the one true recognizable signature color for the ITR. i mean, honestly, once you spot a yellow teg, it either has to be a true bonafide R or a wannabe. the white and blacks are more stealth. the first time i EVER laid my eyes on a yellow itr sitting brand-new on the showroom floor, my heart was at quicker pace...hands sweaty and mind fixated.

i think honda was brilliant when they decided to squirt the 00-01 black and yellow. after a year off and the car body style going on 7 years, it needed an injection to boost the excitement. plus, if you think about it, every color ever produced complements the other colors even more. i doubt champ white would be as highly regarded today if honda only made champ white Rs ever. vice versa the black and yellows.

personally, if the guy wants yellow, an R is an R is an R, as long as he can find one in the same condition as his CW.
