i just thought i share this with you guys because i haven't felt this peaceful in such a long time. i sold my R this week (finally after 1.5 months on sale) to a good owner and i do miss the R, but i have to say, i can finally sleep peaceful at nights.

i don't have to worry about theft, high insurance premium, haters keying and spitting on my car, extra car payment, etc.. R will definitely be missed and i loved driving it, but all in all, i made the right decision selling it and i'm very content.

thanks for reading.

Thanks for sharing. I recently planned on selling mine, but plans have changed and I see myself putting mine in storage for a long time. We all know they will be worth some duckets some day.

 

i sold mine too, only to buy another one.. now i want to sell it again.. then i know ill want another one..

this car is fucked. its like crack cocaine.. i need type r rehab.

 

ITR 692 i feel the same way as you man, my R is for sale as we speak but i picked up a new car already and couldn't be happier. all in all, its just a car

 

tell me about it, im selling mines too for that same reason, but mines only 13.700 and some people think thats too much

 

I was thinking about put mine for sale too, but then after drive it for a couple more weeks.. NO.. Im keeping it.

 

Just do what me and Anton are doing and get an evo daily and keep the R for track car

my R was a weekend car and was always garaged, but i was still worried.

 

i dont own an R but its still integra :] i thought of selling it and putting a downpayment on a STI..stayed off from work for a while, then after a few days i got in and drove it...hard. loved it and changed my mind.

maybe its cuz i dont own an R i dont have that much of a worry on my mind but i still love it

if you were selling ur first one b/c the car "wasnt practical anymore" than why did u buy anotherone??

 

Ever since I saw an 96 white type r at a Burger King when I was 16 years old, I always wanted one but thought it would never happen. Now that God blessed me to have one I know how much of an effort it took to keep her safe from thieves, paying $ the insurance (glad my mom is listed as the main driver), and keeping it maintained. I think I love her to much too ever think about selling

 

When I have not driven my ITR I feel like selling it. But as soon as I see it in front of me and I get in the drivers seat and turn that sucker on....... and go for a brisk drive dammmm HELLL NOOOO its a keeper

 

YOU SUCK! YOU quitter!

Don't come back! lol j/k at least you did what you had to do and let someone else enjoy a good car.

Hope it stays safe... If you found out the new owner gets jacked, what are you gonna do!

 

Yeah I've thought about selling mine on different occaisons but when it really comes down to it I just can't I'm sure there will come a day when I can be at peace with parting with it like you have but I don't see that day coming up any time soon...haha

I definitely feel you on this one. Especially when you upgrade to something soooooooo much better

+1 to owning a Type R and going through the stereotypical "Type R Owner" experience at least once in a lifetime. But it makes you grow old too fast- worrying about a car all the time as if it were your own firstborn.

 

Owning a type-R is simply an ego boost to the owner....they think they have the baddest car out there...then they grow out of it and sell it, and realize it was never worth it and the ITR is the most overhyped car in the world.

That's my story.

Have you ever owned a Type R? Have you ever driven a Type R on a track? I have owned 2 LS's and driven a GS-R several times and I currently own a Type R and I must say nothign compares.. Nothing. It has nothing to do with your "ego" and everything to do about loving your car more than anything. So why don't you STFU and not talk about something you know nothing about


@ you.

That's the difference. Drive the pee-wad'n out of the car every day, then take it to the track & beat the crap out of it...

It's kinda like dating a supermodel - at least you had her for awhile

 

Judging by your Sig, you might be back with another R ...and offcourse, your nightmare start all over again

i got a '04 G35 with the bremos 6MT

 

youre missing out

 

How high is the insurnace money. Is it more expensive than an S2000?

 

I have a feeling my R will be around for a while. Although storage beats cars up just as bad as driving it everyday...everytime I take it out something else breaks. Do general maintenance, it should be worth a lot in the future.

I've owned one for three years. Selling it was the biggest relief of my life. Don't miss the car a bit. They are overhyped. They're slow. And there's nothing you can't do to a GSR/LS that won't make it better than the type-R.

Like I said, it's just my story. My thoughts, my opinion. Don't be so offended. Damn.

@ you!!!
