This guy was trying to sell this R on Autotrader a long while back. He's come down 20K since then it looks.

If I bought that, straight into the storage unit it would go. Too bad it isn't a 1997. Hmmmm. He modified it too

heh, I'm sorry to talk ill about someone, but the owner of that car comes off as the biggest FLAKE! I can't believe he's selling already, after e-wanking all over the place about how pristine his super-low mile ITR was.

Oh! But what's-his-name from NWP4Life or whatever will like to know about this, since the car was sold from under him.

My .02 on this "youngster"

I was the one whom Darrin (the original owner) took a 500 dollar deposit for on this car, and then to turned around (behind my back) and sold it to this kid.

What turned into a big ole fiasco here on the ITR forum. Really made me realize this car really went to the "wrong" hands.

As much as Darrin appointed that he really cared for the cars future owners, I really feel not only did it NOT, but this "kid" is really a "bad" representation to the ITR community.

I wanted the car for collector reasons, as an <U>enthusiast</U>. Not for profitable dollars in my pocket. To be honest? I'm glad he is selling it and hope the car will go to someone of the "enthusiast" caliber. He got the car with 9k in spoon parts, for 20k. Now he is trying to sell the car alone for 5k over what he paid. Which definately goes against <u>HIS</u> words, when HE claimed. If HE were to "ever" sell the car. I would get dibs at what HE paid (those are HIS words, in whiche all of users here on H-T saw). I was even willing to entertain his original purchase price, without all the parts he obtained. Of course, "HE" is one of many in this world. Which doesn't have strong morals of keeping there word.

So in my books, he is a turd. and you and cant polish a turd.

Seems like in todays world, people have no morals whatsoever. Lie, Cheat, Canive just to make a buck.

What happened to the honest dollar?

What concerns me if I were a potential buyer is the simple fact about how pristine he hypes the R up to be and how original it is, then changes random parts with after market ****, most of which make little to no difference in performance over the OEM parts replaced.

If Im spending all that money, and get all the original keys, brochures, window sticker etc. I want it untouched or the original parts that were taken off, to come in a cardboard box so I could put them back on.

Amen, You can definately tell ..that this "kid" is definately not an enthusiast or has slightest knowledge on the car he bought. I mean, who gets a car of this caliber, and puts a "jdm" valve cover, Cf spark plug cover and to top it off with a DC sports intake? Seriously?

Someone should buy it and vacuum seal the whole car to keep it fresh forever.

Someone should buy it and kick the living snot out of it on the track.

What the **** ... towels on the floormats??? My ITR spent the first five years of it's life as a show car, and seriously, if it had 3000KM's on it you wouldn't question it otherwise, but come on ... somebody enjoy the car already!

What a waste.

I just don't understand why the hell he is selling it ALREADY? IMO the car went to a bad second owner. I wish Andy would have been sold this car, it certainly wouldn't be back up for sale only months later if it was, not to mention with an inflated price tag

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by ITRAga128 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Hi this is the guy selling the R on ebay. The reason for the vlave cover,spark plug cover is this. When I pourchased the car it had a really ugly spoon spark plug cover on it and didnt come with the factory one so after searching for a factory one and not finding it I decided to go with the vision the reason for the valve cover change is there was a tiny nick in the red paint on the stock one that bugged me alot so I decided to replace it with the JDM cover. The spoon rotors were on the carand the intake came with the car brand new so I decided to throw it on for a little extra power. I never drive the car and have alot of debt so I decided since I want to get a house next year then I better sell the car. I lvoe the car and already have sellers remorse and yes I am enthuiast but one who can barely afford it, this is my second R I have a loan on it and I see no reason in making monthly payments on a car I am afraid to drive because it is so mint. Thanks</TD></TR></TABLE>

Your explanation on going back on your words of selling me the car (at the original purchase price, even without the 9k in Spoon parts), after me being taken by Darrin for my deposit?

I'm pretty sure NWP is referring to the original seller who had originally accepted his deposit before it was sold to what is now evident, the wrong person. At any rate my thoughts and opinions concerning this particular sale have already been expressed

Here we go again.

Yes, it's a low mileage ITR that should have never made it to the hands that it's currently in. What a waste of a great car. I remember reading how when I called him out last time for selling the PY he wanted to paint some sort of silver, he said this one he was going to keep and yada yada yada. I knew this was coming since day one. I so wish I could have bought the car myself, or the other guy who made the $500 deposit. It's so sad to see what is happening now. Honestly Brian, I think your a worthless POS for what you have done and your worse than the dog crap on the bottom of my shoe. But that's just my rant.

You said in your own words,

" Im sorry for what happened to you NWP4LIFE, and Darrin said he wanted to sell the car to you ..blah blah blah. However, I want you to know the car is in great hands and if I ever sell it, you will get the first opportunity at what I bought it for"

But.. I can wish in one hand and sh*t in the other..and the Sh*t will always weigh more.

Good luck to you, at this point. I have more luck talkin to a wall..
