This is my 2001 Acure Integra Type R #1106. The car is exceptionaly clean inside and out. The car has about 46k on it, mostly highway since I picked it up on Oct of 04 with about 26k. This is my daily summer car. It is always garage kept and has never seen snow. The car has a clean title and runs and drives beautifully. The rear bumper cover has been repainted due to a <U>minor</U> incident. There is also a small door ding in the passenger door. Other than that, the car is flawless. The car is all stock and has never been moded, apart from the valve stems.

I'm asking $17,300 OBO, and please no lowballers. Serious inquerys only. Not looking for trades.

The car will come with a second set of Acura floormats, Acura car cover, and a full detail.

Good price. Wait for the right buyer. If you want it gone now, drop it $1500

Looks like your exhaust is hanging a little low (maybe from said accident?), inspect/replace the rubber exhaust hangers.

That's a GREAT price. Don't budge you'll find a buyer.

Looks like an excellent price to me man. Especially since you've kept her stock. I say just wait for the right buyer.

Its an okay price.

Reality is most people these days want a CW or *BP ITR. I had trouble selling my two 01 PY's.. sold one for 20k in 2003, the other for $17,500 i think in 2004?

It took my 5 days to sell my CW for full asking price.

Price it to how quickly you want it sold. If you know you'll take less, lower the price some. You can always stand firm when someone comes to look at it, but a lower price attracts more potential buyers.

And, not for nothing, but everyone who says 'great price, don't budge' doesn't want to see you lower the price aren't your potential buyers.

Nope I meant what I wrote, but I personally think he should hold out for his asking price.

I know, one of my hangers is torn. Thanks tho.


I really don't want to take less than 17k, I had started at 18k. It's been up for a little over 2 months now.

Id say its definitely harder to sell a PY R nowadays compared to CW or BP. You might have to come down some but since its completely stock, I wouldnt touch the price just yet. unless you are getting desperate.

sorta OT but what lens are you using for those pics? are they distorted at all? the car looks sorta smushed in some pics.

its an alright price. you'll find a buyer but it seems most people are paying in the 15 range for clean type r's. I got mine for 15 with 60k and bone stock, very clean. It's all in the right buyer who's local enough that it's not a big deal to go get it.

I don't think so. I would say it's a FAIR price, right in the ballpark. I might consider posting it at "$16,999 FIRM" rather than "17,300 OBO", since OBO invites lowballers, but that's up to you.

I would also spend fifty bucks to have a good paintless dent repair specialist fix the door ding...

At first I saw the 17,300 price, but after looking at the photos, it is one heck of a deal.

I think that's going rate. Just be patient.

I saw Avail here in Raleigh about 5 years ago at the Brewery and it was a great show.

It will probably sell a lot quicker once spring comes around, but the price seems right.
