Was looking through the DuPont Registry and saw a PY 2001. 36,000 miles, 2.0 N/A with Toda cams. Says the owner has $42,000 in receipts.

Thats all.

 

haha i saw that too...im not surprised to see an R in there though. its only a matter of time.

 

Interesting. I know its only a matter of time...I really want to get my hands on a clean 97' before its too late. Two more years...

10 year anniversary of the release of the 97' ITR's coming in July. Can't believe my R is gonna be 10

 

Was there an asking price listed?

 

No asking price listed. It had a wings west front lip and some cheap looking wheels. Appeared to be Gram Lights.

 

^horrible

 

wow, that sounds gay with the lip and wheels but i wouldnt be suprised to see some clean r's end up there, they are very easy cars to appreciate and enjoy by anyone and it would probably be the cheapest car in there

The DuPont Registry. Have we arrived to "Collector car" status?
I would say so.

 

It's worth a try I guess on the seller's part.

P.S. Buy my ride!!!!

 

I've seen R's in the registry a couple of times, a few years back too. its nice to see are car in there!

The ITR was a collector car the second it rolled off showrooms in 97.

It just took ten years, and, countless ITR's destroyed for a lot of folks to realize it.

It's at least the 7th or 8th ITR I've seen in DPR over the years.

Stripped and rebuilt, heavily modded or tracked, and/or POS'd daily driver R's are never going to fetch the money a flawless unmolested car will. Hence the reason I treated every R I ever owned like a collector car and not a track *****.

All of my R's went to owners that were appreciative of the careful pampering I gave the car. The guys paid top dollar and didn't look at it like "hey it's got lots of life left in it to thrash the **** out of it"

As far as I'm concerned, there are millions of EG civics on the road that can be made into just as, if not more competent of a track car than the ITR with a car as common as a belly buttons. That can be had for the price of a high end mountain bike.

 

Yep, i've seen a couple of yellow and white itr's in the mag.........one black one.

Actually, back in 98' after Acura announced that there would be no 99 ITR, I remember seeing 97's in there with asking prices from $35K and up.

YES!

I remember a CW one around that time in the DPR displayed on jackstands with all of the dealer plastics still on it for a tall asking price.

 

I have a 1st cousin who has listed his early 90's ZR1 Vette in the Registry. The car has spent it's life going back and forth to Vette meets and then back into a bubble that my cousin stores it in. He's asking money for it.

 

We had a customer let us park his ZR1 in the showroom for two weeks. Minty fresh.

 

It's a piece of **** compared to my cousin's. It's disgusting how immaculate this car is.

 

Your cousins is a piece of **** compared to this one.

:waits for Opie to throw next rock:

 

that reminds me, ive been looking at like 98-00 corvettes and its kind of funny to see r's have about the same price tags as a corvette of the same year,

ah that is true cuz i used a used car estimator thing at work (worked for mazda at the time) i put in the vin for the R to see what its worth and it came up collector car...i was shocked i even forgot all bout it till now.....

 

Don't get a Vette unless your insurance is good. Parts are out the roof. $700 dealer cost for a bumper?
