Wow this is a lot harder than I thought!
I put a wtb up for a mint itr between $15-$20k CAD locally, and have got nothing but ITR's that have been ruined (in my mind anyway).

Just talked a to a guy who knew nothing about his car! "its got valves and a polished head, and a new $13k motor custom made, that's all stock"
He wanted $19k for an itr with 140,000kms, lots of crappy mods, a questionable paint job that's "guarenteed for life" and no service records. "my buddies a mechanic who does all my work" wtf?!?

I even talked to a guy and asked him why his itr had a sunroof. he didn't understand what i was getting at....lol

The search continues

 

Yeah its gona be harder then you think, What is clean to you?

 

They are out there, I'm looking at a few now.

 

I feel I have one but there is one thing wrong i have a dent on the pass door other then that its mint Im looking to get a new skin but i cant find a shop that i trust enough to do it perfect.

No ebay parts, mis-matching body pannels, painted interior, things that can't be changed easily.
Random parts that are out of place: missing strut bars, vin numbers, interior pieces, zip ties holding the intake on, etc...

I understand that they aren't going to be perfect so things like altezza lights can be replaced, same with ugly shift boots, type r seat covers, huge stereo systems etc...

I know exactly what you mean.... I was the same way when I was looking for mine and it took me a year to find it

 

Hell, I had been keeping an eye open for one since I was 15... Finally got mine when I was 19.

Aboslutely nothing wrong with a sound system

 

I know how u feel. It's been at least a year now and i'm still searching. I think i'm just too damn picky

 

To find a low milage, mint, no accidents, clean title itr is hard.. be patient.

 

Hey man I'm in the same boat. Up here in Canada they dont come around too often

 

Hello guys.
I realize Im not in Canada but i believe i have an ITR in very good condition.
I also feel it meets the criteria that a lot of you and other buyers are looking for (low milage, no accidents, mint, clean title), let me know what you guys think or if any of you are interested.

yes that is a car im looking for, but you're a little to far....

 

theres a couple in vancouver, havent really seen them in persone tho, so cleanliness may be dissapointing, ONE that i have checked out though, is a py at burrard acura, it has a full page of mods tho, so im not sure how you feel about that. the first one is insanely minty, the second one was just put up for sale, and i dont know about the rest.

I don't think im desperate enough to go to BC.....yet. Thanks for the heads up tho

 

why cant people be considerate & take care of their caR

 

Just finished checking out 2 more itr's.

first one was from an acura dealership. #00-0820. looked really questionable right away. the paint job was horrid! They didn't mask off any of the rubber trim above the doors, and only wet sanded half the car? I'm sure this car was originally cw, and "painted" py. The wiring in the engine bay, and motor mounts where partly painted, same with a bit of the tranny....
The tilt steering was broken which lef the steering colomn hanging down...wow

second one was a little better, from a private seller. py, jdm front, but has a theft recovered title on it and they replaced the vin numbers. had paper work for it...few other minor things. dont think i can get over the theft recovered title. and he wants $16.5k for it

 

don't get discouraged/impatient, you'll find one

Just be patient and you will find one
