Default I miss my R

Just like the thread title says... I miss my R.

I've had 2 ITRs.

I had a 99 (ITR37) which got stolen after 6 montsh. I sold my 00 PY 1.5 year ago and purchased an 03 S2000.

Yes, the S2000 is fun but I can honestly say that I have never had as much fun driving a car as much as I did in my R.


Enjoy the car while you have it.

More room and more head turning then an S2k I say!! I guess its just the letter "TYPE R" that makes you feel like you own a true Japanese car even though its an USDM!!

I agree. I had an s2k for three years and it was nothing but fun. Theres nothing like a lightweight, responsive 2 seater-convertible on a crisp cool morning in the country somewhere. When the lease was up though i let it go and just thought of how happy i was that i still had the ITR. .

Thats exactly it.
Dont get me wrong, I really like my S2000 and its definitely fun to drive when its nice out.

However, its just not an R.

Ditto for me... S is a great car, but I would pick the R every time if I had to choose between them.

I haven't missed my R ever since I've converted to German Thunder. Much more comfortable and is much more capable in handling than my old R.
