True though... anyone can mess with the cluster. But it wouldn't be very hard to tell if its a real car with less than 1k miles.

Im just sayin'...buyer beware.

FTR, I didnt need to roll mine back, I just had to buy a used one because mine was stolen. But it can very easily be rolled and you would never know.

If cash were no object, I'd give him 30k for it. Provided it pans out, that car is a true collectors car!!!

In the last year or so some true low mile R's have come out of the closet. Really makes you wonder what else is tucked away.

Assuming the caR checks out legit, $30k is a DEAL. The out the door dealership price of $26,930 in 1997, inflation adjusted comes to $34,890 today!

FYI: This caR was for sale around 6/29/2004 and had 773 miles on it at the time.

BTW, anyone who whines "but it's a 10 year old car" is a douche. Just saying.

You may be able to finance $12k of it, but mostly you'll need cash

I'd buy it, and garage it for 30 years.

It's my goal to do that sometime in the next 5-6 years, I've always wanted a mint ridiculously low mileage '97 or '98 Type-R to just park in my climate controlled garage under a car cover, and look at once in a while.

Call that plan stupid, or call me stupid because the car should go to someone who will appreciate it, blah, blah, blah... But I'm doing that before they become impossible to find in this condition, which will probably start in the next 5-6 years.

Nice car, but I wouldn't want to see what some of the seals in that motor look like. I think that whoever buys the thing is going to have to dump some cash into it. No car can sit for that long without drying out.

If I had $30K laying around, that'd be my down payment on an Elise or Exige rolling chassis

But still, nice clean car!

Worth every penny of $30k, probably more. People need to take Economics 101 and understand real money.
