might just be the windows obscuring the view, but the panel fitments don't look right.

the bumper seems off compared to the quarter panel and the door doesn't look like it fits properly either.

The bumper may seem off, but there isn't a moonroof. This is a real DC5R.

The base also came with no sunroof. It actually looks like a base rsx converted to a rhd type r look a like. Looking at the pics, it looks like a fake type r. No bright red seats, no bright red brembo brakes, the bumber looks like it was an actual typeR bumper but put onto the base rsx. It really looks like a fake typeR.

All the bases I have seen came with moonroofs.

base models do come with a sunroof dont they? but either way if you want it enough, you can always get rid of a sunroof. i'm not saying whether or not this thing is real, i'm just saying i would expect a real type R to have better fitment.

I think definately a real ITR. It would cost more to buy one in Japan and import it over than to get the RHD, OEM wheels, interior, etc. on a RSX. Probably bought it cheap as a wrecked ITR or something (hence the misaligned panels) and imported it over.
