Default R sighting, but not your typical....

I was celebrating my wife's 30yr birthday on a cruise and was walking through the streets of St. Kitts and BAM right there parked on the street is a CW ITR. Just slightly riced with the stickers on the side of the doors, but heck, even the taxi minivans have those Apex, etc. stickers running up the side of the doors.

Man, I need to see if I can afford a home in St. Kitts or St. Maarten.

Suggest a good pic hosting site and I'll share the pic that I took.

It's crazy going to exotic locales and seeing the cars we obsess over here in the states.

In Jamaica there are actually a lot of Integras that all have the 'JDM' front, which is standard along with the RHD. I wasn't lucky enough to see any ITRs however.

I saw some interesting Mitsubishis that I've never seen before too.

Well just to chime in here since my mother's (RIP 11/13/06) family is originally from Trinidad and just like all the other Carribean islands, they are all RHD and get all their cars from Japan. My father's side of the family are all americans from the US Virgin Islands but i can remember what side they are... its been years since i've been there. When i was there though i saw a couple of RHD Itr's and civics and i remember thinking... why do they have stickers on the side of the car ... lol.

I saw a DC5-R while in Jamaica and talked to the owner. He said he had the only DC5-R on the island. Was a pretty cool guy but the wife didn't like me talking about RRRRrrrrr's while on the honey moon .

I noticed on our honeymoon also that Jamaica had jdm front ended integras all over the place and cheap too I believe.

Me and Bradstard think alike, both on our honeymoon in Jamaica and both looking at cars HAHA

well, put me in that category. now, i didn't talk about cars while we were on maui, but it seems like everywhere else we go - be it running errands or on a vacation, my head just turns when i see a car worth looking at. talking with the owner is a bonus.
