Default Question about confirming a true Type R

I was once told that you could tell when a type R is a type R because all other integras came with sunroof ?

If thats not true .......

Is there any obvious way to tell a fake?

I don't think the rs comes with a sunroof and I've seen a few ITRs on here that the owner added a sunroof. If you are looking to buy one the best way is the vin number.

There's a ton of ways, best way is to check out the rear subframe of the car.

VIN is the best way, if it is a "clone" , and you didn't check the vin first, check this : when looking at the engine bay from the front of the car, look to the left apron behind the abs module, if there is a hole there it's not an ITR. If it is solid sheet metal...
