It is the 2nd year the Type R was made in the United States, and it was offered in the ever-so-popular Championship White color only.

So CW would be the history of Honda Auto Racing...
Was there ever even a CW car before the 96 R? Or was this color created or used for the first time in 96? Was it on their F1 cars or something?

Well... it's special, in the sense that EVERY ITR is special. But unfortunately, it was only available in white, so it looks like white GS-Rs and other white Integras.
Now, the Phoenix Yellow ITR from 2000 and 2001 are REALLY special, because they don't look like other (non-R) Integras.

CW type R's can never be mistaking with a white gs-r wingless or not.
