Getting out of the game, buying a house, and saving money.

No way..the ITR is AWESOME. Find a car that is better at its price point for overall performance and you can prove all of us wrong. The only hype surrounding the ITR are by retards that think the ITR is the BEST performing car available and nothing else can measure up.

I sold my car because I wanted something nicer that performed better than the ITR. I also had to pay a lot more to get it.

But, it is amusing to see as many for sale posts this week as we see "stolen" posts in other weeks.

I understand that some people need to move the car for a house or some other needs.

Also, there are many alternatives now in the sport compact market.

R is for die-hard enthusiats...

Uhh..yeah, that must be it.

Is that why you BOUGHT the ITR? Was it a bandwagon thing?

People are selling them cause they keep them shinny and clean, thus a theift magnet. Now if you guys stoped washing your cars and drove them you would not have to worry. Look at mine, its dirty, dented and never gets looked at

Alright. It wasn't apparent to me.

Now is a good time to sell if you chose too. You can still get good resale, there is still a market, and there are lots of potential replacements.

I wanted to sell my car before the end of this summer for sure because I was under the impression the DC5-R was coming and the inflated resale value of the ITR would drop quickly.

i HATE itr owners who think they run this import thing
Feel better now?

Apex ITR and myself were having a little fun.

You seem to be the one that is on a high horse.

Get over it, its not like I said your motor was stolen...

"Get over it, its not like I said your motor was stolen... "

That was too funny.

14.3 doesn't tell the tale. Ask RatedR how fast my car was @ the track. The fastest slowest hybrid Honda that day. lol (That sounded confusing didn't it).

I also sold my ITr because I was gearing up to buy a house. Besides I want big boy, 500 hp is just the begginning, I can't drive my fast car today because its raining and I'll kill myself, turning a corner and getting on it a little and breaking the *** end loose, spinning the **** out some 18 inch Advans, 11 seconds is kinda slow for my car power :D

there are times in life when greater responsibilities come into play...for some having what they want is greater than having what they need...and for some it's the opposite.

for those moving onto greater things like a house...i applaud you...
and for those that can have both wants and needs...i applaud you too...

sometimes it's better to have loved once than never to have loved at all...i guess i can be applied to cars after all.

maybe because there's only so much you can do to a FWD car? just a thought.
or
maybe you have to spend a whole lot of money to squeeze every little bit of HP you can out of a B18C5?
or
economics of their current lifestyle?

I am not selling an ITR since I don't have one .

But the only thing that prevented me from buying one last year is NOT money, NOT insurance, NOT attention, IT WAS THE THEFT ISSUE.
