Do any of you guys know where the production # of an ITR is located besides the center console? Would it be located on the window sticker? Thanx in advance...

 

No where else and if you lost it, you can't ever get it back again.

 

Nope. I have my window sticker and it doesn't have the Serial Number on it. BTW my car is a 2001.

 

its a marketing ploy.

 

Nope, it just on the console. And had I known that was it I would have taken the armrest off when I got the car.

 

I guess I'l have to call up Honda of America and see if they can look it up through the vin #...thanx for the reply guys

 

Sorry, but you're SOL.

There's NO WAY you'll ever find out what your number is.

 

They can not.
Sorry.
What, got rid of your center console?

 

that reminds me, does anybody have the #542? the reason i ask is because my original number was #416. but when my car got stolen, they gave me new center console and my number changed to #542. just curious if anybody has the same one...

 

lol. they printed 542 on it for ya?

 

will that be a salvage item?

 

yea i have no idea, i'm thinking it's from a salvaged ITR too, yea i was like this is weird...

 

Is that anywhere close to the last numbers of you car's VIN?
They probably just ordered a replacement piece and had it engraved.

 

Yea, Honda doesn't have the numbers either...

Does anyone know where I can get a number plate and how much are they?

 

I thought that the last 3 or 4 numbers of the VIN are the serial numbers for the ITR. so if it is like 000314 or 001023 you are #314 and #1023 respectively.

 

Nope, sorry. It was a good guess though.

 

you have to love car dealers

 

They dont track this? Damn, that means anybody can claim any number?

 

Yeah, not tracked at all....more marketing hype I guess. On the new MINI's we had a special "Launch Edition" that came out in Canada. 500 made for the country. They ARE actually tracked and correlated to the V.I.N. #...That would have been nice for the R's. Oh well, just don't lose yours or at least keep record of it somewhere!

 

For anybody who forgot, lost, or was never given a Type R production number:

I called Corporate Acura and provided them with the VIN number of the car. It took them a week, but they got it after contacting Honda of Japan.
If you get a customer service rep who doesn't know what they are talking about and tell you it's the last four digits of the VIN, call again another day.

They can track this number down, but the question is... Are they too lazy to help?
