I've only seen two white R's in Irvine. I think they were both 98's, though I'm not sure.

dunno

but me and 2 friends were literally hunted down by a 00-01 PY ITR going back to sandiego, from irvine all the way to SD, he would pull next to us and continually downshift,rev,etc (poor R) yes thats almost an hour of a drive !

after we ended raced him 3 times (in my buds eclipse), he would still pull next to us wanting more and more...i mean he was cool and all, but damn...enough is enough

Since we're on the topic of R spotting.

I saw a black ITR on friday on Harbor going towards Disneyland. It was wingless.

I think you mean South Coast Acura thats deep in the ghetto of Newport Beach (Costa Mesa ). I looked at the yellow one there when i picked up some MTF, but it was kinda worn, sun damaged/faded interior, rear bumper doesn't align, and some low budget tires.

Btw, how does everyone feel about high-beaming a fellow ITR owner? I've started to do it as a friendly gesture, insted of giving the thumbs up (which is the Turkish invitation for homosexual encounters ).
