Ok so if I wanted a CTR and I had like 12-15k to spend on it where would I get one.

 

no idea cali maybe otherwise you would have to import it

 

^Word. Unless you want to go through all the bullsh1t to get it over here, my advice would be to search in cali. Try to find one that is already registered, it will save you time, money and a headache or 2.

 

japan!! place in toronto ontario had one not to long ago but i can't remember there name.

 

Its going to be a few years yet before you'll be able to legally get a CTR in Canada. The vehicle has to be 15 years old to import and register.

 

Yep, Japan or California would probably be your best bet.

Though from what I hear, since you live in Arizona there's a good chance soon after it will end up in Mexico.

A Type R will get you a lot of attention. Some positive and lots of negative. This is not a good idea for a daily driver. Just FYI.

 

quote for truth! i saw a legit cw itr drivin down the road today and it stood out from all the other imports around it

 

There is one for sale here in Indianapolis on craigslist, it's legit too. Wish I had 17k.

We can dream.

I'd only get a Type R if I could fulfill the following conditions:

- Able to afford to pay for vehicle
- Able to afford to properly care for vehicle (insurance, maintenance, security, etc.)
- Able to garage vehicle
- Able to have a daily driver (and fulfill first two criteria for this vehicle) to help protect vehicle

If they made this in LHD, I'd have bought it already. Hope you got $14k cash, because you won't be able to get much of a loan on this.

 

theres a rhd ctr registered in DE i saw at a meet one time, bet its a pain to get registered.

i say just get a clip and make it rhd

It's a laundry list of criteria to get a Japanese domestic market vehicle to pass dot approval it all varies on the inspector, but you could end up having to replace all glass, head lights , tail lights, front bumper, adding door frame support adding emissions standard equipment and possibly even crashing it for dot approval, like everyone is saying buy one that's already registered. its a awesome car car tho but you will need cash in hand cause a bank isnt going to finance that and your only option would be a high interest rate personal loan or have credit good enough to put 10-15k on the visa, its usually not all that practical unless your rich. Oh and have fun swinging through the drive thru. It's a huge pain in the ***

 

I have a couple of them here in PHX. Let me know if your interested 623 915 7030 check out our website @ xrsinnovations.com

 

thanks for the info. i live in AZ so getting it registered shouldn't be that hard considering they register sand rails as long as they have headlights and turn signals. you don't even need a windshield as long as you have glasses or goggles on. I love living in the desert lol. you can have a car with no doors as long as you have seat belts. and nobody even knows what smog is out here.

 

Got mine for $7500 in japan , Ek9 CTR year 2000 BLACK !
