Default Possible R sighting? It was dark...

So...I drove past (it was going the other way) what I thought was a 1997 Type R. It was white, didn't get a good look at the side, but the engine, not exhaust, was pretty loud. 1997 front, seen on Skytop drive though the Watchung Reservation, Watchung, NJ.

If that was a real type R and you are the owner, post please

Didn't get to look at the badge. It was dark, and the headlights kinda "blinded" me.

I saw a 98 JDM conversion recently in White Plains, NY region I will not say where exactly. Still kinda fun to see 'em in public. Cuz I haven't seen one in quite a while.
