Default BOSE in '00-'01 ITR?

Ok, some donkey friend of mine who had a black ITR before it got repo'd (he is a donkey) claimed that my stock Clarion stereo in my 2.5 RS wasn't anything compared to the BOSE in his ITR. I told him he was full of **** & that the ITR didn't have a BOSE soundsystem option. I know it didn't on my departed CW ITR, so I'd imagine it wouldn't on the other two model years.

Can someone please confirm (or deny) my beliefs as fact?

I think Acura had an upgrade BOSE system available for the other Integras, but I don't think it was offered for the 'R!?....

Yoshi, didn't the older ones come with an average run of the mill Alpine?

I remember that for my old LS BTW.

But, yeah the stock R stereo is nothing special and certainly NOT Bose.

Never came with 'em.

Bose is crap anyways (in cars at least).

BPR - who is looking forward to hearing the Mark Levinson system in the new Lexus GX470.

I totally disagree,

I just turn off the radio and listen to the wonderful music that the R makes all by itself. That is way better than ANY stereo ANY day...

Ed -- who's been wearing earplugs in the car on the highway the last day or two, and is wondering what a 3" Thermal will sound like!?

I-club?

What the Hell is that? You mean I have to join another site just to find out that it is boring and I end up cleaning out my cookies thus erasing my password and ultimately not caring and just coming back here...

Give me the link anyways please, I'm old and don't know where to look for it, should I even care really?

Anyway,


A.
