i am going to be in the market for another Type R sometime in the very near future and was wondering what my chances are of coming across one. This will be my fourth one and hopefully one i will keep for some time. I am only looking for Yellow at the moment but am not really against CW. I already had the most mint condition Black I could have imagined so black is out. I understand this is opinion based but any input would be great. Thanks for listening and I really look forward to being behind the wheel of another R sometime soon!

 

Better fix your signature, lol.

How soon are you looking to buy?

 

Sucks your dont want a black one I have a 98% stock one.

Good luck with the search ill keep my eyes open for you.

 

I am looking to do something in the next few months (1-3). And yes a lot has changed since my signature many years ago haha! Do you know of one that may become available?

 

For how weird it seems. Low milage Rs pop up randomly. I saw a 22k mile PY ITR show up at a dealer about 40 mins from me for 18k. by the time i got there it was gone. Just put your feelers out, they will show up.

 

Not sure what you consider to be "low mileage", but one of mine will be posted for sale soon. Its an 01 PY with 77k miles. 100% bone stock with ZERO modifications. Original powertrain with matching VINs. All original body with matching VINs on all panels. All new BF Goodrich g-Force tires. Brand new Exedy OEM clutch. Equipped with most optional accessories- fog lights, nose mask, rear strut bar, & rear trunk mat.

PM me for more info if you're interested. If not- good luck with your search : )

i saw a CW with very low miles on auto trader and craigslist bay area, ca. Was something like 22K miles for 24K bucks. They are out there, but if the mileage too low or the cost too high, it kinda makes you not want to drive it.

 

I sent you a PM.

 

If your serious, and I mean SERIOUS I know of a PY ITR that is going on the block soon.

Low mileage? Yeah, like 25k low mileage. No he doesn't have to sell (has a 08 Porsche GT2) but wants the PY to fund mods on the Porsche.

It's not listed on here, or anywhere else ATM. So you could have pre-sale chance to get it. Meticulous doesn't event describe this particular car. He even waxes BEHIND the mirrors. Folds them in and waxes behind there.

Price will be north of 20k though.

If you want more details, PM me.

 

I remember seeing your black ITR yearssss ago. Cerca 2004 at a HT meet in PA. Best of luck on your new hunt. You won't find a bargain, but i believe they are out there should you put the word out and flash the cash.

 

I really miss that Black one it was so mint I still look back at the pics of it from time to time. It was torn down and turned into a k series track rat. Oh well to each their own! I will be figuring out over the next few months my budget and decide then depending on what i have to work with. thanks for the replys so far keep them coming. I like hearing about these hidden gems keeps me hopeful!

 

The mint ones will command top dollar, so make sure you budget enough to swoop one up when you see it, The one from stored from American Honda was put up a few months ago and someone jumped on it right away!

 

I'm curious how much did it go for and how many miles/specs were on it?

There is a low mileage original owner black one on autotrader asking 24K i believe. I've yet to see an ITR break the 30K barrier

 

The one I mentioned above is a one owner, sub 30k one.

I think he's going to ask 22k for his. I'm going to call/text him today and point him to this thread.

EDIT: I contacted the seller of said PY. I've PM'd the OP.

 

The car Dave is talking about is my. Most of you know the car's nickname as (The bunny or The Unicorn). I'm working on the for sale post right now. I'll be posting it on ITRCA.
Had to get a new username (Was - Type-R Yo!). And yes a lot of OGs knows me.
Dave has PM you for email info. I'll just wait for your reply to him.

 

Shouldn't your SN be New Type-R Yo!

 

The PY he is referring to is no bullshit, if you're serious then this is the one to get.

 

That one does really sound nice but I am not quite ready at the moment and he I believe is ready to list. Im sure she will go quick given the condition.

 

I know of 97 ITR, original owner with 7400 miles on it. Talk about being ****. This car is in a sealed bag. It's a real pleasure to look at, I must admit.

 

I heard the old Endyne 97 was barely driven and had barely any miles before it was sold.

 

Ryan I'm getting old. And I am Type-R Yo!.
And your "Five years and counting". My will be 12 years by next March if it's not sold by than.
