Default 1997 type R morning ride wash and oil change

This is my late moms type R ..my dad got it for mom new in 1997
my dad and my mom are gone now ,me and my sister own the the car now .....
we are quickly finding out that the value on this R is pretty high
it's all stock mom do it a tree with the car in 2006 I think.. slow speed
not much damage ...but she reallly didt drive it no more ..it just sit in the garage
i would go over and drive the car about 10 or 20 miles a month and fill it with
gas and change the oil every year ....

so so we may sell it or just sit on awhile ...still thinking about it.

It'd be even better if you got the oil changed at an Acura dealer.

Why? So they can rape him for what you can do yourself for $40.

Well it seems like they don't change the oil themselves. So in that case, yes take it to Acura for honda oil and filter.

Difficult to play the market imo

Nice car but it isn't collector quality and probably isn't cheap enough to be driver quality.

Sits in a weird place between the two.

Imo if it isn't a collector car something into the 20s just doesn't make sense too many other comparable cars

I'm only trying to get it for my girl. She had one right out of high school in 97. A year or so goes by and somebody runs a red light and totaled the car. Pushed the driver door all the way to the passenger seat. She was in the hospital for a long time because of this. Now she's ready for another one. So I'd like to make this one a surprise. But if it doesn't happen I'll keep looking and find one eventually

I'd like a 97 or 98. So if you see one send it my way.
