After experimenting with a WRX, and an Eclipse GSX, I'm back home to honda w/ my new CW ITR. well broken in w/ 90k miles still drives like a champ, and for the first time since my first car I'm infatuated with a car!
although power maybe lacking compared to the other cars. the handling is awesome, and the fun factor is definitely higher....I love this car!

 

Nice!

Couple posts down is a dyno plot of my still stock 97. Ed

 

I'm in the same boat. After experimentation with a WRX, I found myself loving an ITR. Welcome back to the family.

 

what didnt you like about the WRX, or why did u sell?

 

Welcome home, now defend it with all you got!

 

word!

cw ownij

 

It wasn't that I didn't like the wrx, I did alot, It just wasn't real exciting to drive for me. I like to call it boringly fast A great car none the less though.

zygspeed

you are local! Nice #s you got there for a stock engine.

The car has i/h/e already....I don't really have much for power plans at the moment for it. just getting the feel of it first. My first impressions have been very favorable though

same here, i thoroughly tested my friend's WRX for a couple days. WRX is nice but lacks that race car feel. i would never give up my R for one

Thats kinda how I was w/ the 350Z...but it was pimp when I first got it

had to get the ITR
wish i found a CW here

 

I couldnt agree with you guys more about them being "boringly fast". I have ridden in my buddies time and time again and just cant get the same feeling i can when im in my caR.

good job there is nothing better than a honda, let alone a type-r

 

I'm doing the same thing. Just sold my wrx, and I'm lookin for a itr myself.

 

as far as wrx's sounding liek trucks i have to disagree, i love the sound of them, no other 4cly rumbles liek them

 

Whoa, nice.

Keep it safe man.

 

I agree,..they sound like a beast STOCK!More so when modded!

 

CW ownz all !

 

congrat and keep it safe

 

People seem to have this progression often. The only people I know who have actually owned type-r's sold it to get a wrx then went back to a type-r after less than a year. A good amount of people on the boards have moved onto wrx's also and I've seen a few come back I know a lot of people who have wrx's. They are without a dought nice cars, but for the type of environment I live in I would rather have something different. If I lived in a snowier/more rural place I would choose a wrx in a heart beat though

 

skeetyness..

 

good stuff. i always wanted a type-r

 

Nothing like an ITR to get you back into hondas.

 

Congrats Rare CW 97 itr
