Not really. The type r is a limited production car loaded with cool parts that work really well together. ---

Scratched front bumper. LAME. I understand collectors items. But who has a garage full of different hondas, and goes around buying uber rare hondas? It is much different than a classic 69 SS camero or something, that the price of the car can go 25 times its original sticker price. I dont get the honda thing I guess. ---

Anyways… as I’ve said and as everyone knows its worth what the someone is willing to pay… and im sure some jackass will pay 30g’s for a 13 year old honda its just insane in my book, if it was like 20’gs id still feel the same way but i think most of the WTF factor is that fact that gained 4 grand… ---

320 1997 Type R’s were brought to the US, the most unique year. The Type R is very very different than other Integras as far as suspension, exterior, interior, motor, etc. It’s not like some Ford Focus where they slap on a spoiler and 16’s and it’s the top model. Some one will pay in that neighborhood for that car, probably low to mid 20s. And it is not the lowest mileage model in existence. In that thread they mention the 98 with 600ish miles, and there are two 2001’s in vacuum bags in Texas with less than 40 miles on them. This is probably the lowest mileage 97 though. The Type-R is a collectors car to some, including myself, and I would love to own one or more some day. Buy a Hyundai Genesis now, it’s worth dirt in 5 years… where if the R is kept nice, will be worth far more. ---

That is most deff a collector car. Its limited production along with the uber low milage… I mean really people?!? Someone who has the money will pay that for the car, no doubt about it. I will own an ITR one day, really is an amazing track car. ---
