Default 2000 PY Integra Type R 00-1142

Picked up Acura Integra Type R 00-1142 earlier today. I have casually looked for one and couldnt believe my eye’s when a local one popped up. Overall she is in great shape with matching VIN tags on all the panels. Previous owner took really good care of her. Pricing on these cars have skyrocketed over the years so im glad to have this car in my possession. Compliments the CR and im pleased to have another iconic Honda in the garage.

This car is so simple and so pure... i was in High School when this car debuted in 1997 and it was love at first sight. Nostalgia is a powerful thing... The ITR has eluded me for 18 or so years but after seeing this car I had to have it.

All original with matching VIN tags on all the panels. Original Phoenix Yellow paint with good history being from Texas and California.

Car looks great. I've ALWAYS wanted an ITR in Championship White.

But the prices has been so high for a good condition one, I just can't justify the price that some of the people are asking.

100% stock. I have the JDM Wheels and the USDM wheels that came with the sale. Non molested fenders. Even still has the original Radio/Head unit. Purchased from an older guy that has owned her for a decade or so.

The suspension and bushings will need replacing and maybe the motor mounts as well. I'll start tearing into her this weekend and start replacing parts with OEM parts to freshen things up. Water pump and timing belt were replaced 4k miles ago.

I paid market price for an Integra Type R in this condition and im perfectly fine with it.

It's nice seeing an unmolested Type R. I've browsed for years and too often i've come across salvage titles (theft), heavily modified (JDM Engines/Built motors) or examples of one's that were too neglected.

It's still an 18 year old car however so it's going to need a full tune up and a solid detail.
