I have an opportunity to purchase a 1997 Integra Type-R in Championship white. It is practically brand new with only 743 miles on it. That’s right ONLY seven hundred forty three miles. :eek: It is completely stock. No modifications what so ever. They are asking $11,100 for it.

I checked Kelly Blue Book and they state because it is such a limited model they cannot give a value for it.
Ebay is not helpful, because when you search for type r, you get all these ricer tegras. The prices for real ones vary wildly and none are stock.
Autotrader hasn’t been very helpful either.

So my questions to you is, how much should this be worth? What kind of prices have you seen? I feel $11,000 is kind of high.:dontknow:

$11,000 is rediculously low for such low miles. I smell a scam.

11k is dirt low.

I would ask for 15k if there was no rush to sell it.

Yea i rememeber a while back a guy found one with similar miles and it was like 17k+ i think.

:eek: Wow, really 11,000 is low? Who woulda guessed. Im glad I asked then.
Its not a scam. Its for real. I work for American Honda Motor Co. they had one of these stored away and now they want to get rid of it. I guess I'd better put in for it.

no fuckin way lol ..you work for honda and you had to actually ask if it was a good deal?

scam

jump on it. i wonder how it would run since it was probably stocked for a long time.

You might want to look into replacing some parts that probably had been degrading from sitting for so long. Unless they started and ran the engine for a while every day which I doubt.

Hopefully someone can chime in with more of a technical view of this.

wtf hop on that shit, thats incredible to find it for that cheap & low miles type r's go for around 15k

:/ go look at it and drive it before you buy it. dirt cheap.

I wouldnt even think twice at that price. j/w what do you do at honda?

11K!?!?!?!? wow that's too cheap

post pics of it. type-r r sexy.

Yea I heard about this too but it sounds like a Honda Engineer is jumping on this. Unless you are this Honda engineer lol. Is there a link somewhere to this sale? I would buy this in a heartbeat for that price.

You think you're tricky asking for the link so you can buy it? Nu Uh. You ain't gonna get it because the OP is gonna get it BE FO yo ass. JIGGA.

lies. prove it. :iptf:

its a scam they can easily get 20k+ if it was legit

LOL, this is not a scam. This is not on craigslist or autotrader or something. Where are you people getting this ridiculous stuff from?

as mentioned, that is a great deal. that'ts the price most of them with typical mileage SELL for (asking is always higher).

of course, whether or not you want to deal with the headaches of owning a type r is up to you.

you work in the torrance building huh?

you work for honda, and your asking ppl on the interweb?

imo i say dont buy it, i say let somebody else buy it that deserves it more then you.

Yes, keeping it from being stolen or molested will be something to worry about.
Yes, in Torrance.

LOL, you sir are an ass. So because I don’t know the current market value for a special limited production vehicle in a particular given region, Its makes me somehow less deserving to own such a vehicle.
Brilliant, what a genius.:slowclap:

have u seen the car yet? maybe its a lemon?

$11,000 is rediculously low for such low miles. I smell a scam.

:iamwiths:

God, you guys are dense. It is not a fucking scam. he works for honda corporate. honda corporate owns the vehicle and wants to get rid of it. they turned to their employees first. fuckin aye

Buy it and sell it to me :)

It's fake yo!

Fudgen if I had a 97 ITR with that low mileage and was selling it, I be asking for like $25,000 or more! The 97 ITR is RARE! I think only 1000 were made in the world (or was it 500?).

Do more research on it, if its legit... Buy it and SELL IT for more!!!!!!!

:laughing: You did not read the whole thread did you.

Anyways the sale is over. As it turns out they did not list the actual price. Tax and license were not included (it usually is), plus it was not located in California (shipping will be an additional estimate of $1000). So in the end the price went up substantially.
I did not get it.

wow where did you find this?

good choice. freakin cool car, but way too much headache imo.

Should've bought it and resold it if you didn't want to keep it. Even with tax and shipping you probably could've pocketed 7-8k+

you can get a JDM DC2, shipped for less than that. go for it anyway

i seen a 97 with 86k on it go for 13k should have let me buy it, where i live i dont have to worry about people breaking into it and stealing it. :D

Thats really low. Probably a stolen one, my buddy had a 97 ITR that just got stolen not too long ago too......
