But in this case, rather than the money going towards children, it's going towards douchebags?

Well, ostensibly you’re buying merchandise for yourself and that spending is your entry... it’s not a donation... if they do run it like other places do.
One would hope you actually wanted said merchandise and aren’t just buying it for an entry...

Man, money is one thing, but selling ITRs, really need to screen the next owner.
no different from interviewing the boyfriend that dates your daughter.

I wonder if these guys are required to properly register with BCLC for such a thing.

Any commercial contest in Canada would fall under the laws and regulations of the Competition Bureau of Canada and the Competition Act.
If you suspect they’re not abiding by the law, file a complaint with the Competition Bureau.

They can say you're buying a hat, and it comes with a chance to win something later. Just like when you buy Tim Horton's coffee, you can win a car, but that's not gambling.

like everything these clowns do, they're just jumping on the bandwagon
many auto YT's have given away vehicles over the past few years. There's a law corp that handles the contracts for all of them, handles the draws etc. DDE is just promoting a lottery being run by a completely different organization, while receiving a huge pump from the merch sales. This setup is different than the private BS Facebook raffles/waffles that have cropped up recently. For better or worse these YT giveaways are legit.
Real YT money these days comes from the merch, not the views. Giveaways drive merch sales, and tap into the "loot chest" mentality. They'll make a bundle on this in real money + the exposure.
It's super unlikely that canadians will be eligible to enter as it's way more complicated for the lawyers ($$$) unless they think their local fan base here is worth the trouble

96 spec dc2R in general are less expensive
May be less than $10K for a Grade 3?

96' spec R nowadays have increased quite a bit... i think they should go for around 9-10k landed nowadays for a half decent example.

96 R starting to creep up as USA buyers starting to get involved.
I asked Kevin (former 01 ITR rebuild owner) a few questions about the car. It has no AC and no floor mats. Car had 16" Volk CE28 and red Recaro front seats when sold to current owner. Suspension is Tein Circuit Master Super Racing that cost him $2700 USD. Has Skunk2 Pro Series Plus camber kits front and rear.

96spec also the lightest by a large margin over usdm
rhd might not go auction-crazy but the days of people scoffing at them here might be over soon...the difference might be end up being 10-25% vs 40-50% cheaper
they're generally in better condition too (if you ok with likely a smoker history)

That rust doesn't look that bad at all. The bottom of my 2013 looks like that.

That bit of surface rust on the removable components seems like nothing to me, it would be easy enough to get cleaned up if it really bugged someone though. I'm more intrigued by what look to be some funky horns in the front end from below shot lol.

Yea, he mentioned having an air horn set up but it is not working currently.
Agreed that the rust isn't a huge deal but comparative to others that have come through BaT, it will hurt the sale. That versus a completely rust free underside could sway pricing by thousands.

yellow ITR looks pretty good.
the surface stuff is just superficial. Nothing a day of removing the suspension arms, forks and the subframe, then spending some time in a sand blast booth.
looks like a nice driving example that'll require minimal elbow grease. will be a nice buy for someone.
