It was really strange that they didn't post about the accident then suddenly revised their ad and dropped the price within one day Some people are awful at selling cars

As you can see, the theme is high-revving NA sedans. | DB8R all day. The rarity and R lineage is enough to make me want one; and I hate RHD with a passion. Yet, I'm constantly considering one. Really depends on pricing though. SR's for $18,000 is a bit rich for me although the car itself is stunning. Same with the white '01 that was posted earlier. $15,000 might be a bit much and I still question the actual model year. We'll see in a year or so if the DB8R value increase continues even though RHD isn't desired.

doubt it'll go up
they are incredibly niche...even if the ITR demo would probably prefer 4-doors

They did offer a 4 door GSR in the states which was pretty neat.

It's how the R is on my list since the Altezza and Si are in the same price range once everything else is factored in.
However, between the two RHD's, the ITR would have the least issue sourcing maintenance items since it had an LHD version here. That and support for Honda is still massive.

I Currently own both a RHD Altezza and a RHD DC2 96 Spec R.
For a daily driver, Altezza hands down. For a track hero, definitely ITR.
Dual purpose I will still pick the Altezza. I imported the Altezza myself and I can easily get 2 Altezzas for the price of a 98spec DB8R.

The ITR is fun to drive but I would not daily it. I am getting old though (37).
This car makes me want to track down a MR from Europe.

Not knowing to much about the JDM Type R market but by the looks of whats listed for sale why would someone buy your ITR over the other one for sale for $13,500 it has 70k less kms and looks to be in better condition + matching seats

Just talked to him, strange as this may sound, I guess one of the local Honda dealers has already made an offer for the car and the deal is going through, supposedly they want it in the showroom or something to that effect.
Roughly 40K
