(I'm not planning to buy an ITR, I just want to learn. These are honest questions, don't be offended. My family and I have owned 4 Civics, I've owned a 1st gen NSX, I'm almost as big of a fan of the ITR as you owners are)


1. $30k for that ITR, I know there is a LOT of nostalgia, rarity, and passion behind the ITR.... but seriously, like.... $30k is a crazy-town price....
Honestly, I paid much less than $30k for my 2008 IS-F, and it has about HALF the mileage of that ITR.
Like... you guys as ITR owners, don't you think $30k for that is pretty crazy?? (It's funny because I read the first page of this thread, and the guy was complaining about an ITR for $18k... lol)

2. How GOOD is the ITR? Is it black and white completely better than the GSR?
I ask because a close friend of mine has owned 4 DC2 Integras, and currently he owns a DC2 GSR and a DC5 RSX Type S. I've been around the DC2 Integra a lot, but I've never sat in, or driven a DC2 ITR.

If the DC2 ITR is >>>>>> DC2 Integra / DC5 RSX Type S, then I can fully understand, because when I went from my IS350 to my IS-F, it literally was a black and white difference of both cars. On paper, the IS-F has "only" better suspension, 110hp+ more, 2 more cylinders from a bigger and better engine. I owned my IS350 for almost 4 years, and before actually sitting in and driving an IS-F, I didn't expect it to be sooo much better than the IS350, but it is. Some things are more than just numbers on paper. Is that the case with the DC2 ITR vs regular DC2 Integra/ DC5 RSX?
My personal feeling, having autox'd and tracked a stock ITR with a tired motor and fresh suspension, no. It isn't that night and day different from say a GSR.

that being said, some of the demand comes from the rarity of the car. To find an all original numbers matching non molested ITR is almost impossible as most have been modded, theft from, or written off.

Kinda like some of the people who are making these "barn" finds in the US.
