if you can find or have a look at the service history - price is pretty reasonable if it lives up to what the owner says
just double check there are no encumberances that come with the car - either a REVS check or get the vin & engine number and email Honda Australia for clarification..

thers a slight mis-alignment with the front and rear bar..
driver door looks abit mismatched too..

but yeah just check out the car and drive it..
if your not sure bring a friend or a mechanic

Hmm also the leather where the gearknob is, doesnt have red stitching so maybe thats been changed

dont even bother with it.........
my mate went to look at it a month a go or so to buy.... its been written off due to seats being stolen only..... at least thats what he tried telling my mate, (he forgot to mention the fresh front end re-spray and repairs)

notice the front bar not lining up with the guard......i didnt see this car personally, but my mate didnt buy it.....so mustn't be that good

i looked at this car last year at a melbourne dealership in South Melbourne, car was in a crap condition and the description on car sales from the dealer was misleading. Front bumper has been poorly restored, a deep scratch to the bumper near the left lights was apparent its been repaired poorly. The whole right side of the car has a different shade of yellow which to me has been repainted. Look motor looks fine but get it checked out if you are serious and don't mind the repair history.

I ended up giving up finding a yellow ITR with yellow seats long ago and went with a championship white ITR with red recaros.

Look if your after a nice and well loved DC2R then look at this:
http://firesport.com.au/cheapest-honda-integra-type-r-car-trading-point-sales--ad154783.htm

found this on firesport and no I don't know the guy but as you can see its been well loved and plus its a got a JDM ITR engine, being a bayside blue don't cut it for me but do consider it since its cheap.

Cheers

karvinw
28-05-2010, 10:53 PM
lol, stated before tht the recaros were stolen and rear and front bumperd are repaired(poorly)

yeah i asked him about the problems, he just didn't reply

kairi_k
29-05-2010, 07:03 PM
i have hear so many ppl who are selling dc2rs that their recaros were stolen. wth??

infurNOS
29-05-2010, 11:40 PM
i emailed this seller, she provided me VIN and engine number.. everything looks genuine, reports say no finance, or accident history.

krogoth
02-06-2010, 12:12 PM
^^which seller?

i also saw that yellow R in Narre, the guy is a bit of a lost soul

i didnt do any incumberence or accident history checks, so cant comment on that

paint was not in the best condition, and there were a few plops of bird shit on the car, which is a bit strange for som1 tryng to sell a car

the parcel shelf has this stupid hat on it, and 2 red 6x9 speaker covers, but they are just covers, the 6x9s are not there, the covers are just to hide two big fk off holes in the parcel shelf

the engine seemed to be in good condition, the gearbox and clutch too

the dude said it came with speakers in the add and climate control, when i saw climate control i though wtf integra came with climate control, the car didnt even have air con, i asked the guy where is the air con, he reckons he doesnt know, and im like why does it say climate control on the add

from memory there was also some bs about the steroe, cant remember much tho

black recaros, so another wtf observation

i was considering telling him id take it for 10k just to troll, but i didnt even bother..........

infurNOS
02-06-2010, 01:37 PM
the yellow one from narre. Don't bother with the yellow one for 15k, its a remarkable write off..... I'm selling a red one if interested?????

infurNOS
02-06-2010, 01:38 PM
Ops repaireable not remarkable lol

krogoth
02-06-2010, 01:41 PM

infurNOS
02-06-2010, 02:02 PM

black recaros, so another wtf observation


Did all yellow dc2r's come out with yellow recaro's? cause it seems like most yellow dc2r's i see have black ones. One of them being my mates yellow dc2r; black recaros with red stitching

There's heaps of better colours out there on the market now. Usually people don't like red dc2r's. Is red your preferred colour?

People generally avoid Milano Red because of the issue of fading... there is NO ISSUE if you take care of your car.. Regular wax and polish :)
Red comes up very nice when you take some time cleaning her up :) Plus it doesn't show dirt up as easy 2 haha :P

AYSHUNBOY
06-07-2010, 04:51 PM
yea man if your interested .. do some research on the car or just go down there with a mechanic and test drive it .. gl man

teggiboy
06-07-2010, 04:52 PM
fair enough...each to their own I guess. Red seems to not have a very good resale value, so I was just curius why chinx_4eva would want to go for the most expensive one on the market.

chinx_4eva
06-07-2010, 05:29 PM
yea, i personally didn't like the red colour.

the price is set really high but maybe after some negotiating he'll be able to drop the price down :)
i particularly like the sunroof that comes with it, as it was a factory option i assume and many type R's don't have it :(
the colour does look abit faded on the pictures, but all will tell once i get see it
probably tomorrow or in a few days time since i have work off :D

thanks for the comment guys!
