I think the Canadian version might have had one but not sure, personally I like the purity of the type R, I think a sunroof takes some of that away, plus the weight, but that's just my opinion, you could always get a dealer installed one (about $1000)

You can still get it installed using OEM Honda parts at your dealer but it'll cost you a pretty penny.

Coming from a GSR to an ITR...

There's a lot more helmet room w/o the sunroof. It's nice, I can sit up straight!

Ì got an OEM GSR sunroof on my Type R.. the only thing i like about it is that i am not dead hot in my car now since i didnt have air conditionning.. otherwise i think it does take purity away, but it did not seam to affect my handeling at all... ill have pics within a month!

Hey guys, I have a '99 ITR with the sunroof and here's a link to my Honda-Tech post to see pics. And it doesn't affect my handling either. I love it, because without A/C, its a blessing!! 8)
