I was just wondering, after reading about that guy's "50 mile ITR" in the other thread, who out there has a low mileage ITR besides that one? The last year they made them was '01 so the miles must be adding up on all those ITRs out there.. I thought mine was low at around 15000 kms but the 50 mile one should be in a museum!

 

50 Miles is pretty low. Sounds like it was never Driven.

 

my 01 has 5700 miles now...too bad i been driving it alot lately. in march, it only had 4375

 

mine has 124xx miles on it and is a 2001. i would suspect that there is less than 100 type r's with under 15000mi in the USA

 

My 01 has 11,000 on it and I just looked at one that only had 2700 miles on it, so they are out there.

 

I have a 01 with has 16K.

 

My 2000 R has about 5000 on it now... Baught the motor with 4K on it 2 weeks ago... Question for the 50 mile R dude... why even buy a R if your not going to drive the damn thing? Whats the point in looking at a beautiful car in the garage. DRIVE THAT THING!

 

I don't understand any of the low mileage cars (low = < 12k per year). Why buy a car and practically never drive it? Doesn't make sense.

-Dave, who has 70k on his 2000 gs-r, and would have at least that many if I felt like owning a 2000 PY ITR.. probably 80 or 90k.

 

Guys,
I have a 1997 CW TYPE-R with 6,439 mile on it.All original down to the original tires and battery kept in my garage.still smells new inside the car.I take it out once in a while when its a nice day to drive it.
Well as to why some one buys a car like that and don't drive it?..EVERYONE IS NOT THE SAME PERSON....DIFFER STOKES FOR DIFFER FOLKS!!!!
I plan to keep it for many more years and just do some car shows with it,i think alot of you guys will be glad to still see an ORIGINAL TYPE-R in 10 to 15 years from now and you will remember when you had your TYPE-R.


Nick.

 

thats how i am "1997 type R #103", thats why I have been looking for a new beater. I have put too many miles on my current one.
