Park Ridge, New Jersey, United States

 For sale we have a Japanese spec, 1999 Integra Type R , in Phoenix Yellow with matching yellow factory type e blk/yellow interior. The options from the factory on this car include, yellow Recaro front seats, yellow stitched shift boot, yellow stitched steering wheel, yellow stitched rear seats, factory rear tinted glass and metal pedal covers. The tinted glass on the glass has no hole for a rear wiper, not a delete, just no hole.  The 1998 to 2000 Type R Integras are highly prized as these cars are the final perfected forms of the dc2 Integra Type R. While exact production numbers are not available, the Japanese spec type r, in Phoenix yellow with yellow interior, is possibly the rarest off all Type R's.  Although I hesitate to call this car an Integra Type Rx, we have spoken with a contact at a japanese Honda dealer and he believes that this is in fact a Type Rx, because of the factory yellow interior and factory tinted glass.  The interior code on the inner door jamb reads type E black/yellow indicating that this car was born with the yellow interior.  Our contact in Japan believes that the original owner declined a couple options from the Type Rx package like blue tinted carbon interior accents, clock and keyless entry that would normally be included in the Type Rx package.  Included in the sale of the car will be an original Type Rx Japanese brochure from Honda.

This particular example, 1999 JAPANESE SPEC INTEGRA TYPE R #583 appears to have been nicely cared for throughout its lifetime, and is in overall excellent condition. The mileage currently reads 103,839 km (approx 64,522 miles), this number may go up as car is occasional driven on nice days. The car is currently titled with it's ten digit vin (DC2-1400504)  in Florida. The car is listed under a dc4 U.S. vin as ebay wouldn't let me list with the real 10 digit vin.  This is not a converted clipped car, this is a rear deal, right hand drive, all original factory car.  The only non OEM parts on this car are the spoon drop in air filter,the Jasma cat back exhaust and aftermarket pioneer mini disc radio. These modifications were performed in japan by a previous owner and the car, as you see it, is exactly as it arrived from japan after purchase. All of these modifications are easily returned to stock, if the new owner chooses to do so.

  Upon arrival in the U.S. the car was taken to the Acura dealership, where it was given a clean bill of health and any necessary maintenance was performed. There are no check engine lights, funny noises, rattles or mechanical issues with this car, everything functions exactly as Honda intended it to. The car is used and does show minimal wear. The body panels are all original Honda parts and the paint appears to be to be original as well, with the exception of the front bumper,  there has been a couple paint chips touched up on the hood and one on fender, there appears to be small front bumper scrape that was touched up as well, again these repairs were made by a previous owner.  There are also a couple paint chips on the driver side door edge and a couple on the inner driver side door jamb, where it appears that the door may have been closed on the seat belt.
 As far as I can see there are 2 dings on the car one on the rear hatch by the Honda emblem and one on the filler panel under the rear tail lights. They could most likely be fixed with paintless dent repair. There is a small crease in the right side front corner of the hood, please reference pictures. Other than these flaws the body and paint are in excellent condition, the paint shines brighly as it should.

The interior is clean and shows only a little wear on the driver side yellow Recaro, which would clean up with a light cleaning..  It appears that at one time a previous owner had a dash mounted navigation or radar detector that left an imprint on the dashboard. Other than that the interior appears to be in extremely good condition, the original Honda floor mats are also still in place.

We have chosen not to repair or repaint any panels, steam clean the seats  or even to buff the paint, as the condition of the car is so original, we leave these small imperfections to be taken care of by new owner, if they choose to do so.  Please be sure to reference the provided pictures.

I have done my best to illustrate any flaws so you have a real idea of the condition of this car, some of the flaws are small and can be tough to see in pictures.
If you are truly interested in the car, please do not hesitate to ask for more pictures or contact me for more information or questions in general at (201) 560-7429

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards

Fri, 22 Feb 2013

The U.S. News Best Cars for the Money Awards picks winners by looking at the average transaction price, five-year total cost of ownership, the regard a car has from the automotive press, reliability figures from J.D. Power and Associates and safety data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The result, according to the magazine, is "the best combination of critical acclaim and long-term value."
Ford nabbed six of the 21 categories that received awards this year, the Focus, Fusion, Fusion Hybrid, Taurus, Escape and Edge getting trophies. Toyota and its Lexus and Scion sub-brands took another five, the Tacoma and Tundra owning the two categories given to pickup trucks. The other ten awards were split between Honda with three, Buick with two, and one each for Subaru, BMW, Hyundai, Chevrolet and Mazda.

MotorWeek remembers retro icons, Supra and NSX

Thu, 16 Oct 2014

It's easy to poke a joke here and there about John Davis, the long-time host of MotorWeek. His voice is so monotonous that, from time to time, if you closed your eyes, you may think it's generated via a computer. But you have to give him and the rest of the show a lot of credit. The program has been on the air for decades, giving people direct, straight-down-the middle automotive reviews.
MotorWeek's massive back catalog of reviews are slowly making their way onto YouTube, and they provide a fascinating chance to look back on how performance cars rank against their contemporaries from back in the day. Two recent additions include the show's old looks at the 1986 Toyota Supra, the dawn of the third-generation model, and the now-iconic 1991 Acura NSX.
Both reviews are interesting in their own way. These days you hear nary a negative word about the original NSX, but MotorWeek isn't afraid to point out a few flaws. And the Supra really shows the progress of suspension tuning in the intervening decades because it has some serious body roll in the corners. Scroll down to check out both videos and get a blast from the automotive past.

2015 Acura TLX

Mon, 04 Aug 2014

Immediately after landing at Washington's Dulles airport, an Acura representative handed me the keys to a 2014 TSX with fewer than 180 miles on its clock. The four-cylinder engine started and I pointed its signature beak towards a destination in Middleburg, VA. It was a curious move by the Japanese automaker, especially considering that I had flown no less than 2,300 miles to drive the discontinued vehicle's ostensible successor, the all-new 2015 Acura TLX.
Yet spending a solid 40 minutes with a sparkling-new version of the outgoing model that still smelled showroom fresh, allowed me an opportunity to scrutinize the dropped sedan and remind myself why it had never really blown me away - it was good at doing many things, but truly great at doing none.
Time with the TSX also started me thinking about the Acura TL, the second model that the TLX will effectively replace. I have better memories of the slightly larger sedan, especially the SH-AWD 6MT trim - it's a solid driver's car - but it, too, fell short in areas where competitors, including the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Cadillac ATS, Lexus IS and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, excelled.
