1998 Acura Integra Type-r #269 Yes, A Real Stock Unmolested Typer. on 2040-cars
US $12,500.00
Year:1998
Mileage:141838
Location:
Vista, California, United States
|
Meticulously maintained real US model Type-R, #269 of only 1027 produced
this year, and of approx. 1400 total ever made in the classic
Championship White. Clean title, not a salvage! Never crashed, never
broken into.
What can I say, it's just time. Though I'm the third owner, I've owned this car for over 11 years now, and I need to move on. As you can see from the pictures, it's been in active competition in SCCA Solo racing (aka autocross), where it has a long winning history, with three National Tour wins, a Divisional series win, and more. The car comes with Simpson five-point harnesses for the driver and front passenger (they clip out and fold beneath the seats so you don't have to use them on the street), a Valentine One radar locator with custom hard mount, hard-wired power, and remote display mounted under speedo, a custom fit Block-It Evolution car cover (essential for SECURITY, not just paint protection), plus factory service manual and many spare parts. Extra rims and tires, for both competition and street, are available as well (though not included in the bid price). Deep maintenance history with all receipts for the last ten-plus years included -- a stack almost two inches thick -- and a one-page quick-reference summary! Front brake pads and rotors, and all front suspension bushings replaced in the last year. Clutch and catalytic converter replaced, and shocks rebuilt and revalved in the last two years. Motor has only 55k miles on it, and was rebuilt by Bill Brown at AEBS specifically to SCCA Solo stock rules, with all factory parts. Motor was rebuilt in the original block, and is numbers-matching. This is as hot an engine as you're going to get SCCA stock legal! Shocks are Koni yellows, revalved by ProParts specifically for SCCA stock class Solo racing. Other than that, this car is bone stock and unmolested. Comes ready to go with all the consumables race quality -- oil pan is full of Royal Purple 5W30 full synthetic, transmission is full of Redline MTL, brake fluid resevoir full of Motul RBF600, and Hawk HPS brake pads ready at all four corners. The street tires the car comes with are Dunlop Direzza DZ-101s with about 2000 miles on them and >80% tread remaining. Competition tires are also available separately. These cars are rare enough in any condition to begin with, but you just won't find another this clean, original, and well maintained anywhere. Treasure it as your unicorn, or continue its racing history and take over D-Stock in SCCA Solo competition with it! Please see the following video for more views of the car: http://www.mediafire.com/watch/jli60h72uxirjb3/Integra_TypeR_walkaround_2.mp4 In person inspection and test drive is available by appointment in the vicinity of Vista, CA 92084. Please contact me to arrange. Summary page of full maintenance history, containing date and mileage of all items, can also be sent to interested bidders through eBay's message system. Please contact me if you'd like to receive that. For those of you who saw this car listed earlier and are wondering what happened, the buyer backed out at the last minute. The day before he was supposed to sign the loan paperwork, he found out his wife is pregnant, decided he couldn't afford both a kid and his dream car, and canceled the whole deal. The auction ended at $12,500. I'll take the first offer that matches that price. |

Ford, Toyota clean up in Best Car For The Money Awards
Fri, 22 Feb 2013The 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 2014It'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.
2016 Acura ILX, for better or worse [UPDATE]
Thu, Nov 20 2014Unfortunately, the slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission has been discontinued. UPDATE: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that the 2.4-liter engine in the 2016 ILX is the same unit found in the Honda Civic Si. The ILX's new engine is the same direct-injected four-cylinder found in the new TLX. The text has been edited to reflect this. "It's just a badge-engineered Honda Civic." This (uninformed) criticism has been leveled at the Acura ILX since the premium compact arrived on the scene to duke it out with the Buick Verano and, more recently, the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-class. For model year 2016, Acura will attempt to address the car's critics, issuing a major reshuffle of the sedan's lineup along with the typical sheen of a mid-cycle refresh. Following up on the discontinuation of the ILX Hybrid for 2015, Acura is dispatching the antiquated pairing of the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder and five-speed automatic for 2016, and simply slotting in the standard powertrain of the TLX. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder produces 201 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque, with peak output arriving at 3,600 rpm. The ILX also benefits from the same eight-speed, dual-clutch transmission found in the TLX. Unfortunately, the slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission we've always enjoyed has been discontinued. Sad trombone, indeed. Powertrain tweaks aside, Acura has issued a pretty handsome freshening for 2016. The ILX was always a handsome offering, but the new front and rear clips are improvements. Acura's love-it-or-hate-it JewelEye headlights have been grafted onto the ILX, while the grille, a traditional weak point for the brand, is perhaps one of the best we've seen out of the company in several years. The rear taillights also received some attention, although it was the back bumper that saw the biggest update, with the lower section getting a sportier look. Acura will also add a new A-Spec package for 2016, which replaces the standard 17-inch wheels with 18s, adds "Euro-style" stitching to the steering wheel and adds black Lux Suede inserts to the seats, along with a flurry of smaller aesthetic tweaks. The A-Spec can be added alongside the existing Premium and Technology Packs. Acura hasn't released any interior images as of this writing, although we'll be sure to snap a few following today's debut conference at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Until then, scroll down for the official press release from Acura.
