Won’t divulge too much info but the car is out of Oregon and the Owner has a performance shop that works on imports. Appears car was slightly modified at some point with the Exhaust manifold refresh and the VTEC solenoid cover etc. would love to see more detailed pics. This car is sure to break all previous records.

Maybe someone sat in the car a lot and worked the pedals pretending to drive it, like perhaps the owner's kid or kids!

Not the same as the one Ron Tonkin Acura (Oregon) shared earlier in the summer? They had a 97 with 1227 miles.

So looks like caR is not the same one from Oregon. Friend ran the carfax and it looks like this came from Georgia. Only 992 miles put on it in the first 2 years of ownership. No other records from there, but both shown in GA.

Why no floor mats? :roll: :roll:

I just read the posts about the Type R I am selling at the Barrett Jackson auction. Yes, I bought the car new and just recently decided to sell it along with a couple of other cars from our shop. I will post some more details soon.
