Type R Club of America

Here is the "Certificate of Origin" for the vehicle. If anyone is interested in any specific information on the car, I will try to include it in future posts.

@bqhonda thanks for posting.
While such a beautifully kept piece of history would be wasted on me I’d still love to hear its story.

Thanks for posting the badge number. For the record, it is 97-00037.

Thanks for joining the discussion. Do you have any other photos such as the underneath showing the condition of the rear subframe and suspension components?
What's the overall history, and how was it stored?

Thank you for your time!

This is interesting. I keep trying to figure out how this car sat undriven for so long.

Thank you for sharing some info with us.
Amazing document to have with the vehicle, i personally have never seen one for a Type R. I sent you a PM as well, please let me know if you received it.

What exactly is a certificate of origin document, and how do other R owners get one? I was looking at it and couldn't really figure out what it was telling me.

I believe if you order a car new, and it is coming from overseas, instead of getting a "title" you get the COO. I think that is sufficient for sale and acts just like a title.

I may be wrong, but I had similar paperwork with my 125cc road bike from the ShwangHuang province.

It is a international trade document. Look at the print it is rike inc who it is issued to. Rike inc owns at least one Acura dealership. Pretty dang cool he has that. I don't think you get that on a normal purchase.

Any updates on this or more info??
