Well here it is. My pride & joy - An extremely rare example of a Canadian Spec, 99% Stock, Original, Unmolested & Immaculate example of a year 2000 Acura Integra Type R with a seaminglessly put together JDM front end. Championship White Acura Integra Type R # 2000-1041 to be exact. This Car has it all - MATCHING VIN NUMBERS ON ALL PANELS, ORIGINAL PAINT, ORIGINAL STOCK ENGINE. NO THEFT, NO ACCIDENTS. Interior & Exterior wise it is a 9 / 10 Besides a little bit of fade in the colour of the seats, trunk carpet blemish, and a little bit of side bolster wear on the front seats - the interior is like new. Please note that this car does not have air conditioning. Its a true to its roots Type R : ) The same can be said for the paint. It is BUTTERY SMOOTH. A couple dents on the roof of the car as well as a couple door dents from careless parkers, it is hard to believe that the paint is almost 15 years old. A couple superficial scratches here and there, but nothing that a good cut polish cannot get rid of. The JDM front is also professionally done. Absolutely no corners were taken for the swap and it clearly shows. The headlights are the JDM HID version as well. There is however a small rock chip on the driver side bottom windshield. It is about the size of a nickel. The ONLY aftermarket parts on this car are - Alarm ( 2 fobs and 2 original acura keys included) Skunk 2 aluminum radiator JVC mp3 CD player ( I do not have the stock radio, but they can be found on ebay for cheap) There is a spoon sticker that is stuck onto the valve cover. The hatch release button has been disabled to prevent break ins. The hood release latch has been repositioned to the passenger side footwell to prevent engine tampering. Both of the above can be easily reverted back to OEM spec. Mechanically, this Type R drives like new. Car pulls real strong. When v-tec hits, its heavenly. Sure it burns a little bit of oil, but all B18's do. This car has been meticulously maintained. Parts were changed far sooner then scheduled maintenance. Nothing but the best fluids for this car. 94 octane throughout its life. Now for the history of this car - Originally bought used with 6,000km by my brother in law back in 2001 from Dondocksteader Subaru. He was the one who performed the JDM front end conversion. Did I also mention he is the owner of www.ahmautomotive.ca ? He cared for the car until 2007 when he traded it in to Autowest BMW for a 2007 BMW M coupe. Some time after that the car switched to a couple owners, all of which kept this car in stock form, accident free, and mechanically sound. When I purchased it, I brought back his first love to his shop for an entire pre purchase inspection. He was speechless. Needless to say, the car passed with flying colours. The only attention this car needs is the front brakes. They have about 15% life left in them. Both rotors & pads will need to be replaced soon. Tires are grippy yokohoma s-drives. The fronts are new, and the rears are at 70%. Slight vibration in the steering wheel due to stiff engine mounts (this was installed back in 2007 by my brother in law). I think the pictures speaks for the car. It took me a long time to find a perfect, unmolested Type R, and as it is getting older & wiser, these cars are turning into collectors items. Anyone who owns them now, tend to keep them forever. Many car enthusiasts are calling it a modern-classic masterpiece that will surely appreciate in value. In my opinion, this is the greatest car that Honda has ever produced. (second to the NSX of course). Bid with confidence. *Please note that all buyers outside of Canada are responsible for importing duties, fee's and paperwork. I will meet and/or communicate with the shipper & logistics company of your choice* I am experiencing sellers remorse on this car. The ONLY reason I am selling now is to help fund my all time favourite dream car - My cousins 1997 993 Turbo which he is willing to sell to me. I'm selling this collectors item, along with another rare unicorn + my beloved motorcycle for this dream. Please also note that if the winning bidder is paying the $2,000 deposit via pay pal. Please kindly add on 3%. Happy Bidding! |

Honda, Acura recall Ridgeline, Accord, MDX, TLX for various fuel pump issues
Fri, Feb 15 2019Honda and Acura have issued two separate fuel pump-related recalls for Ridgeline pickups, as well as Accord and TLX sedans, and MDX SUVs. Affected Ridgelines could have an increased risk of fire, while the Accord, TLX, and MDX could potentially stall out while driving. According to NHTSA campaign No. 19V053000, Honda is recalling 106,683 2017-2019 Ridgelines because the fuel pump feed port could crack when exposed to certain acids, including car wash soaps. If it cracks, it could leak pressurized fuel, which could catch fire. Vehicles with this defect are subject to a free fuel pump replacement, as well as an extra fuel pump cover. The second recall, campaign No. 19V060000, affects 437,032 2016-2018 MDX, 2015-2019 TLX, and 2015-2017 Accord models equipped with 3.5-liter V6 engines. According to Honda, fuel particulates could stick to internal components of the fuel pump. This could potentially slow down the fuel pump and hinder performance, which could cause the engine to sputter and stall. Honda dealers will update the fuel injection engine control unit software and/or replace the fuel pump, if needed. If you want to know if your vehicle is included in one of these recalls, contact your Honda or Acura dealer, call the NHTSA hotline at 1-888-327-4236, or visit safecar.gov. Related Video:
Honda to lead Rose Parade with hybrid tech
Thu, Dec 6 2018What are you doing New Year's Day? We're probably going to watch Urban Meyer's retirement bash the Rose Bowl, but we love a nice parade, too. To kick the day off, Honda will be leading the 130th Rose Parade with its own float, an Insight hybrid and an Acura RDX crossover. Not only will Honda be celebrating the new year, it'll also celebrate its 60th anniversary in the U.S. As such, the main float will be shaped like a 25-foot-tall birthday cake. And 60 band members from the historically black colleges and universities' marching bands — which recently took part in a battle of the bands sponsored by Honda — will represent the candles on the cake. It'll also be decorated to re-create the look of the automaker's first storefront in Los Angeles. The float will be called "Celebration of Dreams," a fitting title for a company whose founder Soichiro Honda famously said, "The day I stop dreaming is the day I die." (The first thing you see when entering the amazing Honda Collection Hall at Twin Ring Motegi is a large, circular glass sculpture with the word "Dream" and Soichiro Honda's signature). For the parade, the Honda Insight will serve as the official pace car, while the Acura RDX will play the role of sound car. The float itself will be propelled by a modified Honda hybrid powertrain. The main float will be flanked by five "satellite" floats, each representing facets of the company. These will include a Honda Super Cub motorbike; a floral representation of a 1975 Civic CVCC; a float with crash test dummies and an arch with five stars to represent safety; a Honda Accord, which is built in the U.S.; and a float incorporating elements from the HondaJet to represent the future. The Rose Parade broadcast begins bright and early at 8 a.m. Pacific on Jan. 1. Check out the rendering at the top of the page to get a sense of what to expect. Related Video:
2014 Acura MDX ad campaign the most expensive in brand's history
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Realizing that it must spend more marketing dollars to compete with the more established luxury automakers, Acura is preparing to launch its most expensive ad campaign ever for its redesigned 2014 MDX. At $78 million, according to Advertising Age, the new "Made for Mankind" campaign that kicks off next month is exactly double what Acura spent on the 2013 RDX launch last year. It's also the brand's first cooperation with its new agency, Boston- and Los-Angeles-based Mullen Advertising. Thanks to its bigger budget, we'll be seeing ads for the MDX pop up just about everywhere from television commercials, cinemas and billboards to videos focused on computers and mobile devices.
The first such video is entitled "Human Race," and it enunciates Acura's recent tagline highlight, the synergy between man and machine. More interestingly, the 2014 MDX, which went on sale this month, doesn't make an appearance in the 60-second spot until close to the end. This video is posted below as well as a press release from Acura along with images of various ads we should start soon.
