Sarcasm or serious? They never came in Milano red in the US, only Europe as far as I'm aware. Might have been a salvage theft though repainted after recovery.

I’m pretty sure it’s just a respray

Maybe those wheels are lighter?

Didn’t think we got red ones, and I don’t think ITR’s had sunroofs, but it does have 5-lug hubs. Wonder what its deal is.

Stock ITR wheels are forged and super light, if I recall correctly. Hard to beat unless you just need more tire.

They only came in White, Black, and Yellow. If he resprayed it that color, well....that wasn’t smart.

There are worse colors to paint a ITR

It was just poorly modified

As others have implied, it wasn’t a real one. R’s don’t have sunroofs.

Correct on them not having sunroofs. Looks like a regular Integra that someone put Type R parts on.

The early ITR’s, the ones that were all Championship White, had 4x114.3 wheels, same as the 4th gen Prelude and the 4th and 5th gen Accords. I used to have a set of 4-lug ITR wheels on my 4th gen. The ones from ‘98 on got the 5-lug wheels and a few color choices.

Ah, thought so, thanks. Are you sure about the wheels? I’m fairly certain all the USDM ITRs had 5 lugs from the start. I think you’re right about earlier JDM versions though, they were 4-lug if I’m not mistaken. Maybe you had a set of those wheels?

You’re right, they were all 5-lug here.

It also has production numbers by color on one page, which says that 97-98 USDM cars were all Championship White, while 00-01s were all either black or yellow. So I was somewhat wrong there, too.
