This should come as a surprise to absolutely no one, but there is currently a for sale on Bring a Trailer with bidding already over $110,000. And there are still three days left on the clock.

If it sells without receiving one more bid, it will still have beat out the next-most expensive Integra Type R to be listed on BaT by .

But again, this isn’t surprising. It’s honestly par for the course in the used car hellscape we now live in, and I hardly doubt this will last terribly long as the new BaT Integra Type R price champ.

But let’s dive into it. What makes this Integra so special that someone would decide they don’t want an NSX instead?

Well, for starters — and this is probably the biggest reason — this Type R has just 6,649 miles on its odometer. That means the car’s single owner has pretty much wasted this car for the past 21-ish years. Though, maybe not, because they’re in for an enormous payday.

The car also comes in what is arguably the Type R’s most sought after color, Phoenix Yellow, so that’s a nice little bonus.

The car has lived its entire life in , which I’d usually say is bad in terms of creating a rust problem, but for the life of me I cannot imagine this car saw wet weather — or any weather for that matter. The thing has done less than 400 miles per year.

Taking a look at the seller’s photos and , you can tell this car was meticulously looked after during their ownership. It’s about as close to a showroom0fresh Integra Type R as you can get in 2022.

So, I guess if you want to pony up the $140- or $150,000 it will probably take to buy this car, then go right ahead. But odds are, someone is going to list an even lower mile and more yellow Integra Type R next week, which will cost even more money. Just don’t be surprised, because this is the world we now all have to live in.

At $8,600, Would You Go Topless In This 1994 Cadillac Eldorado?
The seller of today’s Caddy claims they should be selling it at auction but says who’s got time for that? Let’s see if we have the time for this custom convertible at its non-auction price. Many of you agreed that the $950 asked for yesterday’s was “chump change.” Even...

At $950, Would You Go All-In On This 1984 Plymouth Colt GTS Turbo Project?
One of the calling cards of today’s Plymouth Colt is its “Twin Stick” overdrive gear change, which gives the car eight speeds going forward and two in reverse. Let’s see if this project car has anything else to offer. Just as Goldilocks discovered when appropriating Papa Bear’s lifestyle and...

The (and Tacoma) have a death grip on used values. It’s been this way for years. Go ahead, go try and buy any TRD trim that’s a couple of years old; it’ll cost you as much as a new one — not that you could buy a new one...

At $5,900, Is This 1984 Nissan 720 4X4 A Solid Deal?
According to its seller, today’s Nissan 4X4 shows “pride of ownership.” Let’s see if it would take swallowing one’s pride to pay its asking price. Opinions were split on how well the design of yesterday’s has held up over the years. Some of you commented that the design still...
