Custom Honda Type R

My E-mail to the guy:

I have a question to ask you in regards to your Honda Accord you are selling. You list it is as a Type R. Now, being familiar with Hondas, I do know that the Type R Accord was never brought stateside and that it never had a six cylinder engine nor were they equipped with automatic transmissions. Now you gave out the vehicle identification number and it is a correct number, but it tracks back to a 1998 Honda Accord LX. Not a Type R.

Can you sell a car, advertising it as one model, and it not be that model? Are you able to provide proof that this is, indeed, an original Type R or is this really an LX model that has Type R badges on it?

Thank you for your cooperation.

Later, QD.

His reply:

The person I bought it from identified it as a type r.. Period.. It doesnt have sound deading in the doors nor does it handle like any accord ive driven.. Its really nice and I've only owned for about a month..

My reply to that:

I'll be honest, and I'm not at all trying to be condescending to you, but this car is not a Type R. Type Rs were right hand drive cars as they were in the European market. And I reiterate that there were no V6 engines or automatic transmissions in these cars. They also came with Recaro racing seats.

I have a strong feeling that if you are telling the truth that you bought this car with the understanding that it was a Type R, then you were scammed by the seller. There is nothing about the car that says Type R. You can a VIN check yourself for free and it will tell you that this is an Accord LX.
