After all the praise and love from Inside Line when they bought a 1991 and were to drive it for 20k miles they seem to not even bother writing about it.

they write about it quite a lot, a couple times a month at least:
http://blogs.insideline.com/roadtests/Vehicles/1991-acura-nsx/

although they just said they are looking to sell it.

personally when I get one, I'm going for a 1997+ model. lots of small improvements through the mid 90s that add up. I'd rather have a high mileage car where all the problems are known.

Eh, believe what you will. Many people who don't know what a NSX is look at it and ask, "is that the new Corvette?".

I certainly don't believe that. It looks nothing like any Corvette ever released, and it has Honda badges all over it, even though it is an Acura here. The only people who could possibly think it is a new Corvette are people who know nothing about cars, so they wouldn't recognize styling cues that point out the age of a car in the first place.

As many others have said here. Nice looking car, but $42k for a 12 year car with 100k miles? No thanx.
 
Nah, 400bhp would be perfect for that chassis, wouldn't have to mess with the tranny or anything. I drove one with that setup years ago and it was a screamer. It could match Italian stallions and bulls that were many times the price, while being much more reliable.

I think using the "General public mistake it for..." argument is pretty weak when it comes to cars.

The GP are largely inattentive, clueless imbeciles when it comes to identifying cars.

I've been asked, of my 2006 MX-5, "What year Porsche is that?" or "Oh my God! Is that a Maserati!"

-.-

It's more of a sign that people are clueless than necessarily that a car is gorgeous/resembles something it isn't.

FTFY. I had one of those monster sized SuperMicro tower cases a few years ago. Some guy commented: Man that is a big hard drive!

I was like: Hard drive? They're standard size hard drives.

He meant the tower.
