Ok - Who here is selling their NSX?

That is way sexier than an M3. Probably more reliable too.

I'd take this over an E46 M3 any day.

Looks like all of the expensive maintenance was just done as well. I always thought that these looked pretty cool.
 
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 fixed the common interior issues like a broken door handle, leaky tail light, and turn signals, even fixing the LED's in the stereo control deck.


Since they got the BRZ/FT-86 and sold their old 80's 911 for a comparison, they really aren't even focused on writing about it anymore and are starting to get a hard on over the Buick Grand National they bought.

With this being said, if I ever decide to buy one of these which I could if a deal pops up in place of a Cayman S that I want. I would be weary of after the initial AH factor of owning it that everything in this car is what Honda used to be, could have been, and what should have been. All while having to make excuses about speed happens also in corners than in straight lines.

This doesn't matter when I'm at a race track or auto cross, but a part of me wants to spread the word that Hondas were great but the kids of today that can't afford this or realize they aren't quick in today's standards have no good hondas to buy anymore. Makes me sad...

I could just enjoy the car personally, but I feel like if I had the NSX I would have to keep it forever to be an owner that cherishes it for what it was. Life is short, that's why I'm always wanting more
 
Very clean and very nice. That shifter looks a bit odd to me though. I know it says manual but there looks to be almost no space to shift unless it was a sequential.

LMAO, $42K for a 12 year old 100,000 mile car? No, thanks.

I'm with you - lets also add in its NA 3.2L V6 with 290 Hp/ 221TQ - Quick for such a small engine though as 0-60 times were right at 5-seconds.

I just do not understand the hard-on people get for the NSX.
 
I can haz new NSEX?

I'm surprised the 0-60 is faster than a Corvette of the same vintage

For a car with a curb weight right at 3000 lbs, that engine can make it pretty quick.
 
Too expensive IMO it should probably be closer to around $30k but if the seller gets what they're after more power to them.

What's special about an NSX? It's still one of the most beautiful cars ever designed with timeless lines. Mid-engine. Aluminum. Reliable. It's still an engineering marvel, IMO.

There's many former NSX owners which sell their rides only to feel remorse and hunt around for a while only to get another one because there's not many rides that have all of what it offers.

If someone is interested in driving in a straight line it's definitely not the car for them.

I like the nSX for what it is but the pricing on these new/used was ridiculous!

The NSX had a MSRP of $88K in 2000

The Z06 Corvette had a MSRP of $50K, the base C5 had a MSRP of $39K.

Dodge Viper GTS Coupe had a MSRP of $86K.
 
I saw one on the road the other day. That's what led me to ebay looking.

Amazing how they have held their value - but most of the ones still around appear to be owned by some anal people who take care of their sh!t.

I also so the new one in a movie (Avengers?) or something - it was smokin'.
 
the one in the avengers was actually just an older NSX re skinned if you can see shots of the interior you can see what i'm talking about
 
Wish it was me, as I could use the money. Would also be nice to have memories of driving an NSX.

I wonder how collectible these cars are going to become? As pointed out, they don't really have many stats that scream at you on paper, but they were limited production. I personally like the style, but I guess it's not for everyone.

I'd have to drive one to make my final judgement, but I have definitely driven a few Hondas that felt sorted out in the handling department for me.
