    For Sale for 6 years!

    I'm sure the car is absolutely spotless and all maintenance up to date. When I bought my '96 with 23,500 miles on it I'm guessing it was in pretty close to the same shape as Tabasco's car. I felt I paid about $1,500 over market at the time but it was worth it to me to finally get the right car...

    Getting Married with the NSX

    Sean, step 1- just so we understand, your future wife is onboard with this right? Step 2 - I'd change outfits near the end of the wedding into a "leaving" attire. My wife and I changed and I think it was a great idea. Step 3 little luggage space so where are you staying 1st night or got the...

    Hello. My Name is Adrian. Looking into get a NSX soon. I love this place.

    Adrian, good luck in finding your NSX, they are out there and prices today are about as good as they get. You may already know this but just take comments in stride...Shawn's comments about 3 cylinders...well he's been told before about going down slippery slopes with his comments. He's a good...

    1995 red nsx-t JH4NA1186ST000727

    Re: 1995 red nsx-t One other thought on TB/WP. My view is its got 8-9 years and 17,000 miles on the TB/WP, so let it ride for a few years before you change, take the risk I think its very small and doesn't need to be an immediate hit on the wallet :smile::smile:

    Hello, Newb here in Cincinnati

    Bruce, get the color you like most. If you have more than one color then your decision may be based on availability/condition etc.. I wouldn't say buy a white when you really wanted a yellow, in the long run you may not be happy. I've always wanted an F car but at $100k for what I want its out...

    Buying an NSX Project

    Husseinj3 This is in my view very sound advice from Tim. Save your money to get an NSX in respectable condition that leaves you with up to $5,000 for potential "fix it" stuff. If I'm reading this thread right you have $15,000 to spend on an NSX. But even if you have $15,000 in change in...

    Bay Area Christmas Dinner - Wed. December 15th

    I'm in Los Angeles Monday/Tuesday at least but if I get back on Wednesday I'd like to come. Can I gate crash at the last minute? Would be great to chat with everyone but can't commit at this time.

    Checked out this 1991 NSX, 2974 miles, red/black, manual JH4NA1157MT000843

    It just doesn't make sense to store this car for 18 years, maybe the owner thought it as an investment at the time. I've seen pictures of 15-20 1987 Buick Grand Nationals in a storage facility, several of them under 1,000 miles. People do this, but I look at this car as a "partial barn find" as...

    Acura price quote..please comment

    If I were in your shoes, I'd just take it to Driving Ambition. Quite a commute as they are east of Sacto but you probably already know that!! You'd have to leave the car, but knowing the work has been done right for me is good peace of mind.

    Confused...

    I tend to agree with these comments. When I purchased my NSX I did not put down a deposit but offered one up to the seller. I did, however, have a written document that outlined what needed to take place in order to complete the sale (PPI, price, records etc..). Both buyer and seller signed. The...

    Anyone looking for low mileage 91?

    So what is my 1996 NSX-T bone stock with 25,000 miles, all records, maintenance up to date, perfect condition worth? Are you suggesting this car is worth a premium of mid 30's?? Okay, how about $40,000 for my perfect car....anyone care to buy???

    How do you let the NSX just sit???

    Based on previous owner comments, my 96 NSX most likely has never been driven in the rain. Why start now!! Living in California does afford me many months of great weather to which I take advantage, driving the car 2-3 times per week. Problem is, I have not taken advantage of local club events...

    JH4NA21695S000025 63k mile 05

    I'm pretty much with you on this one Tim. So unless there has been only a couple oil changes, washed only when it rains, no seat bolster left and/or parked on the owners beach front property waiting for the next sand storm (you get the picture!!) $44,500 is quite a deal. Like most primers, I...

    Need Advice Before Purchase

    Suggest you get a PPI done by a reputable NSX technician. Not all dealers have them. You want someone who knows these cars inside and out. A local NSX primer should be able to help you there. Personally I'd stay away from a dealer, particularly for the car your looking at.

    Pop-Up vs. No Pop-Up headlights!

    I prefer the pop-up headlights for like many others have said regarding maintaining the lines of the car. Having said that I have warmed up a bit to the fixed headlights. I think Kyras has found the middle ground and done an excellent job by tinting the headlights. With what she did I'm more...

    New member looking for nsx!

    I'd add that, if you really like the targa but don't want to spend the extra $$$ for the 97+ and 3.2 motor, then a 95 or 96 is your only way to go. Lots of prior discussion about the rigidity/weight of the coupes (any year), but my view is how noticeable is it unless you are driving the car at...

    New member looking for nsx!

    I think his sales pitch/write-up is a little over the top. It is my view the car does not have very low miles and unlikely to have been pampered and garaged. Although, Sun Valley is an area on the east most side of the San Fernando Valley, LA. Its typically a smoggy, dusty and windy area...

    '96 NSX-T JH4NA1180TT000305 Any opinions?

    bjay007, you must be a risk taker :wink::wink: price wise and with all those goodies I'd say looks reasonable. You need to have someone in Hawaii look at this car with a fine tooth comb PPI. Car looks really nice, put pictures are not an end all. Be careful, lot of miles for a SC (don't others...
