    Upcoming Mecum Auction with NSX

    4-digit miles 02+ NSX are now definitely $100k+ cars at public auction. Have yet to see these numbers with regularity in the private market, but they're getting there. - - - Updated - - - The 1992 on BaT is now at $57,000 which is already a fantastic number for an early coupe in the 20,000...

    Upcoming Mecum Auction with NSX

    I agree with you 100%. This car is the exception (it's a very nice if not perfect example), although I'd personally put them back to the OEM silver if it were in my garage.

    '92 NSX on Bring A Trailer.

    Very promising!

    Sounds like you've got this all figured out, why not. :) In all seriousness, those seriously looking for a '02+ with ultra-low miles should contact me, this isn't the only one available... ;)

    Fantastic info, thanks! Great point on the Suzuka assembly, that's a cool fact.

    Upcoming Mecum Auction with NSX

    This is an NSX Prime car, it sold here to the dealer that's auctioning it. :) VIN is JH4NA21644S000030.

    A car with the $9400 optional wheels

    Agreed. I'll bet they'll be prized at that point too, as they'll represent the 2016 version of what "futuristic" looked like.

    A car with the $9400 optional wheels

    Wow, those are certainly some interesting wheels. I wonder how rare those will be in 20 years time.

    NSX Article on Autoblog

    Worth the wait! Thank you! I removed the approx. 10-word aside about the timing belt, it was creating a distraction from the purpose of the article: the development & engineering history behind the original NSX. I appreciate your compliments, someone has to champion the cause of this icon...

    Thanks! Interesting, I looked just now but couldn't find it. Good to hear though!

    Got it, still love your car - the wheels are a nice touch. Thanks, and yes, it's nice to know the NSX coupe chassis is 100% Senna approved. He's much of the reason it ended up being as stiff as it is.

    Thanks, and congrats on 20 years of ownership if my math is correct. :)

    NSX Article on Autoblog

    Thanks guys, I really appreciate the compliments. It means a lot coming from this crowd, I am a relative newcomer to the NSX world. I thought that historical detail was cool, I hadn't heard it before conducting research for this article. The NSX design seems to always be linked to the F-16...

    NSX Article on Autoblog

    I'm in Southern California, which probably affects pricing. That said, I've been quoted at over $5k by an Acura dealer, $4k if they did it with the engine in. Obviously I would never pay that myself, but people looking into these cars should be presented with the median scenario, not the "best...

    Engine-in is definitely possible, just not preferred in my opinion. :)

    Updated Hagerty Values

    I'm unsure of how an owner's stated value would bear any indication of actual value. One monitors private sales by reaching out to the seller and/or those who know the actual details of the sale (actual selling price, which public asking price has precisely zero bearing on!).

    NSX Article on Autoblog

    Because that's the proper way to do it, and that's what a reputable shop will charge (assuming you do the water pump and any necessary "problem" coolant lines at the same time).

    Updated Hagerty Values

    They're good, but they aren't magicians and they can't track every sale. Like I said, they're great with super-collector cars (which have many if not most of their transactions happen at public auction), but they aren't the best with higher production cars like the NSX, where most transactions...

    95 LeMans Poster w/NSX

    Super cool! The #47 car campaigned by Honda in the GT1 class didn't finish that year, but the #89 "Team Kunimitsu Honda" car driven by Japanese racing legends Keiichi Tsuchiya, Akira Iida, & Kunimitsu Takahashi won outright in the GT2 class. I think a lot of people are unaware that our NSXs...

    Updated Hagerty Values

    Gents, I think we're putting a bit too much stock into the Hagerty valuations. Remember, they cover hundreds of cars and their numbers are always going to be a bit behind the game. They're good when it comes to super low-production collector cars where sales are widely publicized, but for...

    Updated Hagerty Values

    If the car is in nice condition and stock, it should be in the 40s pretty easily. The 30s would be too low.

    Yes, I was joking. :)
