2022 NSX Type S Registry

so #262 has red calipers....#120 could not have been motorworld sale as 262 was only allocation..
 
who has # 259?
 
The LBBP imho definitely reduced the andaro blue take rate because it is very nice and not a 6k upcharge...
I was very surprised as well and you are probably right about the reasoning behind color choice. We are only at ~63% reporting. There's more to go. Only 41% of the GGM have been discovered so far.

thanks changed calipers to red.
as for #120, I did get a hit on it at Motorworld but the cached page is now not available. There's no other references so I'll remove it. Here's the search and the listed result showing Motorworld:

The first draft of the NSX Type S tracker is now complete and posted in the "NSX Prime Library". (https://www.nsxprime.com/resources/) Whew! I have data on 6 of the JDM cars but need to make room on the posting (only a 50K character limit) before it can be posted. The tables will be updated as data becomes available. Feel free to message me here or directly with information or error corrections. Enjoy
Just looked up the list, weird my #210, curve Red is not on there.

no worries. it will be added. FYI, I searched for it again and couldn't find any references on the net. Can you confirmthe interior options (ebony alcantara), wheel color is Black? Thanks Dealer where it was sold would be appreciated as well.

I've been able to closely study the "Japan shipment video" and have extracted all the visible chassis numbers posted on passenger windows (Left side). I've also closely studied the center section of the visible wheels and have determined all are Berlina Black with the exception to the LBBP car that clearly showed the Shark Gray Matte wheels. FWIW, none have the XM antenna. The last table in the NSX Type S tracker now contains these entries. Also updated is new color coded and reformatted tables for the domestic VINs. You can select and zoom in groups of 40 cars. Later, I'll add a header to each for easier reference. Thanks to @Reifen for his posting earlier (https://www.nsxprime.com/threads/ns...your-pictures-here.217271/page-2#post-2049312) that confirmed what I am seeing in the data. There're a few holes left in the car production and number assignments, but we have enough data points to complete pictures for the Canada and Japan VINs/Chassis numbers (noted in the tracker). We are up to 228 cars now! For those that are interested here's the capture screen shots showing the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th cars in the Japan shipment video confirming the chassis numbers (wasn't easy to capture a clear frame)

2nd car after the GGM, a 130R White: NC1-1500026

4th car in the row, a 130R White (w/o the rear deck spoiler): NC1-1500028

Sherlock!!!!!
 
A few additions to the registry, sadly it's tough to get the interior colors. I can probably fill in the dots down the road.

224 is GG, delivered to Acura of Puerto Rico
132 is Orange/Black
299 is Nouvelle Blue
80 is GG, Delivered to Hendricks Acura NC
278 is Curva Red Paragon Acura, NY
179 is 130R White
167 is Yellow, located in NJ. I saw it but forget to snap an interior pic
345 is 130R but you have it as Casino, Ontario, CA
12 is Valencia/Red
200 is GG

# 195 was built mid-August. The Acura dealer we worked through is 52 miles away. Other than dozens of visits to bridge-build we had not done business with this dealership before. The deal was for MSRP although the dealer demanded $20K deposit instead of the usual $10K deposit (they’d been burned twice on earlier NC1 orders). We let it sit center stage on their showroom floor for a couple of weeks, and accepted delivery 9-13-2022. Too low to get onto a 33’ gooseneck trailer even using race-ramps, etc, I reluctantly drove it home. It was VERY difficult placing it on “ignore” for the recommended two months before paint protection filming ~ 85% of it.

BUILD: Valencia Red Pearl with full red leather, red calipers, lightweight package, grey wheels.

PRO’s: Exterior paint, build quality, view from cockpit, blindingly fast, pulls hard every gear, AWD, a solid package, value proposition as a held asset.

NEG’s: Lack of communication during the ~13 month wait. Fuel tank the size of an amoeba ball, lack of cockpit cubbies, less trunk space than older NSX’s, twice as difficult to get out of as our other NSX’s, dreadful music controls (wth is wrong with rotary controls?), way too many damned “nannies.”

IMPRESSIONS: Double the ponies of our other NSX’s make this a weapon. A true weapon. The EV mode, and EV coming in and out in Sport mode, is ghostly funky. Louder than I thought it would be when the happy pedal is engaged - pleased for that. No track mode yet – that can wait.

TO DATE: 3M’s best PPF, Sliplo rub strips installed under front fascia, Premium mat set (recommended as the stockers leave a lot to be desired), and a Rove model R2-4K forward facing in-car camera hard wired/installed.

Got to enjoy it for a month before a professional hand wash/dry, and now into winter slumber with 717 miles. Likely the icing on our NSX collection cake!

Thanks to all of you NC1 and Type-S NSXPrimer’s for sharing your experiences and recommendations.

You sneaky sneaks....lovely color....
 
Didn't tell anyone until it arrived at the dealership. Seemed to be vapor until then.
And even then, still a concern the dealership owner/principal might try to muscle it 🏋️‍♂️

345 is indeed Casino White ;)
 
But 350 is domestic...

Back in 2016 communication about where things ere on your order was a bit better, but highly variable across dealerships
Honda was/is not set up for higher end product with high touch customer service
I would say my selling dealership really tried, and my servicing dealership has been great for the past 6+ years
 
But 350 is domestic...
based on the data collected, Canada is from 331 to 345. Corporate (not sure if this is Honda or Acura) has 5 units (that was mentioned in several press articles). My guess is that 346 to 350 are those aforementioned units.
 
Lots of Type S registry data coming in the last 48 hours. So many ppl to thank for their contributions and data collecting. We are up to 245 of the 350 cars. That's 70% down and 30% to go. LBBP continues to lead the pack with GGM just one count behind at 35. NBP is still way at the bottom at 2.4%. Big updates to Canada productions. More option details across many cars and more to come. Table formatting has improved along with coloring for interior color/types. For those VINs we believe are valid but with no information are listed with exterior colors that are "unknown". Any help on at least the exterior color for those VINs would be greatly appreciated.

So, here's a new stat for y'all to grasp; what's the popularity of OEM wheel choice color?
Of the 114 cars with the wheel option identified 62% are Berlina Black Gloss and 38% are Shark Gray Matte!
 
Number 97# is Curva Red with Ebony standard interior. Matte Finish wheels. No carbon fiber brakes. No lightweight package. Signature interior. Sold at Fountain Acura in Orlando, FL.
 
# 281 at Bob Howard is on cars.com listed for 187k....anyone know the real price?
 
It's that time again, for an update to the NSX Type S tracker in NSXPrime Library. Big thanks to @The Kid, a huge contributor to this last update (I am glad he is an avid Instagramer). We are up to 306 cars with only 44 or 12.6% of the cars to go. Gotham Gray Matte is now leading (no surprise) with 47 cars or 15.4%. Long Beach Blue Pearl sits second with 43 or 14.1% (very surprising to me). The rarest Type S color is Nouvelle Blue Pearl with only 9 cars or 2.9%! Many of the updates filled in not only exterior colors but missing configuration data points. Japan imports are going to be the toughest to figure out. I have seen many pictures of cars in Japan on the net, but they lack car number information. If anyone has an Exclusive Car Registry gold account, they may have the car/vin information for the many pictures posted on their site. A silver membership didn't give me access to that information. Of the 186 cars with confirmed wheel colors, 58% are Berlina Black Gloss and 42% Shark Gray Matte. Amazing that its almost even between the two. I thought Berlina Black Gloss was going to lead by a larger margin. Here's a new stat, Caliper popularity. Red is the big winner. Silver is the lowest even though it is a photo sample launch choice for IYB, LBBP, NBP.

Oh, don't think that orange calipers were only selected with Thermal Orange Pearl cars. I found them on Gotham Gray Matte and an Indy Yellow Pearl cars!

A couple more updates to the NSX Type S tracker to close out the week. 11 more cars added taking the total to 317. Also got some corrections from a few folks....TYSM and I fixed a bunch of typos in the exterior colors that prevented them from being counted. NBP just barely went double digits; but still trails the bottom pack running about 50% of CV, IYP, TOP and VRP. 50 GGM have been found! What we don't know is if all 70 were actually allocated (imagine that). Japan will be the big contributor at this point. The next two popular colors are CWP and LBBP they are both over 40 units each. Berlina Black is just behind these two with a whopping 38 units (wow never thought BB would be that high). Then comes 130R.

The following cars are still completely unknown:
#129 19UNC1B01NY000129
#147 19UNC1B03NY000147
#295 19UNC1B07NY000295
#296 19UNC1B09NY000296

Anybody heard or seen any of these cars?

Soon I'll be tackling the estimated MSRP (not selling price) based on the configuration. I have found dozens of window sticker posted on the net. The process should be pretty straightforward. Let me know if you have any questions or want other interesting analysis perform on the data. Keep the information coming.
