Posted locally. Asking price is high, but only 3000 miles. I have no interest in this car financial or otherwise. Just noticed it and passing it on.

This has to be the lowest mileage 1992 in existence.

I've seen this car around when I used live in the bay area. Very clean, I mean what car wouldn't be with 3000 miles on it. Crazy.

I think I would have some problems purchasing a car this age with so few miles. Not too long ago I was looking at a 1998 355 with less than 5,000 miles. I remembered my mechanic telling me a story about receiving a 348 with around 2,000 miles. He said the injectors seemed like they were covered in some type of hardened film, and that it was going to be a total engine rebuild.

Ya got to drive them...

For those that want an all-original clean ultra low-mileage NSX, even if the engine needed a rebuild, it might still be worth it.

Ever price out what it costs to put in a new interior? The leather panels, console plastics, dash, side panels, carpet, etc., will run you over $15,000, assuming 25% discount off list prices from one of the discount parts vendors. I'm pretty sure you can get an engine rebuilt for a lot less. If I'm not mistaken, I think $15000 might even be approaching the price for a new engine, again, assuming 25% discount off list.

So, assuming you were able to buy this car for say $37,000, put another say $5000 into an engine rebuild, it's still cheaper than buying a normal mileage '91 or '92 and trying to recondition/restore the interior & other stuff to "new" using OEM parts, and I don't think you can get a clean later model with similar mileage for that price either.
