Isn't that one of the ways something becomes a collectible? :) Fly under the radar for so long and then suddenly be worth something, just like how certain race cars of the 50's & 60's were often scrapped or frankensteined at the time only to dwindle in numbers and later be worth millions to nostalgic 5 year olds who are now rich 60 year olds.

 

But on the other hand since collectibility is also usually tied to some type of historical signicance and also general desirability, I wonder if the NSX's general lack of "zing" to the public at introduction and even now is why Prime members don't put much stock into it as a potential high-dollar collectible? I.e., who outside of a small fraternity of a couple thousand enthusiasts really longs for an NSX and could help increase its rarity and drive up the value?  Ironically, the NSX's sleeper quality is one of the most attractive things about it to me and many others of course.

 

If this dealership were near me, I'd like to believe I'd make time to stop by. That's about the only way Acura would get me into their showrooms nowadays so maybe the owner knows exactly what he's doing. :)


Neal let me know when the show's on at Victory Honda in Plymouth!
