Hi everyone,
I have been looking at an NSX in town, and I would like to consult you all. I was seriously considering trading in my 2001 Solara plus cash, or paying in the low 20's for it. If it matters at all, Edmunds says that the car is worth ~17-20K in good condition. What's your expert opinion on a 1991 NSX with the following features:
1991
91900 miles
black/black
Manual transmission
Good condition
Consumer Guide reports Ok's it (similar to CarFax).
Spare tire missing
Antenna needs to be fixed (it won't go down all the way).
Looks like it is missing a few tools in the trunk
Driver's side door doesn't close all the way (a small, but noticable, distance ( ~1/4 inch) between the closed door and the side panel) The dealer says that he is not aware of any accidents. He claims that it is just wear and tear, and it can be fixed easily. I'll get the service records next week from King Acura dealership.
BBS Bugatti? rims 16/17
Some aftermarket exhaust
Repainted (the dealer claims that it was done for restoration purposes, since the car is 10 years old)
90K mile service performed (replaced clutch, timing belt....)
Service records in town, worked on in town
It's been on Autotrader for a while
On Autotrader, the private seller was asking $28.5K for it. The dealer (that is now selling the car <font= italics>for him</font>) is asking $26.5K .
I'm not sure if it is in snap ring range or if the window regulator problem is taken care of. Besides the exhaust and wheels, I don't think that there are any other mods.
(1)What would you quote the price on this one to be? (2)Would you personally consider purchasing one with those specs? I can take pictures of the car sometime during the middle of next week if anyone is interested. If anyone wants the VIN, I can give you that too. Any other info is greatly appreciated. But, really what is the value of the car?
Thanks! -Thomas
