This is the info my exporter sent me:
1998 NSX type S 3.2liter. 6MT. Pearl white color. Mileage Uncertainty. AC,PW, ABS, Leather seats, AW, Aero Parts,

I will mod it with taitec center exit exhaust and a taitec diffuserand a nice GT500 wing from Taitec
and maybe some other rims

I think that has to be the ugliest NSX I've ever seen. I think every single non stock body panel on that thing is absolutely ridiculous. (I sure am negative today!) 48K euros would seem kind of steep for that car here in the US, but maybe over there it's reasonable. Frankly I'd take $$$ off the price just for the ugliness since I'd be looking to put it back to stock and that could run some serious $$$ if he's not including the original body panels.
 
I kinda like the front part i would change the rear as that looks quit ugly
Exhaust (center exit taitac looks great)
Rear Difuser form TaiTec
And a nice Spoiler (from Burnup or TaiTec)

I like JGTC/Super GT style!

The netherlands is RHD, I didn't know.

I don't have an opinion on the car, but I always admired the Type-S.
 
For that price, you can find a 92 to 95 Type R.
 
Yeah got a Offer for a 1995 Type-R Black (49,000 euros) but i like the 3.2L 6MT and i am going to tune it and still want to use it as a every day car
 
Man robr, you are on a roll today...

not my style, but remove 1/2 that stuff and it would be nice...seems like a deal, i would buy it.

Can any one say what they think about this car?
Is it a good deal?

Utterly hideous and the price is too high. In fact, the car is worth virtually nothing to me considering the level of molestation it has endured.
 
Hmm...................

Why oh why mollest a type S :?: and IMHO badly.

To put it back to standard would be a lot of $$$ but it would be a rare car.
Personally I would wait for a standard type s / zero to come up.
 
Hmm
Ok thats a lot of Tips i will give you my plan so that you know what i will do to the NSX wichever it is:

JGTC front bumper (all ready has it)
JGTC font Fenders (all ready has it)
JGTC Side skirts (all ready has it)
JGTC Rear Fenders (all ready has it)
JGTC diffuser (I will have to install it)
JGTC spoiler (I will have to install it)
JGTC exhaust (I will have to install it)
JGTC hood (I will have to install it)
Recaro racing seat(All ready has them)
Twin plate Clutch (All ready has it)
Suspension (All ready has it)
Brembo brakes (I will have to install it) 8 slit rotors!
NEW rims (I will have to install it)
Lambo doors (I will have to install it) found the kit for a great price!
NA stage 3 Tuning (I will have to install it) 13,000 euro complete engine overhaule and tuning 352BHP

AND I JUST GOT SOME MORE INFO FROM MY IMPORTER:
1. Mileage : 18000km (because the previous owner has changed the cluster, it
might be a little higher).
2. Body : There are almost no-scratches and no-dents. The fitting of the
aero parts is very good, and the paint job is also very good. There is
no-accident history.
3. Interior : Very clean.
4. Engine : non modified
5. Aftermarket parts : 17in AW, Aero parts, suspension, muffler, twin plate
clutch.
 
Sounds like you are really convinced, if that is the case go for it.

IMHO, I would stay away from this car. It is barely cheaper than other 3.2L NSX with accident history. Most of the 3.2L cost significantly more.

Are you trying to convince us or yourself?

It seems like you want it but want some sort of approval from us... ???

Okay... It's a great car! It's very rare and it's a Type-S... Grab it before someone else does!

It's YOUR decision now...
 
just do it!

(well said above :cool: )

... and send me the Recaro's from the Type_S and I'll send you any comparable Recaro available in the US in your choice of color/fabric/material.
