First of all, congrats on the purchase !!!
Second, I find it odd(I haven't read the sale ad) that someone that keeps all that stuff for the car didn't bother to keep up with the maintenance(tb/wp)

Welcome to the neighborhood. You are just in time to join us for the seasonal Northeast events including Kids Day as pointed out by DocJohn. You should also consider joining the NSXCA ($40) and then taking advantage of the perks of NSX ownership when Acura hosts us at the American LeMans at Lime Rock in July. http://www.nsxprime.com/forums/showthread.php?t=105609

As both Doc and Bob have mentioned, Kid's Day is the most fun that you can have legally in your NSX. There are a good number of Westchester NSX owners, and you're approximately the 4th yellow one in the area!! Be careful, yellow is the fastest color (to get pulled over by LE)!!! Good luck and enjoy the ride. You are also very fortunate to be within a reasonable driving distance of the best NSX mechanic and diagnostician around, our own larger than life Larry B. I also bought my car (original owner) from Greenwich Acura and other than warranty work, it really hasn't been back there! Hope to meet you soon!
1st thanks to all of you for the welcome, 2nd, thanks to gsr-nsx (dave) my wife said if i dont buy it i be kicking my self like when i missed daves car ( my youngest son is a high shool wrestler , tournaments every weekend ,i just could not get together with dave ) 92 NSX i agree with you 100% ,i could not understand it (nor could the owner) till i graphed all the mileage & ser rec. and spoke to the ser mgr., the owner is not your typical nsx or high performance car owner, most of mileage was put on earlier in it life, he always returned to the dealer for any needs ,tires , wiper blades, detailing and any body work, (when a dealer sends a customers car out for body he is figured in ) RPM 217 , i have already asked larry a few questions and hes been very helpful , , I,am a A.S.E. Master Tech( since 72 ) Retired G.M. industrial mechanic, Adjunct college prof( i still dont believe it) ,vocational auto instructor and presently a machinist for MTA(working on 2nd pension) but am a firm believer none of us are as smart as ALL of US and am sure I will be requesting his advice
