and the dealer told me its going to get here May of 2005!! That's half a year! I specifically want a silver/onyx 6 speed. Does anyone know of a dealership that has such a car in stock? I really don't want to wait that long!
Just ordered an 2005 NSX..

I don't think any of them have an 05's yet. But there's an 02, the exact same car, on Ebay that's alot cheaper.

Greenwich has a blue '05. I don't think Acura would announce a lease offer for '05s if none of the dealers had them.
Thanks for the link. Unfortunately I'm looking for a brand new one.

So...I just have to know...is it the amazing lease deal that is provoking the acquisition of a new 2005?? :smile:
Unless there's a buy-it-now price posted, which there isn't, we have no idea how much money it would take to buy the car, since the seller's reserve price is not disclosed.White92 said:

The announcement of the lease deal did give me motivation to order the car, but if it comes in May I'm not sure whether the deal is still in effect. According to the dealer the car only qualifies if its physically in their showroom, and the deal is still going on.
Does anyone remember whether the '04 deal was still in effect during the month of May '04?
With a few keystrokes on their computer, your dealer can look up exactly which dealers throughout the country have a new 2005 silver/onyx 6-speed in their showrooms.
Normal procedure is for dealers to work out a deal if one dealer has a customer and a different dealer has the car he wants in stock - either swapping cars, or for some cash consideration. If your dealer isn't willing to do that (because they're so greedy that they want ALL the profits from the transaction, and don't want to give a portion to another dealer), tell them they will lose the sale...

Since the first 2005s are just starting to reach dealers (Greenwich's is the first NSX built for the U.S. market for the 2005 model year, VIN 5S000001, and Niello has a 2005 yellow automatic that is 5S000007), it's possible that most other dealers haven't received any yet. And, of course, not every dealer will receive any (let alone the color combination you're looking for).RyRy210 said:
According to their website, Greenwich Acura has a new silver 2004 NSX-T 6-speed (and an automatic silver 2004). I don't know what incentives are available on a 2004 vs 2005, or lease deals, but you might consider a 2004 instead. (However, in addition to the distance from you, Greenwich is not exactly known for the lowest prices around.) According to Autotrader, Downey Acura in SoCal has a new 2004 silver 6-speed too. I don't know interior color on either of these... but I bet you can get a great deal on a 2004.

Look before you leap...
I got my 2003 silver/onyx in nov 03 for 77K++ @ Marin Acura.
And at the time there Niello Acura Had:
2002 silver/onyx for 76K++
2003 silver/onyx for 85K++
2004 Black/onxy for 89K++
and another one on the way
I could have driven to Sacremento to save 1K but when I told them Niello's inv. they aggreed on 77K.
(Niello and some other dealer on the east coast are the only dealers rumered to be able to have more than one NSX at a time)
There are deals out there, look around :biggrin: :biggrin:

We havent recieved our 2005's yet and they dont even appear on our allocation. I have 3 05's slated to come in and they are open orders. Thats means we can still order any color combo's we want. That lease deal is simply unreal. The lease deal is always available presuming we still have cars that have not been "burned" or reported as being sold. The lease deal is actually worse for 2005 than it was for 2004 but it is still unreal. My opinion for leasing is no matter what the MSRP is; i'll pay 1.5% of MSRP. Thats a good rule of thumb and normally a reasonable deal. Anyways the last new 2004 we sold was for roughly $83k. I would love to see some PRIME member get a great deal on a new 2005 so PM and we can chat..

What does 'burned' mean??

This must be your lucky day! I see you're in Southern California and I believe Downey Acura has an '04 silver/onyx in stock at this moment. You can go here to look at their inventory and get their phone number. This car has been there for months so I think they'll give you a good deal so negotiate hard. I bought an '00 silverstone/onyx from there back in 2001. Good luck!
Can someone explain the great "lease deal"? Is it really better to lease than to finance? Finance people usually don't recommend leasing since you are restircted as to milage and have to worry about the condition of the car when the lease is up. I like to own my car. That way I can do anything to it , like change it's look or performance. Does leasing allow any mods?

$83K...I think there is still plenty of room. I got my 03 for 77K, the only change is keyless entry and a cd change is included. (for 6K more...nice
) And I've heard of other prime members getting a better deal.
I believe Superior Acura in KC has an '04 silver/onyx on their showroom floor right now.RyRy210 said:
Many dealers around here will put exorbitant prices on stickers on the window, but will sell cars for much less. I guess they hope that some idiot will walk in and buy it at the price posted on the sticker...wagyshag said:I looked at this car - the sticker on the window.....is $93k
An '05 w/o a warranty????
Further down in the listing, it states:MarkB said:
Unless otherwise stated in the vehicle description, this vehicle is being sold "as is". No representations or warranties are made by seller, nor are any representations or warranties relied upon by bidders in making bids. Manufacturer's warranties may still apply. Extended warranties may be available; please contact us for details.
It's possible that they answer the question no because they want it to be technically correct. The seller is the dealer, which does not provide a warranty. The car (presumably) comes with the standard warranty from Acura (4 years / 50K miles bumper to bumper). However, from a practical standpoint, most people would consider the car as coming with a warranty, regardless of whether it is provided by the seller or the car's manufacturer (especially since the Acura warranty is valid for service at any of the ~300 dealers nationwide, not just the selling dealer).
A more likely explanation is that they simply made an error (probably because their standard policy is not to provide a warranty on used cars, and they are more accustomed to listing used cars for auction than new ones).
If I were placing the listing, I would have shown the warranty as "Yes".
