Greetings Primers, this I promise will be a good read (although not as good as Yinzer’s). But I promise (or sincerely hope) you guys get a kick out of a little bit of it. I have also included the required pictures to prove it happened!
First off, I have to give a big thanks to Tyson (4cruzin) and Ngoan (skafia). Here’s where the story officially starts. I have been a LONNNNNNG time lurker here on Prime never wanting to join because I wasn’t officially an NSX owner yet. There were a few I was interested in that popped up for sale (itrsteve’s, steveieray122854’s) but due to timing and them being snapped up before I was ready to commit, my search continued. I happened to be browsing one night a few weeks ago in the Unofficial Spa Yellow Thread (which is also the color I always really wanted) and a member here casually mentioned their car was for sale.
I asked Tyson to shoot him a PM on my behalf providing my contact info so he could reach out to me so we could discuss it’s possible purchase. Furthermore, there was a Prime member that wanted a car checked out that was actually local to me. See thread here: http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showt...ne-view-a-car-that-s-in-Jersey-City-NJ-for-me
Well, I was able to coordinate with the seller and give the car my blessing along with Ngoan doing the same for me. Once I received his report back and after seeing the pictures and realizing I could deal with the MINOR cosmetic blemishes,
it was time to get partial funding in order and to book a plane ticket. On July 6, I arrive in California (from NJ) hoping everything that was said about the car was true. Primers, I could not have been more impressed with Jay’s (analogdesigner) car. Thank GOD in the Unofficial Spa Yellow Thread he didn’t put high-resolution pictures! I firmly believe he did, I wouldn’t be typing this introduction. It’s a 2000 Spa Yellow NSX-T with 41k miles and has been meticulously maintained. It also has a Pride exhaust, NSX-R sway bar, HID kit, and a couple other things I can’t recall.
I would like to thank Jay for being one of the kindest, and most passionate people I have ever met when it comes to their car(s). I could tell from our initial conversation that he was the right person I wanted to buy a car from and me being his ideal buyer. Jay, the car is in good hands as promised. I can’t wait until it arrives next week! Now, on to the obligatory pictures. I trust this will be a long and happy time on the forum.
