NSX Luggage - How many pieces are there?

[Ben]

Trying to figure out exactly how many pieces the original NSX luggage from Michel Clo had. I've heard 2, and 3 pieces, but I know of at least 5 unique pieces that I've seen or seen photos of.

1. Large Suitcase
2. Small Roundish Bag
3. Large Briefcase
4. Small Briefcase
5. Leather Portfolio

Anything else? Does anyone have a full set of all 5 pieces?

Over the years, I've only managed to see 3 out of these 5 pieces, and never together in the same place.

According to the Wiki:

Luggage: four piece nested set, Michele Clo, Firenze Italy. Consists of: portfolio, attache, weekender/2-suiter ($1,145), and (I forget the name of the fourth). The "set" consisted of the last three only, which have also been available separately.

I know what the Wiki says, but I guess it needs to be updated, as I know of at least 5 pieces mentioned in my first post. The Wiki is missing the large briefcase.

I have never seen more then three, round, large and portfolio.

I have never seen more then three, round, large and portfolio.

I've either seen, or seen photos of all 5 distinct pieces.

This photo shows the large suitcase, the small roundish bag, and the small briefcase.

This is the large briefcase.

This is the portfolio.

Can you confirm that there are 5, and only 5 pieces? Or are there other additional pieces not mentioned yet?

Update to this post, apparently, there are 2 more pieces that were previously unknown to me:

6. Large Wallet

7. Bi-fold Wallet

7 Pieces?

7 Pieces? Were these last two items in the original set or were they offered as individual item sale but still made by the same company?

As far as I know, the original "set" as offered by Acura was:

1. Large Suitcase
2. Small Roundish Bag
4. Small Briefcase

The other items were sold as separate pieces. All were made by the same manufacturer and in the same style.

why is the large briefcase considered part of the set? It doesn't look like it has the nsx logo anywhere and doesnt color match the other pieces?

Not sure about the number of pieces, but I know if you buy a set used on Prime you can get a nice used Lexus for the same money. :tongue:

I just found and bought this on ebay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/220892260129?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

It looks to be the same style as the nsx briefcase but different colors. I dont have an original to compare it to but figure it would do for now until I find a briefcase some day.

I know we're talking luggage here, but FWIW there was a keychain that matches these items. The one I have came with the "Titanium" key to my car.

Since we're on the subject, a word to the wise: If anything similar is offered when the new NSX is released, I suggest you buy it, whether you're buying the car or not.
You'll be glad you did.

Possibly a key fob/case. At first I thought it was a tag for one of the cases, but its color pattern appears different.

thanks for the close up Ben, looks like getting an entire set with everything pictured so far isnt going to happen unless another collector decides to quit.

as for being a woman's bag, I umm.. bought it for my wife :biggrin:

 

[Ben]

The keyfob was previously unknown to me as well. So, that brings the total number of pieces to 8 now.

1. Large Suitcase
2. Small Roundish Bag
3. Large Briefcase
4. Small Briefcase
5. Leather Portfolio
6. Large Wallet
7. Bi-Fold Wallet


8. Key Fob

Why wouldn't you pay 1000 for the round bag. It costs 500 dollars 15 years ago. With inflation it's got to be worth the same as a Hermes bag. I'll call Clint Eastwood's daughter and seee if she is interested.
