I stick with my 90% estimate and believe that if anything it might be a little low.


Also insurance companies are out to make money not break even, so the premiums would be high enough to make a profit.  They also keep quite a high percentage in their favor when they estimate costs so that they don't get burned.


People talk about all of the NSX's they see totaled, but they aren't taking into account that a large majority of these are being restored. 


Someone else was talking about the ones that were being riced was taking away from the number of cars, as we all know this doesn't take away from the number of cars.  In fact when someone upgrades to a body kit various pieces are then available to fix up the cars that have been in accidents.


Many cars when they approach the age of the NSX and an engine or trans goes out are sent to the junk yard, but with the NSX it more than pays to fix these cars up also.  I haven't seen too many NSX's that are in as bad of shape as the picture posted above.  I think that one will turn out to be a part car, I would chalk that one up to the 10% that I don't think are on the road anymore.
