I wouldn't be worried about seeing a number of dealers on the ownership. Check the dates, I bet a few of those ownership swaps occur within months of each other. Probably a trade in situation, but the NSX is so niche, the dealer probably wanted it off its lot ASAP, and sold it/transferred to another dealer. Don't quote me, but that's just my understanding of what happens most of the time with "special cars".

$1800 doesn't seem like a whole lot of a claim. Probably a single panel of bodywork, and the associated couple of hours to fix and/or paint the panel to match. I'd be worried if the claim was something like 4-5K. That's many parts and many hours of labour.

Only 3K km in 8-9 years of ownership is very low, but not uncommon for NSXs. Most for sale ads begin with "I don't drive this car enough". Expect to replace all of the fluids and expect some creaks and groans during a test drive, as some of the suspension bushings probably haven't budged in years! Probably needs new tires too.

All NSX windows are slow, even the fixed ones!

Good luck with your search!

Regards,

Lucas

[QUOTE="jaja, post: 1906067, member: 27887"] I wouldn't be worried about seeing a number of dealers on the ownership. Check the dates, I bet a few of those ownership swaps occur within months of each other. Probably a trade in situation, but the NSX is so niche, the dealer probably wanted it off its lot ASAP, and sold it/transferred to another dealer.
