I agree that silverstone will stll be classy in 20yrs. Other colors (except black, white and red) will be old and out of fashion in the future.

imola..i've never seen it in person, is it the same color that was available on the acura CL type-s in 02?
Thanks guys
And that's why you have a yellow car in your avatar!!!!!Let's just say the more colors you are open to buying, the less you will pay and faster you will find a car.
Certain colors are simply rare and finding one in mint condition will probably mean you will be paying TOP $$$ for it.
P.S. We all know White is the FASTEST COOLEST color! haha jk :biggrin:
I wanted white, but ended up settling for red because it was a deal I couldn't pass up
either way it still looks great
and color doesn't effect the performance![]()

a lot :biggrin: .....i am just messing //

2nd NSX I have had, 02-05 looks the best--just down sizing my collection

My search was 100% for 02 white coupe. Which is impossible.
Thought about settling many times.
The best way to get a White 02 Type-R look would be by getting 92-94 with a 02 conversion.
I'm happy I paid the premium. Never looked back.
Paid around $38K
Bought it for $34K - Plus needed timing belt & new clutch.
100% Show/Magazine Condition. Awesome owner. Expensive tasteful mods.
Only 1 minor fender bender in the past which I was able to confirm was cosmetic only through owners insurance documents.
Spent some money swapping the aftermarket bumper for the OEM 02 Bumper, It had a budget Ground Control Suspension that I swapped for Tein-RE's and Some expensive Bride seats I was actually able to pocket $600 on swapping for F1 Spec CF type-R replicas. Added the Wilwood BBk & Type-R spoiler & Prospeed Chip all said and done 2850lbs dropped to 2727 lbs.
I was happy it needed the timing belt/water pump done and clutch because it gave me the chance to put a RPS clutch in it while consolidating the labor while the engine was out to have my mechanic change the head gaskets and install titanium springs and retainers and lightly hand polish the head along with replacing some normal old stuff like hoses and such.
Moral of the story is.......
Buy it as close to how you would have done it yourself. Calculate the used value of the parts you don't like toward buying what you want. And unless you plan on garage queening the NSX, value mechanical condition more important than paint work (assuming no major damage.) That will also save you from jail for assault and battery should some old lady back up into you in parking lot after you spent 12 months, plus 3-4k in travel expenses, 10 weekends of driving 100 miles, and 100+ hours on Prime to find the one absolute mint condition never painted "unicorn" NSX and then pay heavily for it.
Funny I almost bought that car from Dave many many many years ago. Really good friend of mine.
I have the same delimma as well...:frown:
I wanted a Grand Prix White, but as you know its super hard to find.
Now Im also opened up for Kaiser Silver and Black
Or Im thinking to take the cheap local silver one and paint it custom color...
I dont know what to do, please advice...
The NSX is a dream car. Make sure yours is your 'dream' and not a compromise.
