The Mythical $25k NSX.

[nastinupe1]

If Honda would have actually updated the car instead of treating it like an unloved step child, then the 2005 NSX would still be worth something. But since it was basically unchanged from 1991, it doesn't deserve to be considered to be worth as much.

Just look at the interior... it looks like it was put together from a 1992 Accord parts bin.

And the motor is no better than a $35,000 2008 TL Type S.

The rims look like they were designed 10 years ago.

I'm sorry, but 2005's are waaaaaaay over priced for what they have to offer.

 

[EndLeSS]

This is going to get ugly REALLY fast.


If you believe what you said, so be it.
We can't change your opinion on the NSX. You can't change our opinion on the NSX.

Can we please leave it at that, instead of another 2+ pages of arguements?

 

[Jetpilot3]

Wow only 764 NA2 +02 versions out there and of those only 50 are automatics (North American numbers I'm refering to).

And to top that off only 49 Imola Oranges were made and 88 Long Beach Blue for all years of NSX's!!! Breathe, breathe, breathe...

Right...$45K for +02 models and more specifically 2005 models...dream on

 

[swbatte]

I'm not knocking the car. I'm just saying that I don't think that it's worth over $45k in today's market.

I don't think that a lot of cars are worth that much in today's market.

I wouldn't buy a Ferrari 355 for $75,000, but hey... that's what people are asking for them

I wouldn't buy a Testarossa for $100,000, but that's what people are asking.

I wouldn't buy some 1960's hotrod for $200,000.

It's not just the NSX, there are a lot of cars that I believe are over priced and over valued.

Heck, I think that people asking $30k for a 1990 Viper are out of their minds as well.

You make an interesting point. I understand why you wouldn't pay the money being asked for these cars including the NSX; I really do. However, some people would pay that for these cars including the NSX, and that determines their fair market value.

Having said that, we all realize that if we had to sell our NSXs, they are worth as much as the buyer who is willing to pay the most for our particular car (given miles, condition etc) at that time.

Right now, very few of us would jump at $25k for our NSX.

It sounds like you want the NSX more because you do not want to pull the trigger right away on another car but then you said you are impatient. You keep saying other cars like the BMW M3 and Porsches are a better buy but yet you sound like you want to wait for that great condition 2002 NSX for $45000. Maybe that is why the NSX is worth more than what you want to offer. You know you want it. That is probably why you are still hanging around waiting, then as time goes by you probably understand why it is worth more and you become impatient and buy one for a higher price than you wanted to spend initially.

Then you say that the new GTR is a great price with 400 something horsepower so why don't you wait for that since it sounds like you do not pull a trigger on an M3 or a Porsche or you would of done it by now because you did say they are a better buy. If everything is over valued then be patient get the GTR since you said it is worth the value.

You also mentioned on the above that those cars are not worth the price of what people are asking for. Then there is really nothing worth it for you because you want to spend less on exotics but yet do not want to pull the trigger on the M3 or Porsche because it does not seem to me that you really want them.

Sounds like you want an exotic more and that is why an NSX is an exotic and HONDA is not just HONDA, they have history and they built the NSX in the exotic category.

Maybe I am wrong you probably bought that M3 or Porsche already. Reading all your post these are the feelings I am getting that is why everything I said is what I feel.

I believe that every car has it's value. There are a lot of cars out there, but some are just worth more than others.

When I purchased my S2000, I bought a 2004 used for $25,000. Not because I couldn't afford new, but because I didn't think that the car was worth $36,000. They hadn't really made any major changes since 2004, so I didn't see a reason to purchase new.

I believe that at $45k, the NSX is the best bang for the buck and that the car is an awesome ride.

But over $50k and you're looking at a C6 or an M3. And I know how people feel about Corvette's, but those things are amazing. Sure you don't get the rare factor, but just for straight out stock performance, the C6 has it.

I think that I should elaborate on something that I mentioned eariler. Honda kind of left the NSX out to dry and never really improved it. If Honda had come out with a totally new NSX in 2001 and discontinued the car in 2005 and the car had specs that rivaled a Ferrari 360 or 2001 Z06 then I can see why the car's value would stay so high. It would have stayed true to what it was originally made to do. Compete against supercars of the day. It seems like the ZR1 and GT-R and have taken that torch and run with it. But you have to continually improve the car to keep up with the Jones's.

Over the 17 years or production, the NSX's MSRP increased while the performance (Other than 1997), stayed the same. To me, that's just backwards. At least improve the car over time warrant a reason for the price increase.

I owned a 1994 Civic EX Coupe 5 Sp. It had 125 hp and was "The Civic" to own back in 1994. Now you have a Civic Si Coupe with 197 hp and a 6 sp. It does cost a little more than my Civic did, but look at the advances over 14 years. If they still sold the 1994 Civic's today, I would look at Honda like "You have to be kidding me!!!" I'm not paying $16,000 for basically a 1994 Civic that just happened to be built in 2008!

In closing, if someone put $45k in my hand and told me to pick ANY sports car, it would definately be a 2002 NSX (If I could find one).

I think you summed it up well w/ this statement. "If I could find one".

I understand why you do not feel the NSX is worth current asking prices. Many people feel that way. The key is knowing what you want to pay and hoping that there is someone out there willing to sell it to you for that price.

If you BUY a clean 02+ NSX for $45K, please be sure to stay on Prime and share your experience w/ us. We are always happy to congratulate someone who finds what they are looking for.

 

[Ski_Banker]

I'm sorry, but 2005's are waaaaaaay over priced for what they have to offer.

Well, perhaps a 2005 is waaaaaaaay over priced. But I have one and you don't. Broke motherf*cker.

 

[Mirroredshades]

Wow. This thread has gone waaaaaaaay off topic.

I have to say though that I am suprised that there are that many people that clicked yes. Even at 100k miles the NSX is still an excellent car. It becomes less "collectible" but no less of a sportscar.

The only 2002+ NSX that you will find for sale at $45K will be have title issues.

I crack up at how many threads are posted with buyers wanting a cheap NSX...Sure there will be distress sales for divorce, new babys, and new home buyers, but for the most part you only get what you pay for.

Want a Good Deal?

• Check the Web Everyday
• Have cash in the bank
• Be willing to travel within a 2000 mile radius
• Be willing to comprimise on choice of color

If you think too long and hard it will be gone...

[RON98]

1) I have driven TWO NSX's in my life. A 1995 (In 2003) and a 2002 (This year). The 1995 was "ok" and the 2002 accelerated and handled about as well as my 2004 S2000 that's SC'ed. I was very disappointed with the 1995 NSX, I don't know, maybe it was just me expecting to drive a car with more power. I just didn't feel like I was driving a "supercar". It felt more like driving a 996 911. The 2002 was more impressive. It looked better, handled better, accelerated better, and gave me a much more memorable experience. Enough so that I have considered purchasing one.
.

wow. you driven T W O nsxs..... thanks for putting them in CAPS, we might have MISSED THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE DRIVEN T W O NSX... what a WEALTH of expereince!!!!!!!!

I driven 60+ from NA, supercharger, turbo and EVERY SINGLE TIME i drive one, it still blows my mind how awesome these cars are.

I am going to stick with my price of $45k. I mean, with Nissan coming out with a $70k car with 480 hp and AWD that competes against a 911 Turbo, I believe that the price of performance has really dropped.
$45k for a 3 year old car with the NSX's specs in today's performance market is a fair price IMHO.

I think that a lot of people are riding on the name "NSX" to validate the price of the NSX being so high.

Maybe if the NSX was built by Porsche or Mercedes or Lotus or Jaguar I could understand why people believe that the car would hold it's value. But it's just a Honda. I feel the same about my S2000. It's a great car, but it's still a Honda. It's not going to have the prestige like a Porsche does. That's just the way it is.

your GOING to STICK to your price of 45K. like anyone is going to take your seriously if your going to STICK to that price.

Also you can IMHO all you want, 45 k is not a fair price. its a dreamer's fantacy price.

Yes Nissan is coming out with a 70K monster.... so what? you cant afford it. They can be coming up with a 50K monster and its still outside of your 45k loan.

I want to pay 10$ for a 5000SF house in Beverly Hills..... does that mean I can buy it?

I don't think that a lot of cars are worth that much in today's market.

I wouldn't buy a Ferrari 355 for $75,000, but hey... that's what people are asking for them

355 go for 75K for a reason. Its an exclusive sports car. Active suspension, great sounding exhaust, canyon monster. Worth 75K? I dont know. I got mine for less but its a great car.

just cause you dont have 75K doesn't mean they should be worth less.

the ONLY ones who are QUALIFIED TO say anything bad about a car is those who have owned and lived with it. I own a 355, i can qualified to bash it, i wont since its an AWESOME car. You dont own nsx, 355, viper, or any of the other cars you a low regard for.

Yes,you have a s2k. i had a couple too. i loved it. go to s2ki and share with them about how you feel. as for nsx, 355, SHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

market value is demand and supply, 355 is a starter Ferrari, its a jump from them to 360 and 430. there will ALWAYS be a demand for that car. Also the price keeps dreamers away. Most people dont SERIOUSLY dream about owning a Ferrari since its so far out of their realm of ability. Go on ferrarichat and cry about the prices of 355. While your there, give them a piece of your "mind" about the price of ENZOs also. They'll laugh you all the way back to grade school.

like FERRARI a 3 year old nsx or any NSX is a PRIVILEGE to own and has been one of my greatest pleasures in life. 03-04-05 for 45k, its not in your price range, we should ALL live with in our means. your out of luck.

there are 10000 people that will pay more than 45K for a 03 -04 nsx. so once very one of those 10000 people, me included, had their fun and had their way, you'll get your turn.

If you dont think its a honor to own this import exotic, please step aside and let a true enthusiast have a turn. Go save up for the R35 skyline.... at 70-80k its also out of your budget. your going to go to R35 forums and start flaming too about another Japanese icon should fit into your 45K budget?

I don't think that a lot of cars are worth that much in today's market.

yes, because its it outside of your budget. Im sure this is what all the under acheavers say about everything they are unwilling to work for.

seriously though, what's with the recent flood of people with their eye on the pie in the sky telling us how much our cars are worth? also not just that, starting TOTALLY STUPID threads that we actually respond seriously too??? why are we allowing people with out nsx, who will never have and never owned an nsx to stir the pot and telling us what is what.

these people aren't serious, thus we should not be dignifying the ridiculous posts with a serious answer.

[BladesNSX]

Wow, okay some of us are getting harsh here and are coming off as stereotypical condescending rich people.

So this guy Nasti has stubborn and slightly warped logic in terms of his desires alongside market supply and demand for various cars. He clearly knows what he wants; however has set a firm cap on what he is willing to spend. That is his prerogative. I see no need to call him a Broke MOFO.

For those that have purchased a newer NSX, no one is questioning your judgment or intellect in having done so. Granted Nastinupe may have come off that way; however, that is his opinion, on how he would spend his own money, regardless of whether or not he has enough to make such a purchase.

I would love to be able to afford a 2005 NSX; however, I have to be willing to sell my current NSX and be stuck with $1000 a month payments. Can I afford it? Yes; However, not without some sacrifices. Does that make ME a "broke MoFo" that has no right to pass judgement on what I personally think the NSX, Ferrari, etc. is worth?

If Nasti insists that he won't go over $45k for his would be future NSX then so be it. So what? Who cares? Who doesn't want a bargain. Some of us aren't willing wait, and so we put ourselves in debt, or make whatever sacrifices needed to achieve our goal of owning (blank) car. Other's are lucky and happen upon a great deal. Other's are rich and can purchase a brand new NSX; and then there's a minority, like Nasti, who will sit back and wait however long it takes for the market value to favor what they feel it's worth (or what they can afford). His mistake is attempting to justify WHY he believes the NSX is NOT worth more than $45. That can come off as a snuff in the face of those who HAVE spent more than $45k. When I purchased my NSX nearly 8 years ago, she was almost $40k since she came with HRE wheels. Some people thought I was stupid to buy a USED car for so much. That's their opinion. I drove an NSX before and fell in love. I knew what I was getting into and what I wanted.

Since the market says everything to the contrary of what Nasti is stating, it seems that this argument is moot. You will NOT find a good condition '02+ NSX for less than $45. Not now, and now for several years to come. I'm sure most of us will agree on this. So if one person thinks otherwise, let it be....no need to insult or chastise him.

 

[rhayward]

thank you ..i wanted to hear this and im sure ill ask a few more beofre i jump into one,,,,sure rebuilding is an option but not one i want to do at first...

i plan to shop at around 30-45 range to get a nsx with suspension, seats, rims, and some lip or minor bodykit...

hoping on biz to grow with the new year....

thank you for your comments...

Yes, they all blow up at 100k.

No, just kidding.
Some of the nicest examples I have ever seen have over 100k.
Many going over the 200 mark problem free these days. Some 300k

Some have been rebuilt, but mainly due to forced induction (and the hard driving that comes with it) Lack of Maint, Poor driving practices, or Just bad luck.........

Just my 2..........

 

[fullracehonda]

It's a great car, but it's still a Honda. It's not going to have the prestige like a Porsche does. That's just the way it is.

that is exactly why honda has the brand "acura" in north america and china, becaus people dont really want to buy a brand new 90k dollar sports car and a 13k dollar econo box brand new from the same dealer.

performance honda cars are bought and driven by people that understand the quality of the cars, and what they are(and a few are "omg nsx omg so tight omg")


you can somewhat compare nsx prices to civic and integra prices becaus they are all desired by somebody, take a bone stock, 1 owner, clean title white 92 honda civic cx with 30k miles, to some people thats not worth 1500 dollars, but to alot of people that kind of car would fetch 4000 dollars any day of the week, 5000 dollars by somebody who really wants the clean virgin low mile car to build on, heck take a black 99 civic ex coupe 5speed, that car will fetch 8-10k dollars, a fully loaded chevy cavalier/neon/escort of the same year might fetch 1/4 of the price.



how about a 1997 integra type r, to some people its a 97 integra, worth maybe 3k dollars, but salvage title theft recoveries fetch 11-13k and clean title low mileage will fetch 17-19k, and any integra type r with very very very low miles will get sold for more now than they will have sold for in their origional years (27-28k$$ 97,98,00,01) try doing that with a camaro or mustang



nsx is a rareity and is not some generic ford mustang gt and is not exactly the kind of car penny pinchers are usualy looking to buy for the great value, sure you can get and mod a different car to be faster etc but its still not the illusive nsx.



and "would you sell your nsx for 25k" is a very under informed question, some people would with earlier models and high miles/damage, but obviousley not a cherry 05.

none the less i might be buying a nsx, but my search criteria are different than most, the motor would be getting fully rebuilt from top to bottom, new clutch, possibly new stuff in tranny or just a new tranny, new suspension, new wheels, new brakes, new seats/interior, and if i could find one even cheaper becaus it has superficial body damage that would be a great excuse/extra money to spend on extensive exterior modifications like front end/sides/qtr's, if i was to spend 25k on one(which would be the max becaus im basicaly buying it and straight rebuilding the whole car, then it would have to have a PERFECT exterior in a choice color for me to spend that much money, and miles dont matter to me)



im sorry nsxprime, if i buy an nsx you guys are gonna have to live with my adhd self sometimes :tongue: or ban me

 

[mickeylex]

i plan to shop at around 30-45 range to get a nsx with suspension, seats, rims, and some lip or minor bodykit...

Your price range is reasonable and you'll find a clean 91-99 NSX in that range.

:biggrin:

This guy just dos not get that performance is NOT the #1 reason the NSX is purchased. Rarity is more costly than performance.
M3 is not in the same league as a NSX
Z06 is almost totally different market buyer

He has more chances of waiting until the new GTR depreciates to $45k than getting a 2005 NSX for $45k. So in every aspect he compares the NSX to exotics but than does not price it accordingly. Just like old M3's, Supra's, Rx7's, 911's they are not getting any cheaper either.

The NSX is DONE depreciating...... get over it. It only goes up from here, and if you don't think so.... than step aside theres a line behind you.

None of the members here would exchange the NSX any of the cars you mention at the same value or they would have. I would not trade my NSX for anything under $120k.

Hey Blades, no qualms with anything you said.

if he stated, my budget is 45k. then sure no problem. we all have a budget.

but his statement was

the car is not worth current market price and only worth 45k, ( to fit his budget ) and that we are ALL over paying and blah blah blah blah blah. No price on beauty but for 60K, its pretty good.

market price is just that. dictated by everyday people and what they want to pay for a car. guy got 45k for a 60+k car, good for him, no problem since there are another 10000 people who will pay more, he just wont get the car.

however, he didnt leave it at that. He is telling us a 60K car is worth 45K because he cant afford more. that i have a problem with.

same thing with the 355. market value, 70-90k. got 45K? no 355 for him. that's fine. but dont tell us the 355 is way over priced. crying about it wont change the MARKET value. I think enzos are stupid $. im not crying about it, im working hard and saving up.

wish we can see this guys see this guy as what he is. a cry baby. Really take serious someone who is sooooooo far detached from reality that he think a 05 is only worth 45k? Sooner we get these crazies who stir the pot, start silly posts telling us they are SMART and we are stupid ( so far i have yet to meet one stupid nsx owner. Everyone i have met are over acheavers who are very intelegent ), off the forum, the faster we'll return to the no street racing, no crying about prices, no nsx bashing, no I want pie in the sky but wont work for it prime that was here before.

im a fan of contraversy... as long as it make sense.

I happen to adore the Enzo:biggrin: The 355 there was one for $50K and true mileage unknown.lol The 360 can be had for 85-90 99/00 models though maybe not a maintance queen a real stepup from the 355.

Note the beautiful rear valence of the Modena and the new F430 replacement Dino side shot and the Enzo FXX without the white strips wow.

 

[BladesNSX]

I hear what you are saying Rob:wink:

Maybe we should point Nasti to This Thread for a better understanding of NSX prices and the Market in regards to supply and demand for a car that IS worth every penny.

 

[nastinupe1]

To BladesNSX: Thank you for a logical response.

To Skibanker: I'm amused that you assume that I can't afford a more expensive car simply because I don't want to pay over $45k for the NSX.

I thought that I explained my logic of not wanting to pay over $45k for the NSX. It has nothing to do with what I can or can't afford and everything to do with what I willing or not willing pay.

Furthermore... if I'm a broke mofo, then your mama is a cheap whore.

To everyone else: Only time will tell what will happen to the NSX. I believe that if Honda sucessfully makes another NSX, then the 1991-2005's will slowly continue to depreciate. I predict that the eariler models will go for $20k while the later models would go for right under $45k.

I have been watching the internet sales of NSX's for the past 3-4 months and many of the NSX's aren't selling. I'm looking at the same ones that I saw back in November still trying to sell.

It's just like the housing market, if people stop buying, then the prices will start to drop.

I believe that a lot of owners, especially 2002-2005's who bought their cars new and are anxious to purchase another "fix" will just dump their cars and not worry about a $10k difference. They may initially ask $54,000, but after not getting any bites, end up selling the car for $45,000 because they are ready to move on.

And realistically, we never know what the actually selling prices are anyway. We just see the asking prices. You never know what that individual who was asking $54,000 really accepted.

To Skibanker: I'm amused that you assume that I can't afford a more expensive car simply because I don't want to pay over $45k for the NSX.

I thought that I explained my logic of not wanting to pay over $45k for the NSX. It has nothing to do with what I can or can't afford and everything to do with what I willing or not willing pay.

Furthermore... if I'm a broke mofo, then your mama is a cheap whore.

To everyone else: Only time will tell what will happen to the NSX. I believe that if Honda sucessfully makes another NSX, then the 1991-2005's will slowly continue to depreciate. I predict that the eariler models will go for $20k while the later models would go for right under $45k.

I have been watching the internet sales of NSX's for the past 3-4 months and many of the NSX's aren't selling. I'm looking at the same ones that I saw back in November still trying to sell.

It's just like the housing market, if people stop buying, then the prices will start to drop.

I believe that a lot of owners, especially 2002-2005's who bought their cars new and are anxious to purchase another "fix" will just dump their cars and not worry about a $10k difference. They may initially ask $54,000, but after not getting any bites, end up selling the car for $45,000 because they are ready to move on.

And realistically, we never know what the actually selling prices are anyway. We just see the asking prices. You never know what that individual who was asking $54,000 really accepted.

Thank you for your future NSX price predictions, stranger. We welcome all opinions on NSX Prime.

Although it is *possible* that you have the finances to purchase a car costing more than $45k, your dogged determination to ignore every bit of factual data and prudent advice leads me to believe that your budget is as narrow as your intellect.

Happy Motoring!

I for one hope the 02+ NSX's never fall to the $45k level, so that when I'm ready to buy, I'll have a lot more beautiful choices from owners who actually have the class to preserve such a wonderful car.

And I agree with the person who stated that NSX's are done depreciating, for the most part.

I happen to adore the Enzo:biggrin: The 355 there was one for $50K and true mileage unknown.lol The 360 can be had for 85-90 99/00 models though maybe not a maintance queen a real stepup from the 355.

Note the beautiful rear valence of the Modena and the new F430 replacement Dino side shot and the Enzo FXX without the white strips wow.

lol im sure you can get a beat up anything for cheap. there are ALWAYS exceptions to the rules. a 355 with no history is risky. yes i have had my eye on the 360 for under 100k for a while but the once i have seen are... well undesirable/high milage/ no maintence record.

thanks Ski banker. this is exactly what i mean. its always people with no money/confidence that pound their chest saying "look at me look at me" the ones who know they do, they dont need to go seek someone else's approval. 45K is all you can afford. go trade in your s2k 4 10K+ get that 35K loan to purchase your non existant 2005 nsx.

stop acting like an idiot.

what is this, grade school? even in grade school we didnt call each other's mom's a cheap whore. this guy is a big ethug hun? hopefully he learn to keep your mouth shut in real life cause if he calls someone's mom a cheap whore face to face, he would get his light knocked out. We definitly dont need this grade school garbage here on prime.

fine you have the money you dont have the class to keep your mouth shut. really. no one cares about your opinion.

you dont own an nsx, you have driven TWO in your life time which speaks of the galactic wealth of nsx experience.

cry us a river sweet heart.

Happy motoring!!
