The deed is finally done:) I just bought a 2003 Silverstone w/black interior NSX from Niello! I am in Sac now and will pick up the car tomorrow after it's clear bra treatment. The car is basically flawless with 6k miles on the odometer. Funny thing is, I still haven't driven it yet! It was late and I told them I would drive it in the morning. Anyways, I would like to thank everyone here who put up with my endless questions. I would especially like to thank my1stnsx for driving up to a dealership in Denver and taking time out of his busy schedule to help inspect a car for me. If you are reading this Thuan, I owe you big time for helping a stranger out. If you are ever in the Monterey, CA area, dinner is on me my friend. Pics will be posted in a day or two:)

I paid $61k+tax and license. I'd say it's a fair deal, but I wanted to pay a little more for a mint car.
 
SangLee24- Sounds like you got a great deal on a terrific car. Silver is a great choice on an NSX. I am also gald to see you opted for the clear bra-you will take great comfort in that purchase as you drive down the freeway and see stuff being kicked up by other cars. Drive safely and enjoy.

I think that's a lot better than a "fair" deal for a car with 6K miles. Congrats and welcome to the silverstone club. Although ski_banker is wrong silverstone/black is only the second best combo. :biggrin:
 
Yahoo! another 02+ enters the fold. Congrats good find, good miles and good deal:biggrin:
 
Thanks so much guys! I'm going to drive her for the 1st time at 10am! Going to Niello right now.:)
 
Sang,
Congrats on your new ride, I'm glad you got the color you wanted!!!:smile: It wasnt a problem at all. Definitely enjoy and have fun driving her home. Welcome to the club my friend!! You definitely got a great deal on your car!!:smile:
 
And in case you don't know, don't skip shift. Always go up in sequence... 1-2-3-4-5-6 and down in sequence if you can. I posted an Acura TSB on this before. Its hard on the synchros in general. There are a few exceptions. If you double clutch and rev match perfectly you should be OK otherwise don't do it. Lots of people here were skip shifting, going hard in 1 or 2, then skipping a gear and dropping into say 4 or 5. Its a no-no.
 
Congrats on getting the new car. It sounds like you got a great car at a good price. Clear bra is definately a good decision.
 
Just drove the car for the 1st time. Not bad at all:) Will report back later.

Thank you for posting that. Great advice! I can already tell that I will own this car for a very long time. Thanks to all of you for your wonderful comments.
