Who wants an Imola NSX?
- Thread starter Jetpilot3
- Start date
Gorgeous car. Love Imola :smile:
There is a dent on the driver rear panel from the grocery cart if you look carefully.
I would like this car at a few thousand less - with the damage, dents whatever, and only 30k service - no TB/WP - in my opinion it is way over priced. I don't believe he'll ever see anything in the 50s for this car. I know they're rare but these are "rare" times - read slim! That is a car that on the exterior is really nice - the interior probably isn't near as starteling as a yellow one would be but it takes a special person to want this car.
The guy talks about how much he babies the car and he's got dents in it??? Why didn't he fix em - paintless fix - you'd never have to explain it. He's deffering maitenance and repair to the new owner while asking top dollar - not happnin - not to be curt about it - but I don't think it will sell at what he's asking.
For me personally I could go for it if it had a black interior. It is what it is - and it's rare. I like the IMOLA color!

I can see this car going anywhere between 48k-55k. If he just fixed the minor issues, he would honestly get closer to his asking price. The nice thing is the paint hasn't been impacted with the dent. This color is difficult to match so that is a bonus. The timing belt should have been done last year as well. The imola interior in person is quite pleasant.
It's been for sale since 2008. In 2008, that price might have been attainable, but in 2010, he will likely have to take somewhere around $46-$47K for it to get it sold. Doesn't look like he is in a hurry to sell, so he might as well wait it out for on offer he likes.
btw, these pictures are old pictures from the a year or so back. They are not updated pictures.
I agree.
Here's the KBB.com current value based on condition.

Given that it's the rare Imola Orange color.....
An interesting note on KBB..... I compared a 2007 Porsche 911 Cabriolet with similar mileage and the value came out similar to a 2003 NSX. So does that mean the NSX holds its value better than any other mass produced car, including Porsche?

I do like the Orange, but with a black interior, that is a lot of Orange for me...
As Synth said earlier, it really is a color you have to see in person. When I saw pictures of my future NSX online, I thought the color was alright. After seeing it in person, it became a must have. I will admit that the interior took more time, minutes rather than seconds, to fall in love with. There is quite a bit of black on the inside that does a good job of mixing in with the orange.
Ditto. Must admit I wasn't sold at first on the interior, but I'm actually glad I didn't get black. For me, black interiors make the car feel dark and confined. I'm loving the orange/orange combo
Orange on orange looks great in person...I saw one years ago at night, pretty awesome combo
The other problem with those who have "passed judgment" on the orange interior- their opinion is based on pics online.. 99% of these shots are typically over-exposed.
Alright, since Tim dragged me into it. I love Orange/Orange and the other "over-the-top" colors too; Blue/Blue etc. Such limited production- one of 24 claimed but I didn't verify- of an already fairly limited production car. Through '02 and certainly from '02 on.
If I had 52K laying about I'd pull the trigger for sure. They didn't make many and they ain't making more. We're not talking Red/Tan or Black/Black here.
Right Neal?
Point taken, Curt.:smile:

It looks super clean. Wish I had that kind of money.
imola is overated, yellow/yellow and blue/blue are much more like imo
another Imola just popped up on eBay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Acura-NSX-T-2003-ACURA-NSX-T-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem3cacb121a9QQitemZ260595327401QQptZUSQ5fCarsQ5fTrucks
I don't care how rare this color this guy is dreaming on the price! 65k? - for an 03 - man it'll be interesting to see if he gets anywhere near his buy it now price. It does have low miles but, we'll see. Good luck to him; he'll need it. Nice car though.
^ For once, I agree with tbromly.

Glad your finally coming around Synth....lol:biggrin:
I paid less for my 05 with similar miles 10 months ago. Mine also included several tasteful mods, most of which I would have done myself. My was/is also an Acura certified used car.

I dont understand why people advertise their cars and only have crappy cell phone pics that dont even show the entire car in one pic...
