Two 97's whats the best value

I don't get the rolling-your-eyes. Are you asking a rhetorical question? As an aside, doesn't <$40K seem awfully low for a clean 34k mile 97? If it is truly clean with no excuses, that's a lead pipe steal.
 
that one IN MD, has been for sale before, have a acura tech check it out, i was looking at it, but passed,

if its such a good buy then it would have been sold by now.

if everything checks out ,, you should get it fast.....

but i'm sure it has stories.......
 
With respect to the price, according to kelly blue book the 97 w/ 34k as a trade in would get 38.5k if in excellent condition and 36.5k in good condition. It may be in good conditiona and the seller does not want to trade it in for 36.5k if he can get a private party to buy it for 3k more.

Market values in Kelly Blue Book are wildly inaccurate for low-volume specialty cars like the NSX.

However, if that's what the seller is using to set his price, then go ahead and take advantage of him! :D

Could be true, but i have been looking for a 97+ for a year now and have seem a few, but never came across a clean title
with low miles for under 40k,, so looks like a really good deal..
so check it out ,,
 
I have been trying to work a deal on that '97 NSX-T with 104,000 miles but the guy takes days to call me back....

Both seem cheap. I am sure all the story has not been told as of yet.

Silverstone 97 with 104,000 miles very clean, asking $33900. Black 97 with tan, only 34000 miles looks clean $39800. Is the additional 6K worth 70,000 miles:rolleyes:

IF there are no hidden history behind the two car (=accurate inspection!), I woul buy the low mile one:

Assume, a NSX can be driven 230k miles (I won't include maintenace here since I assume that both are similar maintained).

You still have to drive (very simply way):

134'000 miles to drive for $33900 --> 3.95 miles/$

196'000 miles to drive for $39800 --> 4.92 miles/$


The same is applicable in case you sell the car to someone else in the future, before the 230k miles. Of course in cas he is also faced withy our dilemma and apply this simple calculation...
 
Comparison shopping...

Just a FYI... I bought a like-new '97 NSX-T with 6900 miles (that's not a typo) last month for $50K. In general, car prices here in the Pacific NW tend to be high. FWIW. :)
