Oh man you freaked me out for a second. :smile: I saw the ad was for an 02 and I thought, "that has to be JetPilots old car, but it's in Hong Kong?!" It was the only one made that year. Then I looked and saw it actually actually doesn't have the Onyx interior.

I feel it will sell close to the $65k mark, especially with the low mileage and TB/WP replacement.

I agree, Cam. It appears to have a well-documented history.

Not a bad price if all is correct with it. Shall I pull the trigger? It comes to a decent amount of money here in Europe but I first have to drive mine into the next tree to get it. I like Imola orange like many here do but wait: the interior is a no-go, it should be black. :tongue:

Orange interior isn't too bad.... and you can also do some modifications it bothers you too much. Actually, all the orange is a direct swap out except for the leather on the sides of the console (which is one piece as you guys know).

This is where i disagree...

if it was an 05 YES i agree with that number, but being an 02 with some repaint I am not in the 65area. Yes it would be worth more than the same 02 in a different color but not in the 05 value. but thats just my opinion. and may explain why it took me almost two years to find my 05 with similar miles and i paid less.

...so it will sell for 65k to the guy who's not willing to wait the rest of his life to drive an orange NSX. :tongue:

repaint? well that then would change the pricing. Where does it state repaint or has someone taken a paint meter to it?

Thanks Alum4org and Brylek for the assistance. What this shows is that all of these cars hardly have any mileage on them and 4 of the 8 are being kept in storage without any miles being added in the last 2 years.

Rare birds indeed!
