    Spotted this NSX for sale on AutoTrader.com. It's a 91 or 92 listed at "Lime Green" for the color.

    According to the FAQ, that color has also been available in Japan from the factory as a special order since '97.

    If its the one I saw in Scottsdale its a poor, excuse me piss poor excuse for a paint job assuming its the re-spray I saw.At the time he had a for sale sign in it that said 35,000.00.Very wishful thinking on his part.

    If you see a 602/480/ or 623 telephone exchange its probably the one (assuming the car has not moved or changed hands since it was about 3 months ago I saw it),and it did have those side skirts in the pic and was lowered.Very boogered and scary!!!

    I'd call that Kawasaki Green. It's great! Needs a green roof to complete the look.

    It looks like the color of the bumper does not match the color of the fender and hood.

    I know this car. It is a rebuilt car that was painted that green with a gruppe M copy front spoiler and side skirts. Although it looks as if the front spoiler has been taken off. At the time I saw the car (2 years ago) it had radius R4 wheels and to be honest the car looked OK, definite head turner. Not my color of choice though. Anyway I heard the car was sold into the u.s. market (it's from Vancouver BC) and he sold the wheels seperately.

    I like the idea of doing a re-paint in a Japan available only color, but I like my current color too much :-)

    I know this car too. I think it was originally sold out of Canada to someone in Portland about two years ago. Yes it has been rebuilt, maybe repaired by NSX R US?

    Question

    Yes, whats up w/ NSX-R-US.The blue and gold car w/ the bodywork they have listed in the market place look pretty good(in the pics).Has anyone seen there stuff live?Are they sufficiant for entry level NSX's?I am sure that point can be argued but is there salvage title stuff clean and decent upon finish(resale value put aside)?????
    Anyone???

    That's the Lime Green NSX from AZ.
    I saw it on Autotrader during my search for my NSX. It's really a bizarre color. And the top doesn't help either. That car has been on Autotrader for some time. He insists his price is FIRM. I'd prefer my all black one.

    I remember the lime green NSX from Vancouver had green roof and a salvaged title.

    Speaking of colors.....

    I like the purple of this NSX. I assume this is not a factory color, right?

    I would wager that this car still has Monaco Blue Pearl paint from the factory, but that the color reproduction in the photo is slightly off.
