    I feel so bad right now ...

    Just got a notice from AAA that they are going to total the car and call me back about the replacement cost (they said between $47K and $57K). I am thinking of a 95 or 97 NSX-T now :-)

    I feel so bad right now ...

    Thanks, everybody, for your caring and touching responses. One of the reasons I enjoyed so much about NSX is this family of classy owners. Sorry that I couldn't provide more details about the accident before the police report comes out. I am very grateful that my good friend NSX saved my life...

    I feel so bad right now ...

    crashed my 95 NSX last weekend (please,please don't ask me any details). I am fine(walked away without even a bruise) but my NSX, with only 7k miles on it, will never be the same... BTW, the initial estimate from AAA (my insurance company) for repair is about $30-$35K.

    Recieved my NSX on Friday

    Was that you, Steve, Friday two o'clockish around Sorrento Valley area? I drove my NSX to work and was surprised to see another NSX in front of me.

    NSX Stuff

    The final bid for that cool looking plate frame will be over $50 on eBay. I bought the same thing directly from manufacturer, Universal Brass Inc., for $29.95 plus $6 S&H (solid brass in black with red NSX logo officially licensed from Honda/Acura). Their # is 253-939-8282. It looks nice on my...

    Alpine CD changer, velcro installation?

    I installed a Alpine S620 CD changer using Velcro (it took less than 5 min). No problem. A local car audio installer told me he would do the same.

    Are all NSX's California legal?

    Steve, Better follow NSXY's advise and use covered carrier. Mine was shipped open air (arranged and paid by seller - about $900 from Henderson, KY to SD). I was lucky nothing happened to the car during transport.

    Are all NSX's California legal?

    Steve, I just bought a 95 NSX and had it shipped from KY to San Diego. It arrived here 10 days ago and easily passed the smog check.

    Where did you guys get your NSX From

    That's right. It has 6K miles and is in like new condition. My only regret is that I didn't use covered carrier (seller was responsible and paying for the shipping but I should have paid him extra to use covered transportation). Fortunately nothing happened during transport except exterior got a...

As I said in my previous post I am currently paying $3000/yr to Farmers for my '95 NSX Well, just got a quote back from AAA: $2100/yr for TWO cars - the 95 NSX AND my wife's 95 Mercedes E320 (same coverage for both - 100/300/100/comp/coll $500 ded). I'll...

    Do I have to rebuild my drive way?

    Thanks everybody. I'll try angled approach pus plywood today and see if I can get around scraping. NSXY, yes, the car is as pristine as claimed except the exterior was filthy after open-air transportation from KY to SoCal. But Cush Acura did a great job cleaning and detailing. I found a box...

    Do I have to rebuild my drive way?

    My "new" 95 NSX arrived yesterday. Test drove it last night and was absolutely thrilled. But I had hard time to get it into my garage (which is below the street level) without rubbing the concrete. I wonder if other owners had the same problem and want to hear suggestions on how to solve this...

    What is the most necessary mod?

    Good idea NSXY. I'd like to get together with you and Joel someday. My NSX is to arrive in next two days. I don't know about the carrier. The only thing I know is that Cush Acura will receive and inspect the car upon arrival. It was all arranged and paid by the seller.

    What is the most necessary mod?

    Thanks NSXY. That's what I am going to do- enjoy my NSX-T and think about mod later. I live in La Jolla.

    What is the most necessary mod?

    Hi Joel, The Motor Trend extended warranty program does not cover NSX any more. So I am going to buy one referred by CarFax ($1900 for 5 year/60k miles). I'll call you to get Mark's phone #. Thank you.

    Fair price for a 94/95....3 or 4 years from now?

    I hope you were not using www.edmund.com for used NSX or any used car price for that matter. Their quote for NSX is about $10k below market. You probably can find a NSX (91-92) in your price range but with very high mileage and not so good condition. I was very lucky finding a 95 NSX-T (with...

    What is the most necessary mod?

    NSXY, Where did you go for the after market mod in San Diego area? Thanks!

    What is the most necessary mod?

    Yes, NSXY, I got the one (red/black)from KY. Thanks so much for the info. The seller (Barry at Tradition Auto Sales, very nice fellow) paid to have it inspected by the nearest Acura dealer who cinfirmed that the car is "in show-room condition". It also has a new set of Yoko tires. BTW, I paid...

    What is the most necessary mod?

    Just bought a '95 NSX-T with only 6k miles on it and everything original. (BTW, Thanks Chopsjazz,NSXY,Joel,Paul M,Ebanks,Biophase, and NSXTASY for your very much helpful responses). I want to hear what you think is the most worthwhile mod you have ever done for your NSX. Thanks.

    which car should I buy?

    Thanks so much for your comment, ChopsJazz. I will drive it very often but am definitely not a spirited driver and will probably track the car couple times just for experience. Who knows, I may change if I have the car :-) The top-off would be nice, as you alluded, especially in so Cal where I...

    which car should I buy?

    94' with less than 6K miles for low $50K from original owner. 0r 96' NSX-T with 35K miles for almost $60K from a Porsche dealer. This is my first sports car and I probably will drive it for 3 years and trade in for a new NSX or something else (e.g. a Porsche). Thanks.
