    WTB NSX brief case

    Lucky me I bought the set on ebay (for less than my max bid) locally but no briefcase was/is available so please help me to avoid obsessing over this. Thanks! Gaymond

    Beige NSX seat on ebay! $100+ - only minutes left -

    I'm assuming it is ivory based on the # of years in storage. It's local and if it isn't in good shape I guess I can pay the guy's ebay fees. Definitely worth the money to me

    HSC was perfect, only needed more HP! Why?

    I always thought the HSC was gorgeous and I would probably be able to justify buying it new (but no adm's)

    Remind Me to Never Complain...

    My buddy that just bought a 328GTS is paying $3500 for an independent mechanic in Newport Beach to do the 30k service. Add $1k for a clutch since evreything is out and the price isn't too bad since the guy steam cleans the engine and makes everything look new before putting it back together...

    Buy house or nsx first?

    Just to be technically correct- You could only lose this amount in LTCP (and actually 15%) if you were all cash in, fully depreciated in your improvements and the land was virtually worthless (Inland Empire) :wink: Other than that leverage can make the total tax less than the above stated and...

    Buy house or nsx first?

    The place I sold in 3/06 actually shot up about 15-18% from 10/05-1/06 (very small market) so it made paying the taxes a no brainer. I did not want to do a partial 1031 nor did I want to do a full 1031. I was happy to walk away with the money to pay down my other mortgages (trust deeds if you...

    Buy house or nsx first?

    I agree that doing nothing sometimes is the best choice. I have had some clients perform 1031 exchanges when it was perfectly clear paying the tax was the better choice than the upleg property. I sold one of my homes earlier (Hancock Park adj. area) this year and decided to eat the taxes rather...

    Buy house or nsx first?

    You can still find good deals in any market. I have been offered an investment property @ $1.4 million ((2) side by side 6 unit properties in San Diego). It appraised at $2.1 in 2004. Is it a good deal? I'm getting the Schedule E to do analysis this week to find out. It's not as simple as it...

    Thinking about a Ferrari...think again

    I just picked it up last month after wanting one forever. I believe mine needs tuning as it doesn't run as strong as the NSX. It is a Steel Blue Metallic 2 owner (bought from orig owner) car with 30k miles & 6sp. Callaway only made about 51X cars from 1987-1991 and these things cost more than an...

    time for a high mileage update

    Car currently has 60,xxx. Bought it with 49k almost 7 years ago. Just had a repaint 2 months ago and it sits outside all the time. Looking forward to putting tons of (s)miles in the coming years and a repaint due to the driving

    Thinking about a Ferrari...think again

    I would own nothing but Lambos, Astons, and F cars if I could afford to have a full time mechanic on staff. Short of that I can't get myself to pull the trigger on a F-car (355 is my fave < 200k). Depending on my finances in the next 8 weeks I may buy a Countach but knowing full well that it is...

    Just got a new daily driver!

    Nice truck. Let me guess that black is your fave color. I remember a mag test article pitting that against a F348 and how many beer kegs each could hold :biggrin: Do those things have the Grand National motor?

    What Kind of HP can be Expected From This CTSC Setup?

    Worth every penny. 389 rwhp with autorotor and aem on a '91 with CT headers and RM DTM. I should have done it long ago.

    Crystal NSX's back from Oblivion

    I've been wanting one of those for years. Since I ordered and paid for it (paypal) I can assume that I will be getting one? Thanks for having such a good price I thought it would be several times that amount

    Unofficial weight reduction thread

    Anyone have info on the weight savings going to a lexan hatch

    I prefer the 5000s countach and am debating whether or not I could stomach the repairs. Fortunately I can not find any for sale in CA (hate the bumpers on the '89).
