I live in Irvine and would be happy to check out the car for you. I'm no mechanic, but I'm pretty picky and can catch obvious problems.
I saw your post on the NSX list and you mentioned that the car is in Westminster. Could you verify that? I happen to work in Fountain Valley which is about a couple of miles from Westminster.
Better yet, if the guy is willing to drive his car to NSXCA dinner on Wednesday (2/13)night at 6:30, we are going to have over 20 pairs of eyes that can help you check out the car. It is at NSX modified in Huntington Beach, which is also a few miles from Westminster.
Private me if you like.
