Delighted to say that I'm now the proud owner of a 2017 Nouvelle Blue Pearl. I've loved the 1st Gens back in the 90s but was unable to get one in europe due to their scarcity. I now live in Phoenix, Arizona.
It's a full carbon interior and exterior package including ceramics, carbon roof and illuminated door sills!
Great to finally be a part of the NSX community here, hopefully I can upload some images! Thanks Mark

Nicely done Mark!

Can you believe it was a $6,000 up-charge for the NBP?! I think it's worth it!
 
nice combo! welcome
tell us more about the "hunt" and where you purchased from

Thank you :) Been a long journey, was searching for a yellow one but with my schedule I didn't have time to fly across the country. I kinda gave up looking for the perfect spec or perfect car and I'm one of those guys who needs to see the car in person as one dealers version of, 'in great condition' might vary considerably from my own I've noticed lol!
Ironically, I bought a near exact toy model in a store a week before the real car showed up in a local dealer, wild!

I have that same NBP toy model! I got a Casino White Pearl model after acquiring my NC1. Enjoy your new toy. It's wonderful car!
 
Congrats!

I too just bought a 2017 NVB and love it. Probably one of the best colors on this car although there really is no bad color.
 
Congrats as well, enjoy! Its definitely an interesting experience getting used to its many hybrid sounds!
 
IMO the best color on a car ever. It looks close to the Still Night Pearl that was available on the Sport model of Honda Accords and I always thought those look great, but this color for the NSX was even better, and on top of that it's on a car that looks so awesome in any color. I think this is one of the best looking cars available at any price. Congratulations
 
Agree mate, its an amazing design that is aging so well. I can only imagine being in the design meetings at NSX choosing those specific colors. I personally love the silver, Casino white and Indy yellow as well :)
 
First time I saw a NC1 was NB in our local imported car dealership called Auto King in 2017. Very very expensive by 2017.
Official Honda dealership finally has NC1 for sale months later but it is 130 white. See launch ceremony photo.
Now I finally get a Cassino White Pearl , 6 years I saw that NB one.
