VIN #19 is in showroom and can be yours for $225k

[RSO 34]

A dealer nearby has VIN #19 in the showroom and has contacted me to say they lowered their asking price from $260k to $225k. This car is ready to be handed over in case anyone wants to negotiate with the dealer. Please PM me for the direct contact of the seller if you are interested. I have no stake in this car and was contacted by the dealer after I inquired of the price and told him of my involvement with the NSXCA.

This is not a spot in line to wait for the allotment - this is a production car in stock and ready to be titled.

Good to see the pigs at Rallye Acura on Long Island have to wallow a bit from their stealership ways

 

[arista5]

They asked me to put my car in the dealership next to one of the new ones... guessing this is the car

 

[powdbyrice]

hope there are other options on that car other than the CF roof and upgraded seats for $225.

Not horrible if you really want to be one of the first and did not get on the list early enough...this car configured on line might be 195k so really just a 30k premium which is jump change for those truly able to afford a 200k sports car.

 

[Bricks and Bio]

The Cars.com listing has the MSRP at $197,500 so it must have lots of CF

 

[powdbyrice]

that's like a $50k mark up as listed. 178,500 as configured.

 

[docjohn]

uh...did you subtract 178500 from 225000...and get 50000

 

[powdbyrice]

Close enough.

 

[Bricks and Bio]

Rallye was originally asking more that $60K over sticker

Now the little piggies are at like $27,500 over

Here is a link to their listing

For 225k I would still rather own a Mclaren. I look at it this way, either prices will jump even higher after people get their hands on them and figure out what the car can do, or those dealer mark ups will soon be dealer incentives. From the looks of things, I see many incentives coming. Not because it isn't a great car, but because of the price range compared to faster cars in its class. I always see an awful amount of wheel spin in test videos for a super handling all wheel drive car on the track. Maybe it is just dummy drivers? But we shall see. It also looks really quick when launched. But like all small engines, it seems to run out of breath after 100 mph. I'd still LOVE to have one. But I'd rather buy a vacation home for that cost...

 

[Bricks and Bio]

I am unable to join the words vacation (time off) and home (always some work to do)

You have to leave the phone and the computer behind.:wink: That way, the shit storm will just wait for your return.

 

[Bricks and Bio]

Sorry, I meant work on and around the house, resulting in not much vacation

Gotcha. Homeownership sucks sometimes. Anyways, who is going to swoop down and grab this car here?

 

[Bricks and Bio]

I hope no one

It would be awesome if Rallye got no offers over sticker and also got docked an allocation for being a stealership (both events unlikely)

 

[powdbyrice]

I think MSRP will be it. the dealer mark up will go away very quickly. the first one in each store will get a premium, but after that, i dont see it lasting long.

the way acura is going now, they'll put the incentive on the leases.

 

[Jinks]

Yeah. Unfortunately Honda doesn't have the premium badge for the price. For example, I just bought a 2016 Hyundai Equus. The car was msrp of 70k and I drove it home for 54k. The reason? Because it is a new player to the luxury car brand and lacks the premium name. It isn't a pig either. It has 430 hp v8 and every single stinking option on the damn planet. It was a bargain! Kinda like how the old Nsx was. The new one, bargain it is not. Unfortunately. Once it gets down to the real msrp of 156,000 I might buy one.

 

[nsx_2k]

I'm a bit surprised this car is still at the dealership. I would have thought someone in or around that marketplace would have gobbled it quickly. I was certainly younger when the original came out and my memory may be off, but I don't remember the originals lingering around the dealership for very long when they first came out (naturally as it aged 93+ a number of them languished at dealerships). I thought the originals were purchased rather quickly.

 

[N Spec]

Wouldn't the first cars serve better for a testdrive for serious buyers than to sale quickly and not have real buyers be wary of buying a $155K+ car that have yet to drive?

Here's the thing, none of the other cars in that class are pulling a huge markup, other than stuff like the 911R and GT3RS. The 488 can pull a premium because of the Prancing Horse but right now you can buy a R8, Turbo S, 570S, and even a Huracan at MSRP. In the case of the 650S you can get discounts of multiple tens of thousands of dollars.

The pool is a lot deeper these days for supercars so big markups are not gonna be as easy to sell anymore. Not only that, but buyers have access to a lot more information these days. Now a buyer can easily search online all over the country for a car not being sold at a markup.

yep, i could agree with that...

that isn't the plan remember?

if the car is sitting at the dealership, it isn't as hot as it's supposed to be...

nothing i hate more than greed. i hope that car sits there until they sell it at a loss...

Now all the way down to MSRP of $197,500. When I saw the car during NSX Fiesta last year, I really liked it. However, the weight, silvery trims and uninspiring upholstery of the car really cooled off my desire for the car.

wow, they've really dropped the price by $62,500 in less than a month? looks like you're not the only one who's desire has cooled off...

They haven't dropped price down to msrp. They just have that listed and you need to email for the asking price.
