The specs and what makes the fancy versions of the C8 go will be interesting. Unfortunately, you have to look at it and in my opinion it’s not an attractive car. The NSX is in a different league.
I still have a lift, etc. but will let the dealer do stuff for now. So easy with the dealer 15 min away - and a fun drive there and back!Having owned a C5 Z06 (modified to heck) and a CTS-V (modified to hell!) I enjoyed both, but did not enjoy the depreciation, although I never buy a car as an "investment".
Also, I did enjoy working on my own car(s), however, with the NSX I don't (no lift!).
The NSX is way ahead as far as build quality, GM stamps their stuff out like cookies.
There's a car out there with way way more miles than 80k with zero issues. I think extended warranty is a total waste of $ for a Honda product.Droptopp, Thanks for posting the warranty info, very useful..... I've never been a warranty guy, but this car makes me a bit nervous. Part of the reason I bought the car was for the "implied" reliability. My issue is that I can't make myself drive the car more. only 5K miles on my 3 year old 17'..... I will likely never get to 80K miles. My driving issue is more out of fear of parking than driving, accidents, breakdowns, etc.... But maybe if I have a warranty, then drive the snot out of it and forget about depreciation. Life has an expiration date, and every day, we get closer to it.... Can't drive it when you're dead>
Probably need to start another thread, but how many miles have you driven?? The highest I've seen is 80K miles....

I tend to agree with you here. Due to the low production numbers and steadily increasing positive press, I think the car will bottom around $100k and then start to slowly go back up. The sub-90k cars will be the basket cases: lots of short term owners (kids who really couldn't afford it), accident/salvage, heavily modded and rode hard, etc. This is feeling a lot like the NA2 progression.

first one ive seen under 100. lot of miles , seeing a lot more inventory lately
Just like every other performance car, the covid has caused a brief uptick in the resale prices of most cars. I haven’t seen many NSXs hit the Manhiem auctions yet, so I’m going to assume many people bought them off the lease.
But don’t worry, the prices will come down.
I didn't expect to see you in here after your predictions (wishes?) for the NC1 platform haven't come true. Keep up the good fight and maybe, just maybe, one day all of your chicken little prognostications will finally come true!
I'm with you, [MENTION=34364]nsx878[/MENTION]. And I *know* it's just a car, but the thing puts a smile on my face every time I see it, let alone get in the driver's seat and go out for a drive.
