Category:Zanardi VINs

This Wiki Page is provided to summarize any VINs in the NSX Registry that are 1999 Zanardi models. More information on Zanardi models can be found here including the fact that the Zanardi NSXs were only produced for the US market and each of them has an individually numbered and signed plaque on the engine firewall. All were red/black coupes w/the 3.2 liter 6speed manual. They came with a lighter rear spoiler, single pane rear glass, lighter battery, lightweight BBS alloy wheels, and a manual rack-and-pinion steering system. These changes resulted in a 149 lb weight reduction over the NSX-T. Each Zanardi has a race tuned suspension, a titanium shift knob, red-stitched interior trim w/suede like seating surfaces, and aluminum mesh intake covers.

Information on the Zanardi VINs was made easier through previous efforts by The Kid (and others) to maintain an informal "Zanardi Registry" thread on Prime. In various sources, it says that there were 50 Zanardi NSXs produced but according to Ben's research from US Honda in that thread, there were 51 VINs identified as Zanardi models and according to the thread itself there were 52 (0 to 51). Part of the discrepancy may be in the fact that according to this source, Alex Zanardi was given Zanardi #01 and it was converted to a European VIN. Zanardi #00 was believed to be a press car. So, if those are not counted, then there technically are 50 US Zanardi NSXs.
