    2022 NSX Type S Registry

    The same thing happened with the very first 2017 NSX we delivered. Customer bought under their LLC, car was on the market 2 days later for $50k over MSRP. That guy ultimately got burned on that car if my memory serves me right. I'm sure this is only the first of a handful we will see this...

    2022 NSX Type S Registry

    Looked up the VIN on that one, looks like it was sold to an LLC that must have wanted to flip it. Just talked to the guys over at GAS Motorcars and that car has been sold already.

    How Do Dealerships Have NSX-S's for Sale

    We won't have final production figures until the last car rolls off the line. Clients with a later build dates can still change their order for a few more months but I would expect the initial estimates to be mostly accurate. I'd love to see total take rates for NC1 on colors and options as well...

    How Do Dealerships Have NSX-S's for Sale

    I don't think that's out of the question at all. I am waiting eagerly to see what happens now that a few have been delivered

    How Do Dealerships Have NSX-S's for Sale

    Any dealer principles that purchase the car for themselves cannot sell for 12 months or will face penalties from Acura. They are being pretty strict with these Type-S to prevent as much of that funny business as possible. I am interested to see when the first customer delivered car comes for...

    I’m an idiot — first launch, forgot I was in manual mode and crashed the rev limiter

    Straight from the NSX FAQ on Acura Info Center "How will using Launch Mode affect the lifespan of my NSX? Because the NSX’s three electric motors get the car moving before the clutch is fully engaged, launch mode in the NSX is less abusive to the powertrain than launch mode in conventional...

    Insurance???

    The windshield or glass coverage will vary depending on what state your are in. There are a handful of states that require the insurance company to offer you full glass coverage as an option. Most states have no such laws and the insurance companies may not even offer full replacement...

    Where are the $80,000-90,000 2017 NSXs?

    COVID has seen the sports and exotic car market hold steady or even increase in many cases. I certainly expected the market to be around $100k now with some rougher examples being cheaper but a clean car being $105-$110K for a 2017. At the end of the day I was making an educated guess based on...

    PPF and ceramic coating

    A local client of mine had the Ceramic Pro Kavaca film applied to his entire car. Film is great and Ceramic Pro also has some coatings the formulated to work best with that specific film as well. I've handwashed the car for him a few times when it has been in for service and it's super easy to...

    Aftermarket blind spot warning

    We experimented with a few different aftermarket blind spot systems at our dealership. We had hoped that if we found a good system that worked we would install it on some of our base model trims to help move those units. Unfortunately we had nothing but problems with any of the ones we tried and...

    Y vs Interwoven Painted

    Y-spoke wheels were the wheels recommended if you are planning on tracking the car. They have better brake cooling properties than the interwoven wheels as well as being lighter.
