Wow, way to profit off your fellow forum members, for doing absolutely nothing. If you don't want the car, that's fine. No need to gouge the same people who likely help you out around here. And 10 NSXs for one dealer? I'd be shocked if they get more than 3.

I took a look at this car. Greasy salesman at Sherwood Ford is giving me the run around every time I asked for a car report. He said they would sell it for 50,000 if someone walked in. Otherwise they are putting it back on eBay for 69k. That's ridiculous. The car was thoroughly destroyed. I...

Hugh, I'm confused- how did you have a folder full of receipts, etc, when nothing was ever actually done on the car? Or are you implying that shops were charging for parts and labour they never actually did? That seems a little... Unlikely, to say the least. Sure, if it's Joe Schmoe's shop, I...

This is a really stupid reply. There is no way the GTR is faster than the NSX 2.0. Although the GTR launches quite well, I think the NSX, with the electric motors, will give a ridiculously fast 0-60. I'm willing to bet it will beat the GTR. Those electric motors will thrust the NSX forward...

The original NSX-R has been legally available for import in Canada since 2006/7ish. I've yet to see one or hear of one being here. I don't think people are willing to pay that much for them, when for the same price you can get something with twice the power, modern creature comforts along with...

JD, I whole heartedly agree with you. Maybe you and I are out to lunch, but I would FAR rather pay a premium price for a completely original NSX, then one that has been modified. Don't get me wrong- I do love tinkering with my cars, however, I would far rather pay for a pristine, unmodified...

That's funny, because I'm the opposite way around. Although Porsches are nice cars, they do little for me. Maybe it's because there are so many of them around. The odd time I do see an NSX, regardless of year, I'm always mesmerized.

JD- I will concede my original statement- you do bring up some very valid points. I by no means intended to sound rude, although RE-reading my original statements, I can see what you mean. I wouldn't call it bad judgement having to pay X dollars over MSRP- the demand for the car existed and like...

No, fair enough. I've been lurking Prime for some time now. The reason I hadn't bought an NSX in the past was more to do with age, than anything. Now I'm in a position to move forward, however, I'm looking for the right one, and they don't come up everyday. I've had seat time behind the wheel of...

Well I figured he would post pictures of the house a few members were able to find on Google Earth. If it is gated, I have a hard time believing he'd be able to convince the owner to allow him to park 3 cars on his property. But yes, the bagel-in-the-photo is a glorious idea! I'm eagerly...

No where did I ever say 61k is chump change. It was in fact a lot of money back in 1991. In all honesty, I don't understand why you're getting so upset about someone elses opinion. Do I think the NSX was ever a super car? No. I never asked you to agree with me. Andt that doesn't mean it's not...

I find it incredibly creepy that you keep inviting members to "your house". Are you a serial killer per chance? I've heard of stories like this happening. Rather then inviting random men over to your place for the weekend, why don't you do everyone a favor and POST pictures of said NSXs and S500...

And for some odd reason, probably the last time he'll grace these boards again :biggrin:

Plus the ridiculous dealership markups... Nonetheless, that is another reason why I see this car pushing 500-600 hp at the very most. Honda wants to keep a reasonable price on this car. I think the first wave of NSXs will go for 150-160k after dealer markups, then scale back to about 120-125k...

And weighs like one too. The GTR is close to 4000 pounds. Even if the new NSX puts out identical power numbers, if it can weigh 300-350 pounds less, along with torque vectoring, using a V6 twin turbo setup like the GTR (plus electric motors), it should set some good numbers. Hyper car (Porsche...
