Hooray for the all-powerful ECU! It sees all and knows all. prym8, thanks for the link to Will's photos of the road trip. It's a beautiful sight, especially where the NSXs are all lined up together.

I just found this old thread, and it certainly answered some questions about long-term storage. But what a sad story. And I can't help wondering if the car went back to the original owner to sit in the dirt and disintegrate.

That is a lot more than 2 cents, thank you all! Clearly there is a big difference between an unplanned storage (like if the owner dies and no one thinks about the car), and a carefully planned storage.

Hi Southwest Region, I am a newbie, so please bear with my dopey questions here. I am looking into buying a 91, and have found an overwhelming amount of info here on the good, the bad, and the things to look out for. One thing I am wondering about is altitude. I spend about half the year at...

I have not yet found a car, so this question is very premature. But the first NSX I experienced (and the reason for my obsession) was my neighbor's red 1991. He took good care of it and drove it on weekends for a few years, but then he got sick and the car sat in the garage for at least 5 years...

Haha, yes it probably read like a troll comment, since I was feeling quite grumpy with you-know-who. I must say, I have been reading around the different threads and the amount of information here is VAST!!! It may take me MONTHS to read it but that's OK because it is so interesting! - - -...

Hi docjohn, thank you very much for your comments. If I can find a car locally I will definitely bring it in for a pre purchase inspection to get some assurance that previous work was done right and there isn't something big looming.

Thanks usafdarkhorse, your comments are much appreciated. The fact that these cars are still on the road, in great shape, and in demand pretty much negates the reliability nonsense. Since they have been around for so long, all the issues and solutions have been identified. My job right now is to...

Thanks everyone for your comments. Yes, you were half right - "certain people" includes a husband, but also a son-in-law. I don't think either one of them knows a thing about these cars. Anyway I have been reading about the snap ring issue. Looks like I first need to get the transmission...

I have wanted a 1991 for so long that I am obsessed, and I finally have the means to buy one. Unfortunately, certain people keep telling me that they (either the 91s or the NSXs or both) are problematic, and I should get something "reliable."
