    Only 349 Type S left

    Very sorry to hear! What color was your Type S? Was it 130R or Casino White like your previous NSX?

    Hyperblack/Dark Chrome Acura Emblems

    SOS sells carbon fiber black emblems. I would recommend those.

    NC1 battery cooling?

    It's been awfully hot recently, with temps in the 110F +. I am wondering what type of battery cooling technology there is for the NC1, when it is parked, and when driving. Fully electric vehicles like Tesla, Bolt, have liquid cooled systems for the batteries. The Nissan Leaf has air cooled...

    NC1 alignment

    Whenever you're in town hit me up. I'd love to take my NC1 out for a meet and greet.

    Driving my NSX to work

    I discount superficial comments from superficial people in wealthy areas like Beverly Hills and perhaps where you live. Those people live in a bubble and only comment on cars from a snobbish point of view. What's more interesting and honest for me is the feedback from the average person off...

    Cant decide... Older NSX vs. New Nsx Owner comparisons?

    As a car lover and engineering geek, I drooled over this amazing recent video about the NC1 and its powerplant: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jtCcnrO2Rzs Honda is known for building the very best engines in the entire world. This crown jewel and heartbeat of the NC1, the Cosworth engine...

    Extended warranties don't cover routine maintenance. Valve adjustment is recommended at 120,000km, or 75k miles. At this rate, it will be 20 years before I require a valve adjustment given how I drive my NC1. If I had more time to drive it, sure I'd have to pay more out of pocket, but such is...

    Not sure if nsxsupra will answer, but here is a post from a NC1 owner who has an Aventador S, 458, and NC1 This owner added it a while ago, is frequently on the owner's group, and constantly raves about the NC1. I think we all get that kind of "yup, you know" type of vibe from each other...

    Driving my NSX to work

    Amen. I can't believe the amount of attention and positive feedback I get in my NC1. Even at cars and coffee next to other super cars. :biggrin:

    Maintenance costs and reliability

    Agreed, my coverage is less than $1800 for $150k stated value coverage with no mileage limitations, full liability, and uninsured / underinsured coverage. This car is a Honda...I can't imagine a company not insuring this car...they must be out of their minds.

    I love Casino White. It is stunning every day and twice on Sunday. However, I also love blue. So I may snag a second NC1 in blue one of those days. I seem to love the white and blue combo. :) PS - you might find yourself with heavy competition to get a NC1 at a good deal. Some current NC1...

    I think the smart money is either that, or a NC1 at a low price now for the next few years. These cars are incredible and the value will go up. People just have no idea what they are getting for the money. I will be keeping an eye out for a steal on a second NC1 over the next few years and...

    I'm not sure where you are getting NC1 = McLaren maintenance costs from. They are definitely not the same. One is a Honda, the other is...British. I shopped McLaren before deciding on the NC1. McLaren oil change = $1k or more annually. NC1 = $300 - $400, and can be done at home if you have the...

    ***STICKY*** Gen1 NSX Current Market Analysis

    In our private NC1 owner's group there are quite a few first time NSX buyers for the NC1, and quite many previous owners like me. We chatted about the C8, marvel at the hype. We love all cars, but we especially love the NC1 because we had to go seek it out to buy it. We weren't cross shopping...
