[Bricks and Bio]

Finally found another Novelle Blue Pearl Type-S besides mine. It was listed at Montgomeryville Acura, PA. VIN 19UNC1B03NY000276!

Yay, black calipers!

I've got to admit...Indy Yellow Pearl with a Red interior just doesn't cut it for me unless you have really big feet, a red nose, make people laugh and love hamburgers. This is car #245.

Not commenting on the color scheme
Did they run out of CF cluster binnacles?
I thought the CF interior package came with a CF cluster binnacle

Yes they run out of CF cluster binnacles.

The Ronald theme is why I went ebony but with alcantara centers to get the subtle red stitching that matchy matches the red belts and calipers....

My positive spin is less reflected glare back up on the windshield....

My positive spin is less reflected glare back up on the windshield....

And less likely to have vibration/noise.
Really just a fun NSX trivia item

I have the production numbers and color breakdown for the 2017-2021 USDM cars, awaiting some final details. Interestingly enough, there are no 1/1 colors for specific MY's but I'm sure if you factor in interiors colors it changes things.

I know of at least one 1/1, because I own it!

For those that are interested, the list is up to 157 identified VINS. At this point, here's the breakdown with one caveat, there are a couple of cars where the description indicates just "Red" and not which red (Curva or Valencia). I've tried finding any active listings, cached pages of listing or VIN matching with no luck. I've noted them with a comment and until we get some kind of confirmation, I have temporarily marked it as Curva Red.

130R White	15​	9.6%​
Berlina Black	26​	16.6%​
Casino White Pearl	21​	13.4%​
Curva Red	14​	8.9%​
Gotham Gray Matte	18​	11.5%​
Indy Yellow Pearl	15​	9.6%​
Long Beach Blue Pearl	24​	15.3%​
Nouvelle Blue Pearl	4​	2.5%​
Thermal Orange Pearl	13​	8.3%​
Valencia Red Pearl	7​	4.5%​
total	157​	100.0%​

where did performance red come from?

double checking it now...the registration was "performance red"; but I found a listing on resale for Curva Red!

All fixed.
I should also point out that there is not enough information to indicate full leather versus Alcantara-inserts interior. Some are obvious such as Orchid but ebony and red are not.

I do find it kind of hilarious that the "very special and limited to only 50 units" gotham gray may turn out to be the most common Type-S color.

The only thing those 2 cars have in common is the name and the both have 4 wheels. The NC1 is a beast!

Max received a Gotham Gray, no roof tumor, no rear spoiler, Honda badged, RHD

Looking forward to him posting here about his experiences with the car

I am familiar with this car as it is at my local servicing Acura dealership. It is Curva Red. Dealer's asking $350k. I told them I was a buyer at MSRP.

I closely watched the videos of that event yesterday and I couldn't tell what is the car number nor the VIN. However, I did run in to a video showing 6 cars heading to Japan. Only one, the Long Beach Blue Pearl, could I figure out the car number. Here's the Video:

Cool sleuthing, the Gray one at the head of the line (no rear spoiler) could be the Max mobile

Kind of odd that they would give him a RHD version (going with the Honda badging is expectable)

 

[97NSXer]

no rear spoiler on the 3rd (last one) 130R either. Car looks better with a spoiler, IMHO.

I’m guessing that it is actually for him to use when he’s in Japan visiting Honda Race Engines , or in the UK at Red Bull Racing in Milton Keynes. I could be wrong - it could end up in the garage of his apartment building in Monaco.

JDM cars have no rear spoilers, presume it's an option. They also have chrome badges.

I'm pretty sure if it is a Honda badge in Japan, it has to be RHD per company rule and/or registration requirements. Though, I suppose they could have given him a "Euro" LHD Honda...

The first draft of the NSX Type S tracker is now complete and posted in the "NSX Prime Library". (https://www.nsxprime.com/resources/) Whew! I have data on 6 of the JDM cars but need to make room on the posting (only a 50K character limit) before it can be posted. The tables will be updated as data becomes available. Feel free to message me here or directly with information or error corrections. Enjoy
