LOL... its going to be the longest two weeks of your life... the only thing I had while waiting for mine was this forum. And I kept buying stuff... before I had the car... I bought pedals, short shift kit, exhaust system, supercharger, shifter knob and stalk (type R), and I don't even know what else. Kind of nuts to buy all this stuff before receiving a car... LOL.. but it was my fix... :smile:
Thanks guys. Listed price was $77,900 and I got it for $75k. It's from a personal seller in GA. Yes, it was listed on eBay, but I feel that it "cheapens" the experience to say "I bought it off of ebay"... eBay was really just an avenue of advertising. I found the ad and called, and I placed the bid after we came to agreement. Unfortunately, the seller used a "brokerage" to sell the vehicle, so instead of just sending the guy a check for $75k and having him ship the car, now I've got to jump through hoops...
The car...
2005 Long Beach Pearl Blue NSX
Blue Leather Interior
3600 miles
B&B Tri-flow exhaust
#50 of 249 made in 05'
originally sold in CA, shipped (enclosed) to GA when he moved.
Garage kept
Never driven in rain
No accidents
Performance mods will be the first to be done. Won't be a "daily driver", but will get driven "enough". I work from home with my wife, so this will be my "Vegas car" (we just got hers last week). We go to Vegas usually a couple of times a month (3 hour drive).

sure sounds like it. if so did you get his custom wheels as well? very clean car congrats.:biggrin:
Apparently it IS Bobolinski's car :biggrin: ...
I did my research, but never saw it on here before . Apparently he had a chip on the hood :frown: ? I did also buy the wheels, which I didn't know were custom... so I'm glad I did.
When he had it listed on here he mentioned some other mods that he did not mention before. Not a big deal, cause he either put it back to stock or their mods that I don't mind (i.e. lowing 1.25").

Its time to drop off your car to Factor X in las vegas and have your car turbocharge by mikey!! You can have your choice of the FX400 kit which will have your car at 400 to the wheels or go all out and get the FX500 and have it over 500 plus to the wheels, its your choice. All his work is custom to fit your needs!!!
Those rims are apparently LEGENDARY. Congrats on that rare piece of work
I knew I knew that NSX from somewhere. Here is a link for some close-ups of the rims. Very nice and BIG!

Just loaded her on transport. Bob enjoy her as I did.
That is one ginormous truck. I bet the NSX can fit underneath that monster!
Congratulations! (And don't forget to join the NSX Club of America!)

Congrats! I love LB Blue Pearl - was my first choice for a while actually. I'm amazed you got the car so quickly. Some of those transport companies can take weeks.
Ask the other Vegas / SoCal members, but I remember one thread about a guy that did that trip once, got caught in a windstorm, and his whole front end was peppered with debris. Might want to consider a clearbra if you're gonna make that trip often.

Hahaha thnx. Yeah the truck is to pull about 15,000 lbs worth of toys through the sand
. The truck has an 8" lift on 38" tires. The X won't fit under mine, but I've got a friend who's truck is a little bigger and I thought about parking under it for a couple of quick shots... Ski_Banker said:
That's funny... Silverstone was my color of choice for years, then right before I started SERIOUSLY looking, I changed to LBBP.
I am actually going to schedule a clear bra next week. We took the wifes SL550 to vegas a few weeks ago and the front is pretty torn up just from regular driving :frown: . We didn't hit any wind storms or anything...
