Never say never!!! Someone offers you $250,000, you'd be crazy not to sell. You'd be able to buy another one, and have $$$ left over for yet another vintage toy!!!

Highly doubtful since only a handful change hands over 2-3 yrs & most of those are ones with neglect or problems/major repairs done.
And buy what, GT2? Too reminiscent of my 911 Turbo. The only way I'd sell it was if I desperately needed the money or it drastically changed my life.
New owner of Zanardi #47 here. Car is amazing. Seller was fabulous and kept it in top condition.
Car is 100% stock and near mint condition. Looks 3 yrs old, if that. Only approx 31k miles.
Have had it looked over top to bottom by 2 Amelia Island Concours winning restoration experts.
They had it up on a lift, evaluated entire car and underside, took >50 paint meter readings - ZERO evidence of any paint or bodywork fortunately.
Truly a lucky find. All it needed was a new turn signal bulb.
Planning on some paint correction and clear bra then getting it out.

Granted, a very, very special and unique example.
Sheer insanity. I wonder if this, if it holds up, will raise values for all.
Congrats! Would love to see pictures of her and welcome to the club!
If you throw out the $1.2M charity auction for the first NC1 out, what is the most expensive NSX (NA1, NA2, NC1) ever sold in the US? Could the BaT auction for Zanardi #51 end up as the most expensive NSX ever sold in the US to date? I know a couple NA1-Rs were recently imported and the NC1 tops out a little over $200k.
Sold for $277,017
This is the highest sale price to date for any North-American market NSX (I don't track non-NA market NSXs due to lack of data)
Does your tracker include the NC1? Or is it is only NA1/NA2?
You rang.............? :smile:

You don’t have a clone, all of the zanardi’s are a clone of your zanardi prototype. And that is fact!
Here's my NC1 version: http://www.nsxprime.com/forum/showthread.php/209529-Gen2-NSX-Current-Market-Analysis
Even including the NC1 sales (but not including the $1.2 million dollar sale for charity), the Zanardi sale is still the highest sale price for an NA market NSX.

Until one of the 150 na2 Nsxr’s are their way to North America. Then we will see a 300-500k gen 1 nsx in North America.
The Zanardi isn't the rarest NSX variant - that award goes to the '97- '01 Type S Zero - around 31 examples were produced iirc.

Does anyone know the paint code for Zanardi wheels ? - My Type S has the same wheels and I can't find the definitive paint code - several codes have been suggested over the years, but I can't find anything from Acura or Honda stating the paint code.
Thanks in advance.

I believe it is Washi Grey (Grey Metallic) however I've never seen a paint code for it.
