Re: White 02-05
Ad says it's still on the car. Looks pretty good in pics is it salvage or something?

Re: White 02-05
I believe the vehicle you are referring to was RyanITV's previous car. 2005, #170. It was fully converted to an NSX-R theme and sold to Sung in California, who promptly removed the NSX-R wheels, supercharger, and many of the other high priced items. Last i heard, the car wasn't in the best shape. That car has a black top though...

Re: White 02-05
White cars are VERY RARE (one of the fun facts I like to share with other car guys) so I asked one of our local nsxprime members to assist me with this engine plaque! :biggrin:
It reads: "1 of only 4 built for 2004" hehe

Re: White 02-05
thanks Ben, you are da man! I wish we can change the title of this thread to something more fitting......
Did you guys know the GPW s2000 CR (only made in 2008) has only 8 cars total! That makes it just as rare as the NSX of this color! :biggrin:

Interesting, as of 11/2009, it's still in Hawaii. I guess maybe things don't update as quickly sometime.

Re: White 02-05
What is the Hong Kong guy gonna do with the car? RHD in HK. It seems to have made more sense if the HK guy gets one in Japan instead. I would.

Re: White 02-05
That's exactly what I thought. My buddy in Hong Kong told me that they can't even drive it legally in HK. The best they can do is to put a dealer plate on it and sit it in a showroom. The other possibility is that they'll eventually import it into China, which is a LHD country.
I just ran an autocheck on the VIN, and it just had a title change on 11/04/09. The seller updated it as sold on prime on 11/15/09.

Re: White 02-05
I spoke with the Hawaii owner of this car numerous times and I almost bought this car when I was on the search for my GPW ~ it's a sexy car that's bone stock but I just wasn't sure about the camel interior.
So one less GPW on the open market now that's it out of US jurisdiction! :tongue:
I was just thinking the other day how bad ass it would be to drive my NSX in China or HK - for those who have not traveled to Asia, most nice cars do not come out til late at night.
In Taiwan for example the streets are clogged with traffic and scooters and any of them could side-swipe you at any moment leaving you with very little recourse. My buddy has one of the few s2000's he imported (costed him over $70k USD to bring the car there after taxes) and we attracted more attention than most cars. While I was in Beijing I saw ZERO nice cars during the day and even if I had a nice car I would not bring it out. However at night, saw a few Ferrari's zooming around town by these old big shots. Keep in mind a Ferrari of any year commands around $300-400k USD minimum after taxes there

Re: White 02-05
My wife and I were relocated to Taipei for two years. NSX will "wow" people both day or night, but if you really bring it out among those "night racing club" guys, they'll politely say "nice car" and leave you on the curbside with pity. There are only 3 to 4 exotic car clubs in Taiwan, and at least two of them don't accept cars that have fewer than 500hp. They can bring out 80 cars a night and most of them are "real European exotics". My 08 E60 M5 was considered an entry-level car there. I heard the HK exotic car clubs are even more snobby.
For a NSX you'll need to find the right group of people to appreciate it. There is a "Honda JDM club" in Taiwan, and they have several NSXs and about 20 S2Ks. They have regular club events you can join. They also accept other JDM cars like your IS-F, so I am sure they'll love you. The nicest thing about it is you can drive with people of similar cars and interests. Here's a video: (http://videoportal.aol.tw/video-detail/taiwan-honda-jdm-club/1846060814/?icid=VIDURV02)

Re: White 02-05
thanks for chiming in! I never lived in Taiwan before so I was not aware of those things...
So when you say "exotic Euro" are we talking Lambo/F-car or like BMW/Mercedes? My buddy in HK has a car porter that takes care of his EVO, Skyline R34 and the 997 Turbo but never heard of clubs being snobby. But I guess in any culture you got snobby groups just like here in the US

Re: White 02-05
Guess who bought it? Its the same gentleman that bought my rare 2002 Imola Orange Pearl/Onyx and he's a smart man. He bought mine without any negotiation so I presume the ex-owner in Hawaii got that same deal as well. He sent me an e-mail update showing me pics of the Imola and mentioned he'd just bought this White NSX.
He knows which NSX's are rare and buying them up.:wink: I know he already owns a NA1 Type R, Mugen Civic RR, my ex-Imola and now this White/Tan...
