Running costs

[crispin]

Hi,

Just joined forum, in the hunt for an NSX. I've read several threads, and am trying to gather info so I can estimate running costs. Here are my thoughts / questions

Insurance - if there are any specialist companies that exist and do limited miles / classic car policies I'd be interested to hear of your experiences

Routine maintenance - what sort of annual budget should I be thinking about? I guess I'd have the local Honda agent do the work (unless anyonw knows of a specialist in NSXs near Philadelphia....)

Tires - how many miles should a set get (reasonable road use only)? which manufacturers are prefered and what should a set cost?

Snap Ring / Windows - I'm hoping to keep out of the snap ring range, so shoud not be a worry for me. Ditto for windows

Mileage - I'm not that bothered, use will be low so this is not going to be an issue. Depreciation will be, but I guess that is part of the deal with expensive car toys, and at least NSX seems to be at the low end.

Any other major items which I should be thinking about?

A lot of questions, I know... any guidance will be appreciated!

thanks

Cris

I'd say almost none.

If you drive it rarely....not much is going to break. Tires run out less then 10K miles.

Insurance was cheap for me.

Depressiation is almost non-existant for the NSX.
