Stupid question?

[rayb3na_]

ok guys this might be a really stupid question hence why im posting it here.. where did the people that own nsx's here buy there car? ive always wondered.. cos ive only ever seen second hand ones go around carsale mainly auto.. shame.. whats the story behind the nsx? im guessing it wasnt aus delivered so did we get a few imported here and that was it? can we import them now etc. someone educate me =]

They were Aus-delivered. At $243000 a pop in 1997 and $245 in 2002 for the base models, who could afford them!?

Even now, they are selling in the 2nd hand market for stupid prices. In the US, used NSXs are very very cheap. You can get a used 2000 model for US$45-50k

You don't understand. Over here in Australia, used car prices are inflated. You can buy an E36 M3 in the UK (which has freaking high car tax and import duties) used for 8000 pounds. Over here, they are still AU$45000. Hence, the local price of used NSX are inflated too and not many owners are able to find someone willing to buy them.

There was a review on the NSX's on BMI DVD's. They proved Honda's claims, that an NSX engine actually makes more power when the engine is older, than when it is brand new.

Rather get a Auto one, and convert it to Manual. I reakon it's worth the extra 10K, as the engine won't be AS abused.

The NSX shell, is as I recall, full Aluminium... so no need to worry about rust.

the motors are best at 60-70,000kms from what that video stated
