Would you guys get a 99 White NSX for $45k?, Mint condition, clean and great lookin!

I already have plenty of cars in my stable with a soon to be arriving P-car soon but I saw a car over the weekend that I'm very tempted to get.....

Always loved NSX's and I actually like the older body style models (96+ NSX-T) instead of the newer 02+ headlights.

Anyways this one is a great looking example with no electrical or crazy body mods on it so for the most part stock. Has some Comptech goodies such as springs, exhaust and headers but interior is fully stock.

Just under 54k miles and the front tires are brand new, rears are totally shot and will need new ones immediately.

He's asking $45k.....do you guys think that is a fair price?



thanks
rick

Yes. 97-01 NSX FTMFW. BTW - I love your cars. I hate you.

HELL YES!!!

Close to the 41K on www.kbb.com. Good luck.

I know what KBB is but I am also aware the NSX does not really follow KBB values...........

I was thinking about offering him something in the 42k range but just seeing what you guys thought about the asking price.


rick

I think the asking price is reasonable for that year with that many miles. Funny because I was just looking at the For Sale section over on Prime.

I would do a little more looking into another NSX, my dad has been searching around and has found some for mid 20s with about 50k miles on it. Very nice cars they are... But he is waiting for his cayman S, then its the NSX in his sights...

I think its a fair price! Du et!

Dude... definately go for it! I was looking at a '91 NSX last year... and they were asking $38,500 for it... and it was 3 owner, 24k miles though and in perfect condition...

on exotics and collector cars, KBB has no bearing whatsoever... the kbb on the '91 was $22k... and trust me... I was one of 3 people looking at the NSX... sadly, someone snagged it before me

45 is a fair price for the car...


there is a 98 black for only 43K


btw, NSX don't go at BB value

My 96 Black NSX will be up for sale shortle

GO FOR IT!!!!

Its the pimp of all pimp Hondas.

thanks guys, made an offer so we'll see - I really don't need another car but this one is too sexy to pass up


rick

I would.

Well ? Did did he accepted your offer ?

if i had moola hell yes.

if I had the money.

I'll pass

I think I'd go for a used Elise, and put the extra $15k all over the bare metal floors.

Love the NSXs. If you have the means, go for it.

Pictures of the car btw?

If you would like to drive anywhere besides to/from the track, NSX > Elise. If you've driven both, you'll know what I mean. Elise is an amazing car when it comes to braking, handling, etc. However, the NSX has many things the Elise doesn't, a well-built motor instead of something out of a Celica GT-S, an actual interior rather than seats and a shift boot, storage space for more than 1 loaf of bread, tires that last more than 5k miles and can be driven in the rain, and seats that don't feel like you're sitting on bare fiberglass (which you practically are in the Elise).

Check out the FS threads in NSXPrime. There you will get a sense of the cars current value.

Sounds like an ok deal if you can lower the price closer to 42k

Thanks for the comments, looking on PRIME is a good idea, I will head over there to take a peek

Guys, I'm not interested in the Elise or any other exotic type car - the only reason I'm looking at an NSX is because I love the shape and character of the car. I'm not going to track any of my cars so it's mainly for enjoying it on canyon roads and simply modding them for fun. Before I bought my 3rd s2000, I drove about 4 Elise's in various trim levels. Impressive car but not for $45k+ and the safety factor really steered me away from these cars.

Elise is a nothing more than a legal go-kart and I don't like it's looks nor the engine sound.

I made an offer so he wants to think about it which is fine with me - no rush on my part........


Rick

NSX = Overpriced

For $45k I'd get a BMW 335 Coupe.
