You're telling me you got two NSXs, each at half price? Baloney.

$75K rebate on each of them? Nope, not happening. $30K is the supported factory incentive on remaining SELECT 2017s (some ended on Nov 30) and there's no way they added another $45K on the hood from the dealer. I'll believe it when you scan your paperwork (names redacted, of course).....

Trolls troll, guys. You ought to know him by now.

If that makes a new NSX under 100K out the door, let me know. I will buy one!

Yea, that's a big problem for the NSX. People don't associate Acura's with a $150k-$200k price tag, regardless of how well the car is. It doesn't have a history and reputation like a Ford GT either. It's as though the NSX is too nice for the Acura brand. The whole brand needs to be much better IMO before the NSX will do well sales wise. Over the past decade or 2, Acura has declined too much.

In case anyone missed it, The Grand Tour debuted last Friday with May driving an NSX.

Note they really didn't use the nsx for sound clips.
