Honda NSX

[Dynamic Turtle]

Any previous owners here? They appear to be extremely thin on the ground in the UK and probably a bit too exotic, but interested to hear thought nonetheless.

I'd love one. I thought they were uber rare, but at Japfest earlier this year there was about 50 of them on their stand:

 

 

EDIT: I posted the wrong video... here it is.

Well as far as I can tell, that must be all 50 of them in the UK. Never seen more than 3 or 4 for sale at any one point.

I'm assuming you've seen the article, but if not then it's 'reviewed' in this month's TopGear magazine.

They've been hovering in the "sensible affordable" price range for a few years now.

If it wasn't for the fact that I need to drive whatever car I have as an everyday car, I would have bought one instead of the HSV back in 2009.

 

I have a set of pics from Japfest 2007 when the NSX club did their track time, and the first car in the group took the last corner to quickly on cold tires and hit the wall and rolled it.

if you wan tuber rare, then the NSX type R is as rare as they come

Octane magazine (excellent mag!) did a feature including buying guide within the last couple of months.

A mate of mine has had a couple, the last one being a supercharged car

 

The sound they make with a Ti exhaust is glorious

 

Definitely a car I need to own at some point

I have to agree with you there, never liked the rear of the NSX

 

... the new NSX.... I will reserve judgement until its actually for sale, and not just something that turns up at shows

Couple of rang ane's.

 

The NSX even the old ones are a thing of sheer beauty. That new one is vile.

There are apparently 100 NSX's in the UK, 23 or which are SORN. Additionally there is 1 NSX F-matic and 56 NSX AUTO's but I'm unsure if the AUTO ones are part of the other 100 as they are listed separately. So I'm going for 157 NSX's in the UK ATM.

I'm not really surprised that they are very rare as they were 60k new. Having said that I used to see quite a few around here as there's a main Honda dealer not far away serving the Wirral and North Wales. After reading up about them it seems they only had 300 or so BHP and yet were classed as a supercar.

276bhp, as per the Japanese manufacturers' gentlemans agreement from a few years back. Good looking cars, even today, and I'm pretty sure the Senna connection has always helped keep prices up.

 

 

I'll take a 3.2 manual in blue, please!

Me too please. One the same as this somewhere near me, I see it out and about and it's glorious.

 

Such a compact car too! - http://jalopnik.com/365296/nissan-gt+r- ... er-the-nsx

Facelift model in White for me please

 

[Dynamic Turtle]

Bloody hell, 100, possibly "as many as" 157 in the UK?

 

Screw that
