^ At one point he goes on about the headlights popping up when you use the flash function being a "quirk" ... but it's the same in the Nissan S13 200sx and 180sx. Despite what he says, it's probably the same on most, if not all, other pop-up headlight cars. How else are they supposed to flash the hidden headlights? The only other way would be to flash the secondary "daytime running lights" instead, which would be more easily confused for turning indicators / hazard flashers.

And I think that's pretty generous considering that it's an auto and the fact that it has been in two accidents.

I think this one on NSXPrime is a better deal than the one on Autotrader. Both have a questionable history, but at least it's a manual.

NSX owners are a very savvy lot and I have little doubt that this automatic NSX was probably not worth more than $40K retail to have been bought for $30K. Remember, Carmax offers to buy your car for a fair price - it wasn’t some sleazy used car guy looking to “steal” the car from an unsuspecting owner. Probably has high mileage and needs some work. If I’m wrong and it’s in good shape with lower miles, it’s money in the bank with a manual transmission swap. Auto transmissions of the era weren’t very evolved at the time, so a more recent V6 Camry/Accord/Maxima might embarrass this NSX at the stoplight - until the road gets curvy, of course.

I saw this one for $49k, but the front bumper needs to be painted and it has some ugly wheels.

where was that listed?Is the market cooling off for the NSX? A black auto just sold today for a little less than $25k.
funny this thread popped up. i saw a red one yesterday on the road for the first time 7-8 years.

i think a lot of them are over priced. people think just because its a NSX that its automatically worth $100k. according to the listings a number of them are just sitting at used showroom for months at a time.
I was also tempted to bid on that black NSX, but I really have my heart set on red. Anyways, the buy it now price was $54k (not worth it imo) with the sale needing to meet final approval from the seller. I wouldn't be surprised if they met somewhere in the middle. If not, it will probably just get relisted again.Is the market cooling off for the NSX? A black auto just sold today for a little less than $25k.
Oh yeah, during the 2008 recession my friend was about to pick up a salvage titled NSX in FL for $12.5k, but he just couldn't get all the funds together. I even found a few projects for even less than that but I thought prices were just going to keep going down so I never pulled the trigger.
Yeah, it got relisted lol.
