Well it finally happened.....

[Rash]

After years of having the love for NSX's, and owning 3 x Auto NSX's (Last being the stripped out Auto with NOS fitted) I am now the proud owner of a 1997 Manual NSX 3.0 UK car.

Due to the limited numbers of the NSX it has been a long while of me searching one for the right car and price and I am happy to say it is a lovely example however if I am completely honest with myself its not my first choice colour (was after a red one). This beauty is green. Saying that all cleaned and polished with the sun shining on it is a lovely pearl / metallic colour.

The low mileage (61k Full Honda History and its only a 1 Owner vehicle) kind of swayed me to it.

Having read numerous posts from newbies about the good old Auto/Manual debate I must say going throught the gears on A Roads is greta fun but around town I find it a pain changing gears /clutch control as its a lot heavier to drive compared to my daily runner (Audi diesel).

Anyway just thought I'd pop in and say hi once again :)

Regards.
Rash

Welcome back Rash...whatever happened to the NoS'd car?

[Rash]

Hi,
Am based in Yorkshire. The Nos'd Honda NSX ended up going to a chap who exported it to Bangkok.

Cheers

Brooklands or Charlotte green is a fantastic colour. Congratulations!

[Rash]

Yep its not bad when its all cleaned up. Didnt realise it had a black roof until after I had bought it home....

[Senninha]

I like the Green\Tan combo although I do like the refresh that Sudesh did where he changed the carpet colour to black as IMO it made the interior look much classier without losing the OEM look and feel to the interior.

regards, Paul

Looks a nice car do the wheels effect the ride and handling compaired to your previous cars?

Us has to be best bet for wheels. These need refurb but worth 200 to get them perfect and to choose your colour!

If you like tge Matt black finish on these it's a good price for no refurb wheels:

Rash, welcome and nice to have another NSX up North!

[Rash]

Have a set of alloys just require a refurb on 1 of them. With regards to ride its difficult to say really as my ex NSX's all had aftermarket wheels on also...
However it doesnt feel rough and the ride is quite smooth still.

Hi mate,
Yep thats my car unfortunately its not that I dont like it....! I love it and it brings a smile to my face every time I look at it. However a combination of lack of use / cash flow and being in the trade I decided to put it up for sale to free some cash. If it sells it will help tide me / my business over the next few months. If it doesnt sell i'll struggle but wont lose any sleep over it :)

The 18" Oz wheels are now off the car and being sold seperately. THe stock 16/17" Alloys are now fitted to the car.

Cheers
