    I've always thought this to be a great NSX ... Only you know if you've had the enjoyment from it you were after, and with the Spyder already in Spain I think you've partly made up your mind.

    Someone would be getting a great car (but may want to tone down some of the bling )

    As for pricing, wait till your ready as the market is moving north at present so today's indication could be out of date by August.

    truly is a fine example of an NSX. fully appreciate your circumstances ... as Paul says until your ready its best to pitch accordingly.

    there are a number of enquiries on here NSX ownership

    i for one would be very keen in discussing your rear spoiler if you had thought of reverting the car to standard as much as possible prior to sale and offering your 'bling' parts separately.

    good luck with ur decision

    ps. sell the kwaks and keep the NSX or at least buy a triumph

    Should have thought it's more valuable 'original' plus proceeds of parts. These things usually are.

    I may be wrong, but I believe Dave's conundrum is whether or not to part with his NSX, rather than whether or not he should return to standard & sell the car / parts separately.

    Whatever you decide Dave, enjoy life in Spain.

    What Ian said /\/\/\

    Selling the car as a whole is how I read it and responded above ...

    that is how i read the post as well, however in my post i stated "i for one would be very keen in discussing your rear spoiler if you had thought of reverting the car to standard as much as possible prior to sale and offering your 'bling' parts separately."

    I guess this is where the confusion arose, this applies ONLY if Dave wishes to revert to standard prior to sale. I did not say it was going to happen or made an asumption that the car was being parted.

    Hope this clarifies any confusion from my post

    Either way would be a lovely car to own bling or no bling!

    Thanks for the nice comments Gents, I know alot of the NSX die hards always go for standard, but during my ownership I've had nothing but really positive feedback everywhere I've taken her.
    You are correct, it's wether to part company or not, if it is to go, it will be sold as she stands, I don't have the time these days to put it back, although I still have just about all of the original parts (unfortunately Nobby not the spoiler) if someone did want to go back to standard these will obviously up for grabs.
    Decisions decisions, I'll keep an eye on prices and revisit in August.

    I'm strictly a Kawasaki man Nobby, a Triumph is out of the question, although I think one of the bikes will be going aswell.
    Cheers

    Dave

    I'm not attracted by a womans mind, only what she doesn't mind!!!

    Apologies! Getting rather too used to gaddam' mofo Merkinisms in the interweb these days.

    Parting out, putting out, hellagash...
