I personally think £10k is way too much for a car being broken for spares that has obviously been sitting for some time. Fair play though, the dealer got a good price.

Well considering not long ago you could have had a fully functioning auto for that price.

I'd put a 'place-holder' bid down while I was desperately working out where I'd store it!
NSXCB Vendor
I was also watching and bidding for this car here from Portugal, that would be just perfect to complete my "naked" test car I bought 3 month ago from Honda delalership in France!
When I asked them for more details of the car prior to bid, here's what they answered me:
"Vehicle is 5spd man fwd.
engine will manually turn
interior is complete. black leather
we have keys for vehicle
Airbags are not deployed.
vehicle will likely go for more than £2000
Please remember we will remove the bulkhead and floor prior to removal as vehicle is for parts only"
I ended up offering them 4000£..but now I understand why they didn't sell it to me
Anyway, 10K is way too high considering there is no papers, engine is probably not running, and steering wheel on the wrong side of the car
It wasn't me!....
it must be someone who has spare body panels... Maybe someone who going wide body ??
SS
Lexus LC500h.......New Daily run around with some saving the Planet thoughts
Black/black 95 NSX NA with mk1 Ary exhaust....Now sold
Red/Black 91 NSX treasure.....FINo more NA
Silver/Pearl White/Black 1993 NSX 3.0 5 MT NSX ZAZ R-GT Twin Scroll Turbo
bit of t-cut sort that out lol.
With that info perhaps not worth 10k ... But there are some very good salvageable parts from that car and will fetch good money if/when needed.

Don't be there are a lot of things that are kept quiet on this "open" community.

Seems a lot given that its obviously a cat a or b and therefore cannot be put back on the road.
Good value if you have a bare car and need to rebuild but for a dealer to buy and sell the parts from, they will be there for a very long time selling parts just to get your money back.
Not another NSX project!
