    Plans seems to advertise cars on PH that are actually long gone. I suppose it must be in order to entice people to phone through with an enquiry.

    sorry i know very little about nsx engines and found it a bit strange that the other one went like it did, as vtec engines are always so reliable.

    just wondering why a manual was at that price as they have all shot up in price.
    I think that that car falls into the modified category, sadly regardless of amounts of money spent modified cars rarely achieve a return on mods. Hence why so many people break some cars or return them to stock. Too many mods for purist and "investors" shy away from unoriginal cars. Just look at the modified and converted cars prices in Japan. Most people will not mind a few minor mods ( exhaust, headers, intake ) or some cosmetics ( NSX-R wings, etc. ) , but SC, FI, widebody and 02 plus conversions hardly "increase" the value by the amount they cost. After all modified cars are unique and that in itself limits the market.

    mmm i see. i suppose restoring air con is expensive and tricky sourcing parts?
    just manuals have gone up so much of late. tough getting something under 30k.

    I had to re do mine and it was a pain sourcing an evap unit. It's an expensive part but based on the price you pay for the car you are saving a few quid in order to purchase. Compressors can be easier to source but pricey as well. Presuming all the pipe works have gone too you can see why car is discounted. I was certainly out a few £££'s sorting my car out after purchase

    massive weight saving in the car if kept out though

    Far be it for me to talk down NSX prices, but I cant help but feel that is quite ambitious!

    Still, if you don't ask!

    "With the new NSX expected to arrive in 2016 now is the time to purchase and own the original before prices rise"

    Great idea! I'll buy one at this end of the market just in case I can't find a cheap one anymore lol...

    That's just it though, for a laugh. Just as I don't think one random owners quote is going to influence the market in any great way I hardly think my tongue in cheek retort will deflate it either...

    I had a 964rs in the past, four Integrale Evo's and a few others that shot up in value. Much as I tried to tell everyone how amazing the prices were they were the buying public so just ignored me and bought anyway.. Again tongue in cheek
