The swine's charged me an additional £10 for increasing her value by £30k!

Makes me wonder what mine's worth.....any idea out there?

Buttons mate, I'll give you £25k, you should bite my arm off.

Just taken another look at the JDM NSX’s for sale on carsensor and goo. If you look well, you will notice that the quality of stock is pretty average. Sure there are some great cars for sale at the higher price range, but most of the current stock is pretty tatty. I’m talking about £70-80K cars with previous accident damage, tatty unoriginal interiors; wrong seats, tears in seats, excessive wear, wrong wheels, trim painted wrong colour, corrosion (surprising for jdm cars). Just not good.
Anyway, it makes me think two things; 1. The Japanese market is running out of good stock. And 2. They think that because the NSX has finally ascended, that people will buy any old rubbish for good money! What do we think?
As a footnote. I find it interesting that Ferrari has now become the cheap (unless you use it) option for 90’s junior supercars. The Porsche 993 and Honda NSX now consistently higher on price.

James, you are quite right. There are fewer mid-range NSXs that are not ultra-low mileage, or modified high-milers - perhaps it is a seasonal thing, I don't know.

I look on kuruma-ex.jp - currently there are six NA2-engined NSXs, only one of which has a price, the rest are POA. That one priced example - 217k GBP...
