Thread: NSX Books / Bibliography

  1. #1

    Default NSX Books / Bibliography

    I was checking Amazon on the availbility of various books published about the NSX.

    I note that "Honda NSX" by Brian Long (ISBN: 1845840151 Veloce Publishing PLC (Jul 2005) ) is listed at £250.00 on the Amazon Web Site.

    Is this cost credible? Is this book a collectors' item?

    How does this compare with other sic [desireable] NSX books?

    WTF!

    IIRC paid about forty notes for it!

    I'd chack fleabay; it's either a typo or a far better investment than the car!

    It's well worth a read is you're an NSX convert.

    What does IIRC mean...? I'm not really up / down with webtext or whatever it is and that one I've never managed to work out...?

    That is the leather bound collectable is one of 500 and new costs £350!! The standard Hardback is still circa £40 (cheaper if you have access to the discount code giving 40% off for the next month or so)

    Input NSX and it brings up both versions.

    I can't help feeling it'll be £40 on Fleabay in a couple of years' time.
