NSX Prices

No it was to comply with the 1995 change in US legislation.

So how many US NSX's have there been with snapped timing belts between 5 and 8 years? I havn't heard or read of any on prime.

I know of one here that jumped a few teeth, so have some in the US.

But what's to say that Honda wern't being overly cautious on the earlier cars?
I can't see them just raising the time limit of the new shape(or at least 04>) to 8 years just for the hell of it.It must be safe.

I know the service schedule on the 3.2 is much longer than the 3.0 but not sure about cambelts. Mine was done after 5/6 years and I'm expecting to do another the year after next (I think!). Not paid much attention to what gets done when really... the garage tells me which one I need!

If it's the same part then there's not going to be less strain in the later engines!

A cabbie told me that he did 90k miles in his ****roen tdi and the cambelt snapped. Think it was due at 100k.

Better to be safe than sorry, guidelines aren;t always right. Ask yourself... do you feel lucky, punk?

I propose from now on we opperate a sealed bids system for selling NSXs. They will all be advertised at £30K and the best bid gets it. Seems about as sensible as some people's thoughts on car values recently...

Such a catch-22 dilemma for me.

Selfishly, would love to see prices drop like a rock so that my wife could get that coveted 2nd NSX in the drive-way that she's been going on about for the past year.
unfortunately With the yen price... importing a Black pop-up targa -- drool... drool... is out of the question for the next 5 years???...

but wait...I have a '03 that I would like to see keep the great re-sale value it seems to be maintaining and which appears will maintain for years to come....

DOH!

If memory serves me correct it's 96 months,not sure if it's 50 or 60K though.

[TheSebringOne]

Isn't it 72,000 miles?

[NSXGB]

. . . No, 60000! Or 6 years. . . for the 3.0.

Gives me ages until the next one then

Thanks

60,000 miles or 60 months = 5 years.
