    You may struggle to find a new OEM one as Honda no longer manufactures it as a new batch. You will need to find one from the remaining stock.

    There seems to be lots of nice aftermarket ones as well.

    Not sure of using the car cover for indoor storage but as I don’t know your aim of using it, please take it as just my personal view.

    If you want to try finding the OEM one, then followings are some information and part no. for you.

    * 08P34-SL0-200 For 91 – 01 model
    Made from Polyester/Cotton
    About $160 with discount in US.
    About GBP173 + VAT from UK Honda dealer.
    On some of the US website, it looked like Gray car cover with Red ‘NSX’ logo on the front without ‘Acura’ or ‘Honda’ logo but please confirm this if you are interested in this one.


    * 08P34-SL0-200A For 02 – 05 model
    Made from Polyester/Cotton
    About $227 with discount in US.
    It seems that this one is not available in UK.
    On some of the US website, it looked like Gray car cover with Blue ‘NSX’ logo on the front with ‘A’ mark of Acura but please confirm this if you are interested in this one.


    * 08P34-SL0-J00 For all year model
    Made from Gore-Tex with side panel protection
    It seems that this one is not available in UK. Not sure about US.
    It is available in Japan and probably the most expensive car cover for JDM production car.
    About JPY189,000 which is about GBP1,500 at current exchange rate.
    As per attached photo.

    * 08P34-SL0-A00 For all year model
    Made from Gore-Tex without side panel protection
    About GBP727 + VAT. Not sure about US.
    Same as above except this one does NOT include the side protection.


    * 08P34-SL0-C00 Seems to be for all year model
    Made from Polyester only
    About GBP137 + VAT. Not sure about US.
    Blue car cover with White ‘NSX’ logo at the front but please confirm this if you are interested in this one.


    Again, it all depends on the remaining stock at the dealer.

    Hi JP825,

    Like you I wanted a good indoor cover...
    I got this from Mark in Dali last year. Its very soft on the inside, fits well, I like the logo, and this bag that comes with it is handy to keep it in during the summer...

    From other comments on this thread, I'm glad I have this "extra" now, as they are clearly going to get scarce in the future...

    I have a Classic Additions indoor cover in sweatshirt material (best description) in red/black with grey piping between the two - looks great. But you can have any colour combination you like. It is made to measure and fits perfectly. all my bikes and cars have one. Reasonable price too - look in car mags for details.

    I'm not looking for a record... but what are the options nowadays if you're looking for such a pyjama?
    I've seen SoS has one ($250) and thensxshop has one from Route-KS (a little bit expensive at $500). Does anyone have the SoS one or could recommend a good one?

    Main usage?
    Just for indoor storage or going to be used outside as well?

    Just for indoor storage over the winter period to keep dust (as well as mouses, rats and children) from the car.

    I won't be using it during the driving season as it won't be dirt-free and I fear to scratch the paint when it's not absolutely clean.

    Not cheap, but IMHO you can't beat the Covercraft Custom covers.

    I got mine from SpecialisedCovers.com - the prestige elite model, no less. Fits perfectly and provides great protection. Comes with an inner bag and a hold-all.

    Every year at Silverstone Classic, I visited the Classic Additions stand and checked the material used.

    I have also seen and felt the custom made indoor one for NSX.

    Very soft inside and stretches really well so for indoor usage, good for dust protection.

    Classic Additions do a great cover for the NSX. The material used is brilliant and done to a high quality. mine is an indoor cover
    been using it for years and still fits the car really well and there is still a good tightness in the cover.

    highly recommend
