    Sorry for asking again, but would anyone know what 5S20001 would mean in a VIN or serial number for the European (Honda) version.

    Cheers

    I figure "5" is for the year of manufacture (2005); "S" is for Suzuka, as all models from approx. mid 2004; but what I can't figure out is what the "200001" could mean, or is this simply a coincidence and these numbers don't mean anything at all?

    I believe the 200001 is just a sequential serial number. I would not be surprised if the 1 means that it is the first one in the country that year but the 2 is maybe just because it went to Spain??

    With regard to the car, I would knock 15,000 off for putting the ugly reversing sensors on.

    NSXGB is 100% right about the sensors. The NSX never had them as an option, I believe not even in Japan. Real men know how to park a car and don't need pussy-like sensors.

    Regarding your search there haven't been much changes during the 14 production years. The major one was in 97 with 3.2/6-speed/bigger brakes. The optical update is not what everybody's taste matches.

    As for the color it's your decision. I'd never buy a car with a color which is rare just because it might sell better. Magnum-grey is also rare as hardly ever ordered it with this color as most people think it's ugly and disgusting.

    I would venture that different Stereo and parking sensors suggest that an owner has had an after market electronics guy work it over. I have never heard in any forum here or the US that have had a different stereo from the factory than the Bose system we all know and love.

    Its your choice but the rear bumper looks rough to me, especially when you are paying top euro for it!

    Cheers

    Well, I wouldn't cancel the deal just because of the sensors. But I'd deduct the price of a new upper bumper piece plus painting just to be able to go back.

    Hi,

    Where abouts in Spain do you live if you don't mind me asking?

    Just interested as I have relatives that live near Barcelona.
