Goodbye to the best car I have ever owned.

[JQD84983]

Well due to an ambitious building project I have parted with my beloved NSX a few months earlier than anticipated.

Just a note to say how much I have enjoyed the car and dealing with papalazarou during the protracted negotiations. As others have mentioned on here James is a man of his word and I can add my voice to those comments.

While I am very sad to see her go (changing the plates on Saturday was hellish as I had hoped to let her go without being in close proximity again) I am pleased she is going to an enthusiast who (normally) looks after his cars well, track days aside. It worked well for me to not have to negotiate with a wannabee or time waster and eased the pain no end.

Over the years my father has had one or two sports cars from Porsche, TVR, Mercedes and the ilk but rates the NSX as the best allrounder. I have to say I agree (not that I got to drive many of them at the time but rode in them a lot).

I would like to say I will definately own another but I think the chances of finding another one as good when the time comes is remote but you never know.

Best wishes James enjoy the car as much as I did,

Cheers

John

Hi John,

Sorry to hear the sad news of parting with the NSX, hopefully if you do come back to ownership there will be something as good out there.

And congrats to James! Take really take you that long to find another lol

Sorry you had to sell, but congrats to James!

For this of us interested in nsx appreciation are you able to divulge mileage and sale price?

I'm particularly interested as this is about as close to my car as I'm ever likely to see!

Thanks,

Luke

Many thanks John for offering me the car. It was just as described and really made my day. Today I've been hard at work cleaning it. Unfortunately there wasn't a great deal to do!
Hard to believe this is my my fourth in just over five years. I intend on holding on to this one and keeping away from wet slippery tracks with little or no run off.

Cheers,


James.

Sad to see a member move their car on. All the best in your new venture John.

Well done James for holding out and getting the car you wanted. By the sounds of it you have got a cracker.
Great to hear you have got sorted with another NSX

Nice to see the forum working for true lovers of the NSX

Shame you had to sell. This won't be any comfort, but the NSX is the *only* car I've regretted selling, I should have just kept it.

James - try not to prang it eh?

[Nick Graves]

Congratulations on finding another one so effectively, James! Better luck with it.

Sorry that you need to sell it though John. Good luck with the project.

[NSXGB]

Well done James, you move fast. Being a slower colour it should be easier to keep out of trouble in...
