May be the snow & weather is a factor & people waiting until Spring?

Honda's Finest Hour
My friend offered £60,000 for the car and it was refused. So I guess he is holding out for £65,000 or doesn't need to sell it now. My car is not going anywhere! It has been in the showroom at Honda Chiswick for the last few months. They are delivering it back to me this week, so if anyone fancies an NSX meet on Sunday let me know. I'm in NW London but happy to travel 30 mins or so.

from Gordon Murray: The NSX’s development costs must have been enormous. Everything on it is unique. The chassis, powertrain, even the air conditioning are peerless. That aluminum body was very expensive. The numerous hurdles overcome by the NSX to reach production in areas such as spot welding, corrosion, and repairability make it a monumental work in automotive history.
Glad to hear it Mark, you have a stunning example!

I think that's got a lot to do with it. Many people hibernate over the winter then start looking around March.
Nice to see the silverstone car getting such strong a offer though. Certainly it's a reinforcement of the growing popularity of these cars and a vee to all the blinkered P & F car enthusiasts! In context, it means they are now making the same or more than; 355's, 993's, 996 GT3's, 360's, etc. got to be a well deserved kick in the teeth for someone;-)
Cheers.

As Clarkson, May and Hammond said on Sundays Top Gear, Classics are going through the roof at the moment, but it's not just your established classics like E Types and MGB's but Mk1 and 2 Golf GTi's, Peugeot 205 GTi's, Ford Cosworths etc, and I would say the NSX is becoming or is a classic now, but we have discussed this before.

Do I wish I had kept my 4 speed Mk1 Golf GTi 1.6 (ex Nigel Mansell), Mk 2 Escort, 205 GTi 1.6, Austin Healey Sprite.

That 2CV is excellent!
I also regret selling mine ( a more mundane red example). it was great fun to drive and taught me more about preserving momentum than any other car I have owned.

"If you want to argue that The Best Car in the World is a supercar, go ahead. But there is only one that makes the grade. Only one that's built properly.
Gordon Murray knows.
Rowan Atkinson knows.
It's the Honda NSX."
