IMO the yellow NSX ‘works’ because the mods are subtle and ‘could’ have been factory ordered had Honda chosen to offer the options … it looks like Andrews car although I’m thinking he has blades not 02s …
Key message from James is when you are talking the money some NSX make (or are advertised for) today, it needs to be a good car, with good history in the first place, and if modded sensibly then why not, especially if the OEM parts come with the sale …

I think it is Andrews car but was under the impression he put on the 02 copies from Mita? They look like copies to me.Originally Posted by Senninha
"NA2 alloys" pffft, Torque GT should know better!

Well spotted Simon.
Didn’t see that on my phone. They look really good. Anyone that isn’t an anorak would be fooled. Still a great set of wheels.

I see the Brightwell car is back up soon

It was also interesting watching the Collecting car auction of the low mileage 92 car which sold for £76K + tax on the same platform in 2021. It made a lot more this time!
Again, personally I’d have been a little worried about the vin plate and lack of history, but perhaps a bit of research could sort this. I see there is a company that can do a really comprehensive search on JDM history now.

I saw this the other day as well. If the mileage is correct 36,000KM (just over 22K miles then it seems cheap (if you get it nearer the £70k than £100k estimate)).
But it does seem to be missing some history.
2005 NA2 NSX, Berlina Black with full red leather interior.
2016 NC1 NSX, Casino White Pearl with red semi-aniline leather and alcantara.
Actually, even the top end seems reasonable - it looks a typical JDM new car that collided with a rose thorn.

“I find myself irresistibly attracted to cars that nobody else buys. The NSX is a classic of the genre because nobody buys it and yet it’s a fantastic car. It’s got a wonderful compactness and simplicity and unpretentiousness to it. Honda rudely continues to make them whether we like it or not, even though there can be no commercial logic in doing so — I thoroughly admire that.” Rowan Atkinson

Out of the two torque cars. Not physically seen either. But on paper I’d have taken the red one. A third of the mileage for less money. The yellow car however does look stunning and I’m sure it will sell.

The red car in the first post is in a FastR YouTube video
They have got most of the facts straight, just a bit confused on some dates, BHP figures and the use of the word alloy instead of aluminium alloy ...
