Hello car enthusiasts! Let me start by saying, I love the NSX and I love THIS NSX! It was my childhood dream car, and I have since been fortunate enough to own 3 of them : ) I strayed along the way, with a classic e30 M3 and a 911 C2, my other two childhood dream cars. Neither of those cars offered the same reliability, affordability, exotic looks and "visceral" sports car feel- in other words the NSX is my grail!
Fast forward 16 years since my first NSX, it's been a remarkable run for both the NSX and my ownership experience- how many people own the same car (model) for that long?! That alone speaks volumes...But alas, I'm a relatively old fart now, priorities change, tastes change. Today I'm a family man; not the adrenaline-fueled, twenty-something bachelor I once was. I just bought a Grand Cherokee and I have a company car on top- so the the extra cash would be nice. This is the only reason for this sale. Now onto the details of this phenomenal car!
HISTORY/ CONDITION:
This NSX has been owned by a technology icon and then 3 anal retentive NSX enthusiasts & club members. It was first purchased by Steve Wozniak, that's right, Apple co-founder "The Woz"! I have service records dating back to his ownership, from the original dealership- Los Gatos Acura, CA, the next two owners, to present (I'm the fourth).
This NSX is a reasonably low mileage driver's car. These cars are meant to be driven, and although it is not daily driven, it is not a garage queen. It is a used car, it is NOT immaculate, but it is excellent condition. If you are looking for an all original, rarely driven, flawless garage queen- this is not the NSX for you. If you want an NSX that you won't hesitate to drive or park; an example that has been loved, well-maintained, documented, sorted & tastefully modified by enthusiasts- look no further!!! Sometime during the second ownership, the NSX was in a minor fender bender (side-swiped, no frame damage), affected panels replaced, multi-stage repaint. The rest of the car was wet-sanded, buffed & clear-coated. All work done by a reputable shop. The third owner lived in Boston and during his tenure, both front & rear bumpers had minor damage (did not warrant replacement) from parallel parking in the city- both bumpers have since been repaired & repainted.
As she sits today, there is one paint chip the size of a pencil eraser and there is inevitable curb rash on the front lip spoiler from when I pulled up too close to the curb while parking. You can either remove the spoiler and have it resprayed off the car, or take it to a detail shop that does airbrush touch-ups w/o having to remove spoiler (I've done this before, it's less than a $200 job). Overall, the paint looks uniform, fresh, wet and new. There are no dents and I haven't spotted any dings. Cosmetically, I would rate the exterior 8.9/10. The interior is very clean and in excellent condition for a car of its age. There is minor imperfection on the driver's side arm rest trim- just slight wrinkling of the metallic finish near the edge. There is minor wear at the driver's side seat bolster, but overall condition is above average. I would also rate the interior 8.9/10. This NSX has been garaged its entire life and it shows. For all intents & purposes, most admirers think it's a new car- I get thumbs ups, cell phone pics taken, and compliments all day long. The CARFAX is clean. I have title in hand. You will not be disappointed!
MECHANICALS:
First off, everything works EXCEPT the ABS pump recently went out, which is not uncommon for older NSX's. The only thing the driver will notice is the ABS indicator light will come & stay on while driving. The brakes are otherwise functional under everyday driving/ braking conditions. Some track drivers will actually delete the ABS system and Dali Racing sells the kit to do so. I have been comfortable driving it, so I'm leaving it as-is. My asking price reflects this. I have maintenance records since day one.
Last fall, all fluids were changed (it's been driven less than 200 miles since): DOT3 brake flush, oem transmission flush, oem coolant flush, air filter cleaned & BG44 added. Mobil 1 oil changes. Emissions & safety inspections current. The next preventive maintenance procedure will be the timing belt & water pump, which should be done at 90K, she currently has 77.5K on the clock. This NSX starts right up, drives solid, true, pulls hard, no clutch slippage, no leaks etc...This NSX is not in snap ring range. She is ready to drive until the 90K service mentioned above.
MODS:
This NSX has tasteful, cosmetic & performance mods. My goal was to slightly modernized her, while retaining its "old school" roots. Everything has been installed professionally, with careful attention to detail & retaining a factory OEM appearance. Buyer will also receive an uninstalled amp & custom NSX specific subwoofer (designed to go into the passenger-side footwell). The current set-up w/o these components sounds nice. Frankly, I prefer tuning into the sounds of the wailing VTEC at WOT thru the upgraded performance headers, exhaust, cold air intake behind my ears ; ) It's an exhilarating sound!!! The MODS:
COSMETIC:
- full Wings West aero kit. Professionally fitted. Modernizes the lines of the NSX, while retaining an "old school" vibe. The side skirts have been reinforced, as the polyurethane was prone to "sagging".

Acura RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD set for LA debut
Fri, 01 Nov 2013Acura has announced that it will be showing the production version of the RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show. You'll recall that the standard 3.5-liter V6-powered RLX has been on sale for some time, and that our review of Acura's flagship sedan was mixed. On paper, at least, the RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD should fare better.
Sporting a similar hybrid powertrain to the one expected to motivate the NSX supercar, the RLX uses a 3.5-liter V6 paired with a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and a trio of electric motors to generate 377 horsepower, net a combined fuel economy of 30 miles per gallon and offer the security and performance of torque-vectoring all-wheel drive.
The RLX will hit the LA stand on November 20. Scroll down for the full press release from Acura.
2019 Acura NSX inner workings revealed in Shin Yoshikawa cutaway drawing
Fri, Oct 12 2018Artist Shin Yoshikawa is known for his intricate drawings of cars, which show every little detail under the metal skin in a cutaway fashion. The hand-drawn, pointillist pencil work re-creates the cars in immense detail, and Yoshikawa's work has been celebrated for years. Some time ago, Yoshikawa was featured on "Jay Leno's Garage," talking about his art and just how much work it is to draw the cars like he does. Now, Yoshikawa has been asked to draw the Acura NSX, and the result is fantastically good, showing everything that makes a new NSX tick — including its SH-AWD power unit. Yoshikawa says the powertrain made the NSX a real challenge to re-create on paper. "The NSX's innovative power unit was extremely challenging to draw, making the second-generation NSX the most difficult vehicle I have sketched," Yoshikawa said. "Everything comes down to the details. If you don't understand the technology that goes into building vehicles, you won't be able to build them, and you certainly can't draw them." It took Yoshikawa months of work and background research to be able to draw the final result. The amazing thing is that the car was "largely" drawn from notes and memory, showing how deeply Yoshikawa gets into his work. The NSX was also updated for 2019, after two model years. For next year it gets a new exterior color, Thermal Orange, and some structural improvements to make it stiffer and more responsive, says Acura.Related Video: Driving Iron Man's Favorite Supercar, The Acura NSX | Translogic 215
