Park Ridge, New Jersey, United States

 For sale we have a Japanese spec, 1999 Integra Type R , in Phoenix Yellow with matching yellow factory type e blk/yellow interior. The options from the factory on this car include, yellow Recaro front seats, yellow stitched shift boot, yellow stitched steering wheel, yellow stitched rear seats, factory rear tinted glass and metal pedal covers.  The 1998 to 2000 Type R Integras are highly prized as these cars are the final perfected forms of the dc2 Integra Type R. While exact production numbers are not available, the Japanese spec type r, in Phoenix yellow with yellow interior, is possibly the rarest off all Type R's.  Although I hesitate to call this car an Integra Type Rx, we have spoken with a contact at a japanese Honda dealer and he believes that this is in fact a Type Rx, because of the factory yellow interior and factory tinted glass.  The interior code on the inner door jamb reads type E black/yellow indicating that this car was born with the yellow interior.  Our contact in Japan believes that the original owner declined a couple options from the Type Rx package like blue tinted carbon interior accents, clock and keyless entry that would normally be included in the Type Rx package.  Included in the sale of the car will be an original Type Rx Japanese brochure from Honda.

This particular example, 1999 JAPANESE SPEC INTEGRA TYPE R #583 appears to have been nicely cared for throughout its lifetime, and is in overall excellent condition. The mileage currently reads 103,839 km (approx 64,522 miles), this number may go up as car is occasional driven on nice days. The car is currently titled with it's ten digit vin (DC2-1400504)  in Florida. The car is listed under a dc4 U.S. vin as ebay wouldn't let me list with the real 10 digit vin.  This is not a converted clipped car, this is a rear deal, right hand drive, all original factory car.  The only non OEM parts on this car are the spoon drop in air filter,the Jasma cat back exhaust and aftermarket pioneer mini disc radio. These modifications were performed in japan by a previous owner and the car, as you see it, is exactly as it arrived from japan after purchase. All of these modifications are easily returned to stock, if the new owner chooses to do so.

  Upon arrival in the U.S. the car was taken to the Acura dealership, where it was given a clean bill of health and any necessary maintenance was performed. There are no check engine lights, funny noises, rattles or mechanical issues with this car, everything functions exactly as Honda intended it to. The car is used and does show minimal wear. The body panels are all original Honda parts and the paint appears to be to be original as well, with the exception of the front bumper,  there has been a couple paint chips touched up on the hood and one on fender, there appears to be small front bumper scrape that was touched up as well, again these repairs were made by a previous owner.  There are also a couple paint chips on the driver side door edge and a couple on the inner driver side door jamb, where it appears that the door may have been closed on the seat belt.
 As far as I can see there are 2 dings on the car one on the rear hatch by the Honda emblem and one on the filler panel under the rear tail lights. They could most likely be fixed with paintless dent repair. There is a small crease in the right side front corner of the hood, please reference pictures. Other than these flaws the body and paint are in excellent condition, the paint shines brighly as it should.

The interior is clean and shows only a little wear on the driver side yellow Recaro, which would clean up with a light cleaning..  It appears that at one time a previous owner had a dash mounted navigation or radar detector that left an imprint on the dashboard. Other than that the interior appears to be in extremely good condition, the original Honda floor mats are also still in place.

We have chosen not to repair or repaint any panels, steam clean the seats  or even to buff the paint, as the condition of the car is so original, we leave these small imperfections to be taken care of by new owner, if they choose to do so.  Please be sure to reference the provided pictures.

I have done my best to illustrate any flaws so you have a real idea of the condition of this car, some of the flaws are small and can be tough to see in pictures.
If you are truly interested in the car, please do not hesitate to ask for more pictures or contact me for more information or questions in general at (201) 560-7429

The car is currently located in New Jersey, the buyer will be responsible for either picking up the car or arranging pickup and delivery, we will assist in any way possible.  We welcome potential buyers to come check the car out in person, by appointment.

I have the car for sale locally and reserve the right to end this auction at any time.  Please if you do not plan on buying the car do not bid, also please do not
ask me what my reserve price is. A deposit of $500 will be required within 2 days of auctions end.  0 feedback bidders must contact me first before bidding.

Acura NSX production delayed

Fri, Aug 14 2015

Listeners of the Autoblog Podcast will be familiar with my opinions on the Acura NSX. While I love the idea of Acura building a halo car again, I've routinely joked on-air that the car will never, ever reach production and will continue being teased and previewed ad nauseam. So I'm chuckling at this news: the NSX is being delayed again. To be fair, while it sounds like a big deal – pushing the NSX back from model year 2016 to 2017 – this is a fairly minor delay in the grand scheme. Instead of starting production this fall, as previously announced, the new supercar will start rolling down the line at Honda's Marysville, OH factory in the spring. "Trial production" has already started, Honda says, while briefly acknowledging the delay in the attached press release. While Honda offered no reason for the delay in volume production, Automobile claims it's the fault of the move to fit two turbochargers to the V6, which was made midway through development. Fitting the two iron lungs meant rearranging the six-pot into a longitudinal layout. Here's hoping there are no further delays. Scroll on for a look at Honda's press release, which does its best to gloss over the NSX delay while talking about the company's new Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville.

The next-generation Acura NSX is produced at the new, dedicated Performance Manufacturing Center (PMC) in Marysville, Ohio, using domestic and globally sourced parts. With trial production already underway and production start-up scheduled for spring 2016, this world-class manufacturing facility employs groundbreaking techniques in weld, body construction, body painting, final assembly and quality confirmation to ensure the highest levels of precision and craftsmanship. More details on the unique and innovative manufacturing processes at the PMC will be rolled out over the months leading up to the start of production, but the following highlights of the new facility were shared during the 2015 Monterey Automotive Week: Innovative blend of people and technology: throughout the PMC, NSX production is centered around the skills of approximately 100 experienced engineers and technicians building the NSX to precise levels of quality and craftsmanship.

2017 Acura NSX First Drive [w/video]

Mon, Oct 26 2015

The 2017 Acura NSX is heavy. It outweighs the original 1990 car by more than 800 pounds and is over 300 heavier than a Chevrolet Corvette Z06. The NSX is insanely complicated, with an assist motor between the twin-turbo V6 and the nine-speed dual-clutch transmission, plus two torque-vectoring electric motors at the front axle. And the NSX is expensive. It will probably cost $170,000 when it goes on sale in Spring 2016. Commence trolling. If you hadn't guessed, the new NSX isn't much like the first generation built from 1990 to 2005. But the two cars share a common philosophy. Both are Acura's interpretation of what a modern, everyday supercar should be. Based on the new car, things have changed a lot in the last 25 years. For project leader Ted Klaus, the original NSX was one reason he started working at Honda. At the 1990 Detroit Auto Show, "I sat watching that car for a while. A really long while. Even just looking at that car I could see the deep, advanced, functional beauty." The most difficult thing with the new NSX, says Klaus, is to explain how a heavier and more complicated car can outperform other cars in a way that feels like traditional lightweighting. View 33 Photos This is not the way the NSX was supposed to be at first. The original plan was a transverse-mounted, naturally aspirated engine just like the first car. The NSX has a giant bag of neat tricks, but to understand them takes a lengthy explanation that starts with the Sport Hybrid SH-AWD powertrain. Behind the cockpit is a 75-degree, twin-turbocharged, 3.5-liter V6, made specifically for the NSX. On its own it puts out 500 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The rest of Honda's lineup uses a 60-degree layout, but the wider angle here lowers the center of gravity. Behind the engine is the rear assist motor, with 47 hp and 100 lb-ft. Hanging off the rear of that is the nine-speed dual-clutch, developed in-house. In between the front wheels is the Twin Motor Unit (TMU), a pair of 36-hp, 54-lb-ft electric motors that add or subtract forces to their respective sides. The Power Drive unit manages the electronics, and sits in the center spine of the car like a traditional prop shaft. A lithium-ion battery pack is behind the pair of seats, on the cold side of the firewall. Total system output is 573 hp and 476 lb-ft. This is not the way the NSX was supposed to be at first. The original plan was a transverse-mounted, naturally aspirated engine just like the first car.

2016 Acura ILX, for better or worse [UPDATE]

Thu, Nov 20 2014

Unfortunately, the slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission has been discontinued. UPDATE: A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that the 2.4-liter engine in the 2016 ILX is the same unit found in the Honda Civic Si. The ILX's new engine is the same direct-injected four-cylinder found in the new TLX. The text has been edited to reflect this. "It's just a badge-engineered Honda Civic." This (uninformed) criticism has been leveled at the Acura ILX since the premium compact arrived on the scene to duke it out with the Buick Verano and, more recently, the Audi A3 and Mercedes-Benz CLA-class. For model year 2016, Acura will attempt to address the car's critics, issuing a major reshuffle of the sedan's lineup along with the typical sheen of a mid-cycle refresh. Following up on the discontinuation of the ILX Hybrid for 2015, Acura is dispatching the antiquated pairing of the base 2.0-liter four-cylinder and five-speed automatic for 2016, and simply slotting in the standard powertrain of the TLX. The 2.4-liter four-cylinder produces 201 horsepower and 180 pound-feet of torque, with peak output arriving at 3,600 rpm. The ILX also benefits from the same eight-speed, dual-clutch transmission found in the TLX. Unfortunately, the slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission we've always enjoyed has been discontinued. Sad trombone, indeed. Powertrain tweaks aside, Acura has issued a pretty handsome freshening for 2016. The ILX was always a handsome offering, but the new front and rear clips are improvements. Acura's love-it-or-hate-it JewelEye headlights have been grafted onto the ILX, while the grille, a traditional weak point for the brand, is perhaps one of the best we've seen out of the company in several years. The rear taillights also received some attention, although it was the back bumper that saw the biggest update, with the lower section getting a sportier look. Acura will also add a new A-Spec package for 2016, which replaces the standard 17-inch wheels with 18s, adds "Euro-style" stitching to the steering wheel and adds black Lux Suede inserts to the seats, along with a flurry of smaller aesthetic tweaks. The A-Spec can be added alongside the existing Premium and Technology Packs. Acura hasn't released any interior images as of this writing, although we'll be sure to snap a few following today's debut conference at the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. Until then, scroll down for the official press release from Acura.
