One of the finest NSX's anywhere, adult owned, never tracked, meticulously maintained!


I am the 3rd owner of this stunning 1998 Berlina Black NSX-T.  I have only owned it for about one year.  I am selling it for several reasons that have made it difficult for me to enjoy the car.   First, there are several age related health issues that have made it more difficult for me drive the NSX more frequently .  Second,  I am spending much of my free time finishing the restoration of my 1956 Corvette, which also interferes with the free time that I have to drive the NSX.  Finally, and probably most importantly, I simply have too many cars often referred to  as "Big Boy Toys." I'm selling some of them now so that my wife isn't forced to deal with them in the future!  But I'm selling them, only if I can get a fair price. Both Kelley Blue Book and NADA Price Guide value this NSX at $40,000+; therefore, I think my asking price is very reasonable.  

I purchased the NSX last year in Plano, Texas where it spent its entire life.  Obviously it's never been driven in the snow, and I'd  venture to say it probably has never seen rain.  It was originally purchased at the McDavid  Acura dealer in Plano, TX, and. afterward it was serviced there its entire life by one Master NSX Tech named Carl.  The second owner pampered this car and provided me with  lot of maintenance receipts, parts receipts, and other documentation to show just how well it had been taken car of.  Those receipts are available to whomever buys the car. 

It is a rare automatic, and runs extremely strong.  I personally think this automatic holds its own and is a blast to drive.   It has plenty of power, and if you prefer you can use the "power shifter paddles" on the steering column. Owner #2 had several cosmetic modification and/ or updates performed on this car. He had new factory OE door grips and handles and knee boltsers installed last year at a cost of $1500.  To me, the interior looks and feels brand new. The car is beautiful both cosmetically and mechanically. There ARE NO ISSUES with the car.  It runs great, sounds great, shifts smooth and drives with authority. If you want a great handling car along with a lot of attention then this NSX is the car for you.  Many people stop and stare at it and inevitably ask what is it and what year is it?  Nobody can believe it's a 1998 model.  Before the NSX was introduced as a supercar in 1991 by Honda, many "car experts" scoffed at it. History showed that it held its own against the Ferraris, Porsches, and many other exotics.   Moreover, it became apparent that the NSX is much easier and less expensive to maintain than the higher priced super cars. 

All of the expensive stuff has already been done on this NSX courtesy of owner #2, and once again, all of the receipts are available.  Belts, water pump, timing belt, AC service, CV boot, Valve adjustment and cam plugs, transmission service and more have been done.  The Carfax report that I recently acquired confirms that all of the aforementioned services had been performed by the McDavid Acura dealership in Plano.   The previous owner of eight years pampered this NSX, and I have continued to do so. It was recently professionally detailed and it looks amazing.  Oil changes using Mobil one have been done every 3000 miles. A year ago new Bridgestones were installed on the rear wheels, the fronts didn't need them.  If you want a second set of 4 Bridgestones with the original factory wheels, they are available.

All of the other NSX issues also were taken care of.  The factory new climate control and main fuse were attended to.  I have had no mechanical issues with it in the time that I have owned it.  The plugs were changed one year ago. You can buy the car and immediately enjoy it, because it has no issues. The car is a show stopper, and gets unbelievable attention wherever I drive it.  If you don't like being asked questions about your car, this one is not for you.   

All of the modifications that have been performed on this NSX were tastefully done and purely cosmetic. They are all easily reversible if you want to return it to a 100% original NSX.  Personally I think it looks better the way it is right now.  Nethertheless,  I have all of the original stock parts for the car including the original wheels, struts, side skirts, intake, muffler and more if your want to return it to the original factory specs.  Some after market parts are also available including a nose bra, mirror bra, interior aluminum trim parts,and a car cover. No mechanical alterations were performed on this car.

The cosmetic modifications include the following:

Wings West Side Skirts and Spats, 
JIC Coil Overs adjustable from the top, with fully adjustable height and ride. Rides better than stock
I-Forged 2 piece wheels, black center, polished lip, 17's on front, 18's on rear
Comptech aluminum engine brace
Machined aluminum trim rings around gauges, and extra trim pieces uninstalled
Ark quad tip exhaust and Downforce Air Intake (adds about 10-15 hp)
 Floor mats, New NSX "R" style with red trim
Seats were reupolstered with new perforated black leather from Leatherseats,com (original seat covers available)
An I-pod and I-pod adapter with USB adapter from Grom was added. CD changer
Nose/bumper was repainted by Acura dealer to eliminate the rock chips.  It looks great!

Before I bought the car last year, I flew to Plano, Texas  to inspect it. I then had it delivered to  my home from Plano in an enclosed trailer by a professional classic car transportation company.  I live about 30 miles directly west of Pittsburgh, PA.  Since I have owned the car I have only driven it about 500 miles. There are no issues mechanical or otherwise that have occurred within the last year.  I have probably pampered the car even more than the other two owners.  In my opinion, this NSX is definitely way above range vs. similar 1998 sports cars.  It was introduced as an upper premium exotic, and I can say without hesitation that its a heck of lot easier to maintain than some of the other much higher priced exotics (because I've owned some of them).  

I believe this NSX is in excellent condition both mechanically and cosmetically, but it is fifteen years old; therefore, it is being sold "As Is" with no warranties written or implied.   If you look long and hard enough you might find a couple of minor flaws, but I don't think you'll find a nicer one for sale nor one that has been pampered and serviced like this one. It is being advertised locally, as well as through other automotive venues; therefore, I reserve the right to end this listing early.

If you or a representative would like to inspect the vehicle, please contact me to make arrangements. If you would like a copy of the CARFAX report contact me, and I'll provide it for you.  If you're really serious about the car,  and you need additional information,  you can reach me by phone at (304) 491-2020.  If I'm examining a patient,  or I am otherwise unable to take your call,  please leave a message,  and I will return your call as soon as possible. Finally,  please understand that this IS NOT a distress sale!!  I think I have priced the car fairly and firmly.  I may knock off a $1000 if you don't want all of the original parts, but that's it, so please don't bother sending me any ridiculous offers.  Time is too precious to waste!!!  Thanks for looking, and have a wonderful day!!!

2016 Acura NSX aimed at Ferrari 458 for the price of Audi R8

Wed, 08 Oct 2014

Acura has done a good job of keeping the next-generation NSX under the wraps for the past few months, especially after a fiery little incident during testing at the Nürburgring earlier this year. But UK's What Car? recently got a chance to speak with development boss Ted Klaus, and he unleashed a few new details about the much-anticipated supercar to make it even harder for us to wait.
Among the info was a strong estimate of the NSX's performance potential. "We have to achieve the type of acceleration that the customer is achieving with the Ferrari," said Klaus to What Car?. "More importantly we have to achieve this every day and also at the Nürburgring." Assuming Acura's supercar is as actually quick as a 458 Italia, then it could hit 60 miles per hour in around 3.5 seconds.
Klaus also claims that the wickedly fast performance could come at a relative bargain for the class. The price is reportedly being benchmarked against the Audi R8, which would put the NSX around $130,000 in the US. While hardly cheap, it would still be a healthy discount off a 458.

NSX Concept-GT is the world's hottest way to boil water

Sat, 05 Oct 2013

The Honda NSX Concept-GT is one sexy machine, and it looks to be a very effective tool on a race circuit. But Honda's latest web spot leads us to believe that it also can be used to make tea.
In the video, the racecar is hooked up to an apparatus that uses tubing to harness the energy from the car's 500-horsepower hybrid drive system, using it to boil water. The novel tea-making technique reminds us a bit of a couple other inventive Honda commercials, namely Hands and Cog.
Watch the NSX ad below, and be sure to turn the sound up to hear that glorious engine note.

IIHS says these are the safest cars of 2013

Wed, 02 Jan 2013

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has revealed its annual list of Top Safety Picks, an award that highlights automobiles it says offer "superior crash protection." A new and still more significant award, the Top Safety Pick+ honor, is given to those vehicles that earn good ratings for occupant protection in four out of five areas of measure. And while some 117 vehicles were given the TSP seal of approval for 2013, just 13 passed muster for TSP+.
To be fair, IIHS only evaluated 29 vehicles with its new testing procedures for TSP+ (we'd expect that the number of qualified cars will rise substantially for 2014). Luxury and Near Luxury midsize cars were the first groups evaluated, followed by midsizers in the Moderately Priced Cars category - unsurprisingly, it's only midsize cars that you'll find among the class this year.
Only two luxury sedans made the list of 13 for 2013: the Acura TL and Volvo S60. The other 11 cars on the list included entries from domestic, Japanese and German car makers: Dodge Avenger, Chrysler 200, Ford Fusion, Honda Accord (sedan and coupe), Kia Optima (but not its close kin, the Hyundai Sonata, strangely), Nissan Altima, Subaru Legacy and Outback, Suzuki Kizashi and the Volkswagen Passat all made the grade.
