1991 Acura Nsx - 38,440 Miles on 2040-cars
Year:1991
Mileage:38440
Location:
Nashville, Tennessee, United States
|
History of my NSX: I originally purchased the car in 1996, and it had 14,055 miles on it at the time. It currently has 38,440 miles. In my years of ownership, the car has never been in the rain. I put it on jack stands or on a lift every year and completely detail the chassis. It truly is one of the nicest early hardtop NSX's in the country.
Paperwork and Service Records: I have all the paperwork for the car back to when it was sold new, including the window sticker, the drive out temporary tag, and every service record and receipt since 1991. They are all housed in a three ring binder in laminated sheets. Recent maintenance in the past 1000 miles includes the following: -Synthetic oil changes (two times) -Flushed the brake system and replaced the fluid with ATE Super Blue DOT4 -Replaced the timing belt, water pump, all accessory belts, valve cover gaskets, spark plug seals, oil cooler hoses and all 22 coolant hoses -During the timing belt service, it was noticed that the clutch master cylinder and clutch slave cylinder were slightly leaking, so they were both replaced. -Valves adjusted The NSX tech who has worked on my car since 2001 is Barney Demonbreun (aka Barnman on NSX Prime). He is considered by many as one of the top NSX technicians in the country.
Modifications: The OEM exhaust has been changed to a Taitec GT Lightweight exhaust, which has a fabulous deep sound to it . The wheels have been replaced with a set of staggered Enkei PF01's (17" front and 18" rear) and they have a set of Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 tires on them (approx. 9/32" tread depth remaining). The shocks have been replaced with Bilsteins, and have been set on the lower perch, which lowers the car approx. 1 inch. In addition, my car has a reusable Uni foam air filter rather than a stock paper filter. I have the original exhaust, original wheels and original shocks, and they also go with the car. In addition to the original parts I've just outlined, I have the original factory NSX car cover and storage bag, as well as an NSX front nose bra that's been used just one time.
If you are looking for a pristine, low mileage, fanatically maintained, never abused NSX, you won't finder one nicer anywhere. I've owned 108 weekend "toys" like my NSX over the 27 years of my marriage. I have done frame off restorations on a number of '60's and early '70's muscle cars to national award winning levels. My NSX is every bit as nice as those fully restored show cars I've owned.

Junkyard Gem: 1996 Acura 3.5 RL, Rocky Mountain Rambler 500 Edition
Sun, Oct 11 2020Honda had a good sales run with the Acura Legend, the first of the luxury-marque spinoffs from well-known Japanese carmakers to appear on our shores, but times change and the RL replaced the Legend as Acura's flagship starting in the 1996 model year. Here's one of those first-year RLs, found in a Denver boneyard covered in decorations from the Rocky Mountain Rambler 500 road rally. The Rocky Mountain Rambler 500 involves a lot of punitive off-road driving, so cars that have no business on the dirt seem to get coolness points. That makes Honda's most expensive vehicle of 24 years ago a fine choice of ride. I can't determine how well this car did, but the drivers looked optimistic during the inspections last month. Since the ignition key is still in the switch, I'm assuming it wasn't running so well after the rally and the team decided to bid farewell to their Acura in the lowest-hassle way possible: sell it to the nearest U-Pull-&-Pay. The team appears to have gone for a Pirates of the Caribbean theme with their big land yacht. The evil-looking wheel covers looked sharp. However, the Lord Humungus-grade roof spikes really make this car stand out, both on the rally and, now, in the junkyard. It seemed very clean, with the original owner's manual still in the glovebox. The MSRP on this car came to $41,000 in 1996, which amounts to about $69,000 in 2020 dollars. A new Lexus LS 400 cost $52,900 that year, though the $45,700 Lexus GS 300 was more likely to have battled for the money of potential 3.5 RL buyers. The 1996 Infiniti Q45 went for $53,520, while the J30 cost $39,920. The 1996 BMW 530i had a $42,750 price tag, but your Mitsubishi dealer had $25,525 Diamantes that year. Built on the idea that luxury doesn't have to be boring. Take that, Lexus!
2014 Acura RLX gets trick hybrid all-wheel drive system for LA
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Acura has endured a year of mixed reviews and middling sales for its new RLX flagship. Meanwhile, the Japanese automaker has been readying what may be the very best version of the car for its debut. Now the wait is almost over, as Acura will show its 2014 RLX Sport Hybrid SH-AWD at this year's LA Auto Show.
When it comes to dealerships in the spring of 2014, the RLX Hybrid will be the most powerful production car Acura has ever sold. The combination of a 3.5-liter V6 and three electric motors - a 35-kilowatt motor pushing torque to the front wheels and two 27-kW units feeding the rears - creates a total system output of 377 horsepower.
Those rear-end electric motors do more than just add power, they also drive the rear wheels without a traditional rear drive shaft and differential. This newest iteration of the Super Handling-All Wheel Drive calls upon the two rear motors to both drive and brake the rear wheels, vectoring torque in cornering situations for additional grip. All three electric motors make use of regenerative braking to feed electricity back into the system's 260-volt lithium-ion battery pack.
Acura recalling 43k MDX and RLX models over seatbelt issue
Tue, 14 Oct 2014If you've ever lived in a wintery climate, you may have noticed something strange: no, not the perilously enticing sparkle of cold metal in the sunlight or the way your warm breath suddenly becomes visible in the frigid air, but the way your seatbelt seems increasingly reluctant to retract as the temperature drops. Acura, however, has found the problem more serious than a minor inconvenience, and is recalling some 43,000 vehicles across the United States to address the issue.
The recall in question affects about 7,000 RLX sedans (from the 2014 model year) and another 36,000 MDX crossovers (covering the 2014 and 2015 model years) to have their front seatbelts replaced. In the affected vehicles and in very low temperatures, Acura has found that "the driver's and front passenger's seatbelts may not release from the retracted position." Needless to say, seatbelts that can't be used don't offer any protection in the event of an accident, so the Japanese automaker is notifying owners and dealers to hook up to have those seatbelts replaced.
