1991 Acura Nsx - 38,440 Miles on 2040-cars
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.

Acura NSX production car headed for Detroit debut?
Tue, 23 Oct 2012Auto Express is reporting that Honda is set to unveil the production version of its upcoming Acura NSX at the 2013 Detroit Auto Show. The news comes courtesy of an unnamed "top exec" for Honda Brazil speaking at the Sao Paulo Motor Show. The concept version of the Japanese supercar is currently on display there. Interestingly enough, the same unnamed source claims the production iteration will remain aesthetically identical to the show car. You won't hear any qualms from us on that front.
Of course, the timing of the production debut is a little confusing. For starters, when Acura unveiled the concept last year, the company told the world it would be at least three years before production began. That would give the street-worthy model a 2014 or 2015 designation, the latter being cited more often in media accounts. Thus, we'll keep an eye out for the hybrid supercar in Motown, but we're going to stop short of holding our breath... it might be a while.
Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?
Mon, Feb 27 2017We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
Acura puts on display of mechanical horsepower in new ad
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Originally forged with a brand identity based on luxury, sportiness and practicality, Acura has spent the last decade or so struggling with its image. The sporting credibility suffered a mighty blow with the loss of cars like the Integra, RSX and NSX, and recent years have seen the Japanese company attempting to recast itself as a technology leader.
All of that makes this latest Acura commercial, Let The Race Begin, even more difficult to understand, metaphorically speaking. The horsepower-horse race 'theme' certainly isn't difficult to fathom, with mecca-equine versions of popular luxury brands filling the screen. But the choice to make Acura's filly a flesh-and-blood creation seems odd, for the high-tech theme. Acura as "thoroughbred apart from the rest of the field" seems to be the rough message here, though we're not sure we're buying it. We're also not sure we're comfortable with how much these ponies reminded us of a certain off-putting robotic dog...
Looks expensive, at any rate. Watch the robot ponies run for yourself, below.
