I would say of course it depends on condition, auto vs manual, and ect.. I have seen high mileage NSXs go for $12k-$19k.

i guess depends on mileage, if it's a 150k to 200k miles 91 nsx in ok condition, probably it's below 20k.

but plenty of 100k miles nsx goes for 20+. i think a while ago there was a 02 with 140k miles sold for around 40k. nsx resale is just insane

I have found clean title NSX with high mileage (150k+) for under $20k.

Its been a few years since I went NSX shopping, so I guess maybe the market has changed?

Just checked on Autotrader. I only see one NSX within a 200 miles radius of Los Angeles. $24,000 for a 1991 with 130K miles. The car looks like it spent its life in the hands of a Pepboys specialist.

I see, that was around the time I was shopping for one. Amazing deals back than. I back out because of maintenance cost, and I was planning on buying a house at the time.

There was a time when buyers could possible hold out for the average mileage NSX and get a great deal. The problem is values have gone up, mileage on NSX's have also gone up, so there is a lot less ultra low collector range miles NSX's out there, and attention for the NSX has come back. The collector mileage NSX's cost a lot of money. In today's market right now (Who knows what it will be ) sellers can actually hold out for buyers that are willing to buy at or near there price range. I'm on my 3rd NSX. Selling an NSX has been really easy for me. As a buyer, I've pretty much paid around market value for the most part. My latest NA2 I did pay less than book value, but it was from someone I knew and I paid cash.

video looks like the same clips over and over

hopefully this one won't catch fire, but it certainly looks pretty awesome.

New issue of Road & Track says the new TLX sales have gone insane, so with the money Acura is making from the TLX, the new NSX seem to be on track for 2016 production.

It takes those corners with little drama. Is active suspension wishful thinking?

i'd be surprised if it didn't have some kind of adaptive/active suspension.
