tooquicktostop Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Way ahead of its time, superb engine and handling, quite rare and a cult car in Japan so not as many imports coming over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Maybe the Senna connection?, agree it commands a hefty price tag, a great looking car though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Its rare... and umm its got good handling ability, umm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 It hasnt had the chav influence dropping its prices like the Supra had, and its a hi output NA engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Thats what i thought not alot other than "wow never seen one of them before" I would guess getting one fixed would be killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lebsteif Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 maintenance for a NSX comes with a hefty pricetag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 MId engined too. int'it? Like a proper sports car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 It also came with an Auto box option (not like a propper sports car ) The Senna inluence deffo pushed the price tag/image up, but to me I'd only want to trader for the NSX-R models if I was really serious about having one. I do love them looks wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyT Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 The owners club turned up in force at Japfest. A LOT of NSX's to drool at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hadyn Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Yeah I wonder how badly the 1990s Chav icon/Maxpower influence has affected the mkiv Supra when compared to say an NSX in this country... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
far Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 yeah I' ve been waiting for them to go down in price for ages now - seem to hang on to their value pretty well. Agreed, NSX-R or at the very least a late model 3.2 targa. early 3.0's are affordable now but I wouldnt want one. If I had the option I would actually get a newish 911 - they are German Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 it does seem to have hurt it a lot. I mean the supe is a bit like the Jap mustang in terms of the amount of aftermarket parts yet a mustang dosnt get the chav crowd... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chiefgroover Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 So many dog rough Supras were shipped here from Japan, AND Supras got all the chav stuff thrown at them, any wonder their values are weak. When is the last time you saw a chavved NSX? Does make me think, if there never had been imports, what would UK Supras be worth now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopite Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Didn't Winston Wolf drive one in Pulp Fiction? He was cool so probably upped the value a bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted December 26, 2007 Author Share Posted December 26, 2007 Interesting what would have happened had the NSX become the FF car and the supra had remained unmolested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted December 26, 2007 Share Posted December 26, 2007 Hand made aluminium panels add to the cost somewhat. Or was it hand put-together? Can't remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Bump after a year, Still these things demand huge prices, for less BHP than my TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2o2 Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Its not all about the bhp imo. Would be nice to be able to afford an NSX , had a look at them at the local Honda dealership a few years ago - silly money though . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 The dont overly look great IMO they are a pig to service and cost huge amounts in insurance. Sorry still dont get it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
