When I first bought the car, I told anyone and everyone that I would never sell it. Unfortunately, due to my 60 mile round trip commute and now having a Tesla Model X with autopilot, the NSX hardly gets any driving time. Since buying it at 113,000 miles, I have put on only about 3,000 miles. I'm sad but this car definitely needs a new home with someone that will be able to drive it a lot more than I was able to.
I am the 5th owner. The previous owner was from Newport Beach, CA and purchased the car in 2005 with 64k miles.Previous owner maintained regular maintenance with Ramon at Niguel Motors. Timing belt, Valve adjustment, and replaced all hoses at 69k miles. Newly replaced items by previous owner include: Brake master cylinder, Clutch, Coolant overflow tank, Premium Paint job in original white color, new OEM Windshield and Rear Light assemblies installed with paint, clear bra in front installed after paint so No paint chips! Engine cover surface treatment. I bought it at roughly 113,000 miles and at 114,000, I replaced the timing belt, water pump, tensioner, crank pulley, cam plugs, oil filter, fuel filter, AC compressor belt, NGK spark plugs, as well as the main relay (no prior issue with it - just changed it out). Oil change was done with Royal Purple 10W30 as well as a coolant flush. Smog check just passed on 1/29/18 and good for 90 days.
The car came with NSX-R chassis bars, NSX-R front sway bar, NSX-R badging, Late model lower rear valence, Zeal coil-over suspension (corner balanced), Powdercoated & forged Prodrive ultra-lite racing wheels, Tai Tec GT Parallel exhaust in stainless steel, quick rev 7 lb. Fidanza flywheel, short shift kit, and a custom aluminum shift knob. Since purchasing it, I have added JDM Honda center tail light, installed HID headlights, SOS interior door handles, Carbon fiber dash and door overlays, added titanium lug nuts, Downforce NSX-R Carbon Fiber spoiler, Honda branded airbag, Chrome oil cap cover (SOS), Carbon fiber valve cover (SOS), stubby antenna, replaced engine hatch and trunk struts, and LED interior lights. In addition, the windows were both functioning fine but I had the window regulators fixed during HugaBuga's Socal window fix tour. The leather covers on the seats were replaced with new covers as well as the BOSE subwoofer amp.
The car runs great and is in superb condition. Previous owner said he had the car re-sprayed and had a clear bra installed on the front portion of the car which is still intact. No leaks, no rust (except for the hood latch piece on the hood). Windows roll up and down perfectly. Car pulls hard - as it should and no other known mechanical issues. Interior is 9/10. Everything is clean with no cracks or rips on any of the leather. Headliner is in good condition with only one of the visors starting to bulge a little bit.
The (not so) bad: Exterior is a 8.5/10 with a few minor issues. There are two areas on the exterior where there is damage. On the driver’s door, there are some paint chips on the edge. Previous owner said he backed the car out with the door slightly open and hit something. I never got around to fixing it. On the lower part of the rear bumper, there is a small dent. Other than that, the exterior is perfectly clean! Although I replaced the BOSE Sub amp, the radio is still kind of finicky. All speakers work but occasionally there is some static. To be honest, I never use the radio so it never bothered me. The suspension is tight with the ZEAL coilovers but there is a rattle coming somewhere from the front but I have not been able to locate the issue but it does not affect the suspension or the driving of the car. Tires will probably need to be replaced soon.
If you have any questions that I haven't answered, please feel free to message me. I'm not in a rush to sell but would love to have it go to a good home. Car is located in Torrance, CA and we can arrange for an in person showing if you are interested. Car will be listed on other sites so I will end the auction early it it sells sooner.
