Thinking of getting this NSX
1992 NSX - Sebring Silver
I'm thinking of getting an NSX as a weekend car. What do you guys think of this one... Is there anything I should look out for when getting one?

sweet car. ive thought about that for acouple years now, ive been tossing between a C5, a Supra, or a nsx. i just cant decide but next summer im getting one of them (im leaning toward the C5 though)

Seems like he has everything covered but the only thing i would find out is a detailed report of how the snap ring range problem was taken care of . if you go to NsxPrime.com and search there FAQ on this subject you will see there is a proper way to fix this and a short cut method which isnt really a fix. As for the car not being worth it because its 12 years old i can tell you that a well maintained Nsx is as good as a new one without the cost. Ive had mine for nine years now without a problem except regular maintaince. If I was you I would make a post on NsxPrime as there are people there who are more qualified to help you screen out this car then me....good luck with your decision. Mine is a 91 by the way.

I'm dead serious. You need to know how to drive before you get that one.

I've driven one and got arrested in it LOL. It's a little underpowered for my tastes but handles like a go kart. I love the shifter and the quality of the interior. you can't fit jack in the glove compartment though. I agree with it being a little pricey. I would buy a used Supra or a Vette instead

Come on.... If this kid will tell the truth, I'd be happy to move on....
Quite frankly, the joke is getting old to me, too.

It is a lot of money but then again those cars are still in demand
If you have the free cash, go for it, I sure would!

i wouldnt spend that much for a 10+ yr old car
especially if i only made 40k yr...
at the same time... if you wanna blow your money... you probably wont lose much on the investment over the next year.

Emu........... if hes got a cosigner he can certainly make the payments.
Not the smartest thing the kid could do... but he could theoretically do it if he had no other bills

I shoot people
too bad you can't rewind time.... cause about a year ago... I knew someone that had a 92' with only 25k miles on it!!! with Volk wheels, but he was asking for $35k, and he sold it for that within' a week.

i dunno about the price but to me, buying a NSX is like buying a piece of history! I love that car even though the design is very old! I'm not sure about THAT NSX but if I were you I'd definitely get the NSX!
