Interesting times in NSX Land.
 

Ever since my friend landed a super clean 91 5 speed for 20k USD a decade ago, I've casually watched the market for NSXs like the rest of you. Some day, some day...

I noticed today: The high end of the market for a low mileage NA2 is closely approaching parity with the lower end of the market for 2nd gen NSXs. I saw 2005 NSX-Ts in the ~150k CAD range, and 2017s in the ~170k range.

It certainly makes me wish at times that I'd opted for a NSX in 2008 instead of the S2000 I loved for 8 years. I'm glad I'm now drinking the NSX Kool-Aid now, though.

I chose university tuition and a CRX over an NSX. Still have the CRX, and a CL-S6. Hopefully the education will fund a project NSX in the next few years.

Hindsight is always 20/20. There are always some great investment asset that we're missing out on (see Bitcoin 2009 to December 2017).

But investing in yourself with higher education usually is a safe bet as it can reap a lifetime of rewards. Best of luck in you achieving your goals!

Also the market is hot right now because of the recent release of the new NSX. I reckon it should start to cool off a bit (though the limited number of the 1G NSX will likely mean that prices will probably never be as low as they were 10 years ago.....)

I'm a high school shop teacher now, so access to cnc equipment and tools and two months off to build cars and do cash work to pay for them!

:thumbsup:

Indeed if one don't mind a bit of imperfection, there are certainly affordable project cars to be had that with some know-how and TLC can give a wonderful driving experience

I strive for a bit of imperfection. Then I don't have to worry if I scratch it a little or put it into the grass at an AutoX event.

Indeed. No garage queen!
