You may have done this already, but if you haven't you might want to spend some time on nsxprime. There is a wealth of knowledge there including some good wiki's on what to look for when purchasing.

$18K for a 91 with 65K miles on it throws up red flags with me. It could be the deal of the century, but more than likely something is up. I just bought my 2nd NSX, a 92 with 47K miles on it for $32K. People might say I over paid, but this is my 2nd one and I know exactly what I was getting into.

I would seriously go over that NSX with a fine tooth comb. Normally, a 91 in good condition with 65K miles on it would go for $28K-$32K bone stock.

If I didnt need my X5, I would sell it in a heartbeat and get a 90's NSX. This Veilside NSX is ****.

I think the NSX Veilside kit got nothing on the Madonna NSX kit. This is the best looking widebody kit on the NSX, imo !!

NSX supply is limited and when you see one you want, you have to jump on it right away or someone else will. Don't let a few hundred/thousand dollars stand between you and your happiness if it's the car that you really want because it will take a long long time to find another one that you want.

How can you have an "awesome' NSX thread without having sound clips of NSXs with aftermarket exhausts? Seeing one is one thing, but hearing it is another!
