It's only worth buying as a collector's item. If you're looking to drive something fun and go fast, there are other options which make a lot more financial sense. Heck, that's the primary reason why I bought an S2000. For the price I paid, I honestly don't think you can find anything more fun and reliable.

i had a blue 2005 with black interior... that brown interior is yucky.... i sold mine with 20k miles on it for $63k or so in 2007... for some reason i bet they want $70k.... I would not pay anything.... they are not that fast (i drag raced mine to a 13.5 best run out of 4 runs... my evo was faster)...i think after having it floored for several miles it said 169 on the speedo.... (current car does that in about 22 seconds..lol)....

they still look nice but otherwise nothing exciting...i would only buy it if it were a bargain then try to flip it...

You’d have to a ton of “value” into the exclusivity. For me, if I kind of abstracted the price based on the performance, age, original price, etc., it’s a $35K-40K car ... of course factoring in the rarity, production numbers, it’s a $65K+ car (and I know the latter scenario is the real world consideration, just sayin’ )

Agree with right around $70K.

Even though it is an NSX, the car is still 7 years old. The 20 year olds are going for $25k-$35k. I'd say this should be around $50k. Paying anything north of that is just not worth it as others have mentioned, there are a lot of cars with more power and features for that price range.

Also would you be paying cash? B.c I'm pretty sure you won't be able to get a loan @ a decent rate for a 7 yr. old car. Id only buy this car if 1. I loved the NSX & 2. i had cash to buy it.

NSX pricing annoys the hell out of me. They are good cars but they were also designed in the late 80s / early 90s and there is so much more available for so much less money spent.

It's also annoying because I want one. And I can't afford one.

Exactly the way I feel! Frustrating!

Might as well save the pennies for 3 years until the new one comes out.
The new one will surely be north of 100k, no? I think this one may sell for around 55k.
not likely, 2000s are going for $52,000 - $55,000 or more. This one will probably be close to the price it was new. The NSX in general is a rare car. Only 3381 brought into the US for the entire run from 1990(1991 model) until the last car. I am not a fan of the Halogens so I would not make an offer, Ide prefer an 00 - 02 with flip up lights.
