Want a full JDM-ified NSX but don't want to hack one up? This wild widebodied first-gen is calling your name.

The car has some nice mechanical mods, but the body is a non-starter. They've taken a nice car, dumped a lot of money into it and destroyed the car's resale value. I get that many people will say "It's my car and I plan to keep it" but unless you plan on it also serving as your eventual coffin then there will come a day when you WILL care about the price it will fetch in a sale. Yes, there are guys out there who like the mods, and if the owner can find someone who fancies this car then he will have dodged a bullet. I've read on BaT that this car has been on and off the market for a number of years. Will be interesting to see the final selling price.

Looks just like a cheap fiberglas kit car body stuck on a Pontiac Fiero carcass

Anyone know what the resale value is on RWB Porsches? The subjective opinion is that it is arguably much better done than this NSX, but technicalities say that it's really no different than this monstrosity...

Eight replies for a Curated Content Editor post! Unheard of! True, they're all negative, but I hope this doesn't encourage him or her!
