:no:

 

 

Just love the NSX:thumbup1:Great cars mate.

Remember you need to be subed to sell the 300zx on here but good luck with the sale.

That is one stunning NSX. Bet u gonna miss that :(

Just out of interest, how much did you get for it?

lmao, I was gonna ask that lol. sure others were too lol, ur just more ballsy lmao

Man I would've given my left ball for that NSX. Or at least financed myself to the hilt! :wub:

a 2004 with 25K miles sold 2 weeks ago on Pistonheads for £49K

 

...and that's a lot of spondulees. bit of a frenzy going on, with a lot of interested buyers of low mileage '03s -'05s and only 1 or 2 going up for sale each year.

 

so although it felt sooo wrong, it had to be done. only time will tell if I made a crap decision.

WOW £49k, that is alot of spondulees. You could buy a GTR now...

Even if you had 2 GTRs they still wouldnt have what that Honda has....

That is true

I think the NSX is just the ultimae car when it comes to drivability, but you cant say its better than 2 new GTRs. the new GTR is insanely fast, with incredible handling, granted it is replaced every decade or so, and will never hold value vs the NSX, they do hold their money vs most other cars, very well.

 

still. I wouldnt sell a mint NSX for a new GTR. As the new GTR will lose money over the next 5 or 6 years like a brick in dropping in the ocean. Financially its a suicide mission. But if selling an NSX means being able to pay of a mortgage or something, then it is a wise decision, especially with current interest rates.

 

Hope you sold it for the right reasons, in which case you wont ever regret it, although you are guaranteed to miss it.

 

You got something else eyed up? or you taking a break from fuel guzzlers? lol

going into paying off a max'd credit card and rest into mortgage. tbh. didn't want to say it as it's so borring.

but it will reduce payments and with prices at an all time high, seemed like a sensible thing to do.

 

but I will say. I drove the NSX all weekend and into London on Sunday. I had a tubi style exhaust on mine and can say every time i went through the gears I was literally drooling at the sound it made.

 

GTR: got side by side a new white one outside Harrods leaving town... at a light we both dropped a couple gears and launched. I don't think there is much in it between 30 and 90 miles an hour.... NOT that we did this nor would... ;) just a gut feel.

stunning NSX, and well you already know im a fan of your zed as well.

Nsx is a proper car and the gtr is well just pig ugly. yes its fast blah blah but thats all its got going for it.

 

Look at this GTR :xxx: NSX proper machine :drool:

 

 

Yes mate NSX is a stunner, like I said wouldnt sell one for a GTR. But trying to say the GTR is a modern day legend in its own right. Got to admit though, thats not the most flattering pic of a GTR lol - thats the difference NSX looks gorgeous from all angles.

WOW £49k, that is alot of spondulees. You could buy a GTR now...

 

Boomin said that "a" 2004 [nsx] sold on PH for £49k 2 weeks ago.......

 

....not that he got £49k for his car.....! I guess his answer means "none of our business"...LOL

I guessed that Richard, thats why i didnt bring the subject back up lol.

Good side by side comparison there Dave......

 

......TBH I'm not sure which one I would chose. I have always loved the NSX, but would I buy one? Maybe; there are 2 on Auto Trader right now for £16k and £26k with reasonable miles on them.....

 

.....and, whilst the GTR is not the prettiest car, it is still an awesome piece of kit - better than the R32, R33 and R34 by miles IMO - but would I buy one? Possibly - although I can think of other (albeit lesser capable) cars that I would still prefer to splash out the thick end of £50k on!

 

Richard:rockon:

R34gtr Vspec 2 nismo is the jap daddy and looks evil. The R35 is just a big fat blob imo its just to big.

I guessed that Richard, thats why i didnt bring the subject back up lol.

 

naw... was out a nando's celebrating?? the sale of the car.

 

anyway, promised the guy I wouldn't tell anyone the price. he's a regular on the nsxcb site and asked me not to tell people who he was, nor how much he paid. so want to honour that promise.

 

I spoke to another guy today who had a 2003 with 51K miles who was thinking about putting his up for around £44K. mine sold between the two prices :)

 

personally, I was predicting that we are in a little bubble right now and that when all the French, Greece and Spain(next) crap, [didn't the news say recently that the UK is back in recession?] hits the fan that prices on cars like the NSX will drop. I could be 100% wrong... but made a decision and went with it at a time when MOT, TAX and Insurance were up for renewal...

 

time with tell.

i was in a nissan showroom last weekend looking at the GTR . £75000 was the price on the window

That's a gorgeous nsx dude. one of the cars on my "must own" list, but the money it takes to get a good one means its a bit out of budget at the moment!

 

FWIW, I reckon you're probably right about getting it sold at the best time financially...

Now I know Rob and he's a savy fellow, so i am sure that the decision was the right one, but having had the pleasure of seeing this car a couple of times in the flesh, I can only echo what those before have said with regards to how devastatingly beautiful the NSX is. Last time I saw this car was outside a very nice golf club parked up next to Astons, Jags and Porkers, and it just put them all to shame. Absolutely iconic bit of design, coupled with some awesome performance has made the NSX one of my all time favorites.

 

I guess you have been getting all your kicks from snowboarding mate so need for a road rocket?

heya Paul.. glad you responded as I want to get in tough for a rematch. ;) I've played two rounds since I've been back 31 points and then 22 pts on sunday... anyway, I don't have your number, give me a call.

 

- yep, a number of reasons were mounting. fact that I'm planning on going back for 4 months next season, trying to buy a very small flat out there etc, all weighed in as well..

 

That picture I took yesterday is EVIL though... every time I look at it, I just end up wanting to hit myself in the face ;)

on a side note. NSXs. truly an amazing bit of engineering with the Looks to accompany.

 

 

If you ever get serious about getting one. I personally would only go for a 3.2 litre. All the 3.0 litre owners will say that there isn't much in it. But the 3.2s are 6 speed and just a bit more torque'y and also have more to give when the VTEC kicks in.

 

it will mean the difference of £5K - £7K but in my opinion they will hold their values long term enough to warrant the extra wedge.

 

Also... don't even think about buying in the Spring/Summer unless you see some stonking deal pop up. The deals to be had are generally between Sept/Oct and January.

 

I've seen an easy £3K - £7K difference in prices betwee low and high season. ;)

Saw this pic, and thought of this thread:
