I understand NSX is dubbed "everyday supercar"

I see one parked at work often, never got to speak to the owner

but if I had that immaculate Zanardi it'd be 2% summer cruise and 98% garage queen

hats off to anyone who puts their high-end sports cars on the circuit...hope you have good insurance for track days.

Is there any insurance company willing to insure for track? I heard they might insure you if you go through approved driver training school with your car.

I'd feel much safer on a closed course with any car rather than on the street. At least on the track, if something happens, it's most likely the fault of the driver or a mechanical error. The thought of some jerk-off crashing into me because they are not paying attention is the #1 fear for most that cherish their car.

This scares me more than anything:

I understand values of the NSX has increased over time, but when I had my NSX, it was my daily driver

The local NSX club in my area (I was living in San Jose at the time) had numerous group track days together, quite often. I never had the opportunity to track my NSX when I owned it, but I would have, at least once.

I don't think any car provides much value if you don't use it for something.

^^ with the very rare "5 ever built cars" i absolutely agree with garage queening them. but as long as a few museums have pristine examples of rare cars (for history's sake) then i see no reason the rest shouldnt be driven and enjoyed. thats where a Jay Leno comes into play (large collection, might not be driven often but its not from the lack of want)

You can't take a car with you when you die. Better to build up memories with the car before it's too late.

no love for da integras in the collection hall :(

^^They probably just haven't found a clean enough example to acquire. As a Honda head, this place and the secret Honda museum in Cali are bucket list destinations for me. Invite only to either though as they are not open to open to the public.

Hmmm, feelers. Anyone interested in purchasing my Azect Side Skirts and Rear lip?

Rear lip fits: 94-97 rear bumpers.

Side skirts are molded to a factory stock one for rigidity and allows for oem installation. (clips underneath etc)

does it come with the car? :D

Hey guys what do ITR wheels and tires go for these days considering the sky rocketed price of the car itself? Both white and GM.

tofu1413 03-11-2017 09:27 AM

locally been $500-$1000 dependent on condition for USDM 15"

VRYALT3R3D 03-11-2017 10:18 AM

So how much would these be worth:

-Stock Canadian ITR with 180k, stock, flawless condition
-JDM ITR with 45k, stock, auction grade 4B

CDM - dependent on year, 2001 worth the most, but should be $15-$20k dependent on condition.

at 180k km im skeptical its all original "flawless"


JDM - $10-$15k landed probably. has to be mint and bone stock and have a floor pan so clean you can eat off of it.

Espec I pmed you a week ago and no response re ITR wheels

Vryal: Need to know years and pics to show condition. Are all VIN present on the CDM ITR?

E-SPEC 03-11-2017 04:53 PM

I have white ones with Dunlop SP-Sport 9000's. The grey ones aren't in the greatest condition and tires.

Nice caR, definitely not "flawless" cosmetically. Also vin tags are missing on front fenders.

VR6GTI 03-11-2017 07:38 PM

Not stock aswell
