All NSX are imports ... what a knob whoever wrote this.
Why do people appear to have some "negative" viewpoint on a JDM car?
its not the 1st time i have seen something similar


"This is a UK supplied car from new and not a Japanese Import"

[britlude]

not sure why either, because the JDM cars got all the goodies first! they all came off exactly the same production line!

showing as sold.. but mentioning the number plate is by separate negotiation is a bit tight

It's like UK car can't have been crashed, clock or ragged to death. From a logical perpective. Cars imported from JP later in life are generally much better condition than their UK counterparts.
These dealers are often as clueless as the people who write the buyers guides.
What used to wind me up was; 1. As discussed, the UK car inferences. 2. Bloody provenance. Especially from so called specialists, who if they were honest would say anything to move their stock. And 3. The Senna connection. It's just painful.
It all seems a bit funny and inconsequential now.

Cheers.

Having bought a new Civic VTi and S2000 in Belgium, I am well used to hearing such tripe from the ignorati.

Having witnessed the state of some of these JDM imports, it almost seems a shame to bring them here where they may be comprehensively trashed in a short period.

"Best on the market"?!?

I suppose if you've little to make your comparison against it's easy to think that a 20y.o. car that's been cherished, has a straight body, no colour-mismatches and FSH can be "best" (esp. when you look at the average 20y.o. car)

...but then you hang around the community and realise that's just average condition for an NSX.



Alternatively, in this case it's just advertising BS...

[nobby]

yeah, saw this one as well ... and this from an owner of the car as well. Clearly has no understanding of NSX production or what Automotive homologation means

glad you laughed, just frustrated me, could not click of the ad fast enough

All of what you say is true but there will always be a premium paid by 'the market' for 'UK cars'. Not just NSX, any car.

Buyers are rightly or wrongly, comforted by the fact that a car has a full UK history, a speedo that reads in miles per hour, no accident history that can be traced, MOT history etc etc etc.

If you had two identical cars side by side and one was a 'UK car' and one was JDM, the UK car would sell first, every time - which leads to a modest premium. It might be tragic, but it's reality.

How do you trace accident history? If this site has taught me anything it's that accident history is rife on these cars, but often not registered. People put them back together. Badly I might add. Then the dealers sell them on. And the general public deserve what they get because despite the monkey arsed questions they always ask, about Senna and original paintwork, they don't have a clue what they're looking at.
One might also consider the hefty premium customers pay for those cars not available in the UK as official imports. Furthermore, and no disrespect to the 'eurosmile' , but it's an abomination! The Japanese one is much nicer aesthetically. The lack of headlight washers also.
I'm not totally disagreeing. But anyone in their right mind would take the car on it's merits. Not the word of a dealer who doesn't understand what he's selling either.

Cheers. .

A badly repaired car can be detected quite easily on the NSX even by an average buyer.

Nowadays, a potential buyer has much more sources to check out any car than 20 years ago. If he doesn't make use of them noone can help him.

Most cars at the dealers in Switzerland are way overpriced and are (will be) sitting there for ages. They are waiting for a dummy to fall for their discount battle.
You can identify the private owners who are really willing to sell by their reasonable asking price.

Information, patience and time will always result in a better decision. The impatient buyer (not willing to listen to others or to calm down) will always pay more and might get a wreck, regardless whatever he buys: car, house, wife (lol).

Agree. If you don't do/get the right checks. You are to blame. But much more difficult with wife! It's my experience having owned Nine NSX's and sold seven, that the average buyer doesn't even look at the car. They see it is shiny, then hand over the money.
Regarding dealers. There is an inference that the car they are selling has been properly checked over. But that's not what I've seen. I would rate the specialists as the main culprits. This compounded by the UK car stupidity and you can see why it winds people up.

Agree. It was easier 20 years ago when the first batch of first owner's car came on the market. Most official Honda dealers would not have burnt his fingers with a 'problematic' car back then. This was some sort of a guarranty for the buyer. But even the problematic cars found a new home. But some of them have been exported too and sold where they are now. Nowadays...too many years, too many owners.

Buying a car IS a very emotional thing. It was the same for me back then (in the middle of the rush hour of life :)). But man has been given a ratio too.

I use to overread/ignore whatever the dealer/salesman says/claims. He's a trained professional who knows how to turn on any scrap he has. If I interact with him 1:1 he has me right there where he wants me to and I'd always loose against him. All the marketing bla bla bla is somekind of amusing sometimes.
