I've cribbed this from a thread on S2Ki, as it's probably of some interest:

I remember a particularly slow day a number of years ago when I added up the cost of all the
NSX components on EPC. Came to a whisker over £443,000 in the end - mind you each alu panel
(wing/Quarter,etc) is around 2k + vat...
Don't clout the front wheels too hard either, a wheel is £1300 + vat, hub £1500, lower arm £1000
and a steering rack £7907....
...Prices seem to have come down a little bit recently - a standard NSX gearlever is now only £326 + vat
whereas the NSX-R version is £468. A lot of the prices seem fairly comparable between the two now apart
from some major componentry - i.e, crank on a standard car is £3645, NSX-R is £4544..
Mind you, at least the rack is unassisted so that is only £1292 for a new one....
...prices were as of this morning on Honda EPC. To be fair, some of the prices do seem to have come
down a bit in the last year or two - now they are merely ridiculous...
So the moral of the story is, if you really, really want an NSX, you can buy one new. You might however prefer a McL and a 911 for shopping instead. And a shedload of change.
