My dad has always dreamed of owning an NSX, he loved how it looked and was definately looking at purchasing one (manual of course!). After countless NSX's got sold on carsales within a few days of being posted up, this black one went
up for sale. It was a black 1992 model which was manual with a few tasteful mods with 28X,XXXkms and asking price of $70,000. At first my dad thought it was too expensive for the km's it had travelled. Being a NSX, it had dissapeared
from carsales the next day.
Thinking that it had sold, we were left waiting for the next manual NSX to pop up. With 6 months going by with no luck, i had a chat with Cambo (Freekygeek), and we were talking about NSX's, and he brought up this black one that he knew about and it turns out it was the black NSX that i missed out on carsales due to the km's being too high. So i asked him about it and he got me in contact with the owner and we started talking. One thing led to
another and that same weekend i was at his house checking out the car.
The car was amazing, it wasn't perfect but being a NSX that had been driven and not just sitting in a garage collecting dust just to keep the km's low justified the
condition of the car, for the km's travelled on the car it was in great condition, and as soon as my dad saw it, he didn't even mind the high km's on the car anymore and he just wanted to own it, the owner had fixed up quite alot of things
since his ownership which i was glad were done. Things like fixing the electric seat, A/C, trims, etc. The owner also added a few tasteful mods to the car which involved Taitec headers coupled with a RFY exhaust which made it sound AMAZING!
Tein coilovers with EDFC controller and double din headunit. When he took me for a test drive my mind was blown at how good it sounded and how comfortable it felt and how nice the exhaust system sounded. I asked him if he would sell it with my dads 32 GTR with cash on top, and he told me that he would need to think about it. Having my dad help me own my dream car which was my R34 GTR, i decided to give the money from the sale of the GTR that i had left aside to put towards a deposit for a house so he could buy his dream car knowing that it would make him very happy.
1 week later i went back to his house again. But this time it was all happening, it was time to take ownership of the NSX. Seeing my dad so excited and happy makes me extremely lucky to have him as a dad.
The day i picked it up
I've got a few things planned for this car, nothing crazy, but things that will restore the car and add a few things that would improve the car along the way.
The first thing me and my dad wanted to do was get the car resprayed. We decided to bring it down to Sharpline which did Rolands' (ROLZ) NSX.
Got a quote and we left the car there. When it was done it looked amazing, turned out great and fresh.
The next step is to get the car detailed
and to apply paint protection on the car so it protects the paint and keeps it silky smooth
That's it for now
