One of the finest NSX's anywhere, adult owned and meticulously pampered!


I am the 3rd owner of this stunning 1998 Berlina Black on Black, adult owned, never tracked, meticulously maintained NSX-T.  I have only owned it for about one year.  I am selling simply because age related issues make it difficult for me to enjoy the car (I'm an old semi-retired optometrist and it's difficult for me to get in and out of the car), but I don't think it should be sitting under cover in my temperature controlled garage. It needs to be driven!!! The car was purchased last year in Plano, Texas where it spent its entire life.  It was serviced there at the same Acura dealer its entire life by one tech (Carl).  A lot of maintenance receipts, parts receipts, and other documentation are available to show just how well this car has been taken car of.  It is a rare automatic, and it is extremely strong and very enjoyable to drive. I realize many of you may prefer a six speed manual but, I think this automatic holds its own and is a blast to drive, and I never had any desire to track it anyway.   It has lots of power, and if you prefer you can use the "power shifter" on the steering column or the on the floor.  New factory OE door grips and handles and knee boltsers were installed last year at a cost of $1500.  It looks and feels brand new to me inside. The car is beautiful cosmetically and mechanically.  There ARE NO ISSUES.  It runs great, sounds great, shifts smooth and with runs with authority. If you want a great handling car along with a lot of attention this is the car for you 

All of the expensive stuff has already been done, and the receipts are available.  Belts, water pump, timing belt, AC service, CV boot, Valve adjustment and cam plugs, transmission service and more.  The previous owner of eight years pampered this NSX, and I have continued to do so while I've owned it. It was recently professionally detailed and it looks amazing.  Oil changes using Mobil one have been done every 3000 miles.  The previous owner had installed new Bridgestones on the rear, the fronts didn't need them.  If you want them, a second set of 4 Bridgestones with the original factory wheels are available.

All of the the typical NSX issues were taken care of.  The factory new climate control and main fuse were attended to.  I have had no mechanical issues with it in the time that I have owned it.  The plugs were changed one year ago. You can buy the car and immediately enjoy it, because it has no issues. The car is a show stopper, and gets unbelievable attention wherever I drive it.  If you don't like being asked questions about your when you drive it, then don't buy this one.   I have all of the original stock parts for the car including the original wheels and set of tires, struts, side skirts, intake, muffler and more. Some after market parts are also available including a nose bra, mirror bra, interior aluminum trim parts,and a satin car cover. The modifications that have been made on the car were tastefully done and are only cosmetic.  They are completely reversible if you are a NSX purist.

The cosmetic mods include the following:

Wings West Side Skirts and Spats, 
JIC Coil Overs adjustable from the top, with fully adjustable height and ride. Rides better than stock
I-Forged 2 piece wheels, black center, polished lip, 17's on front, 18's on rear
Comptech aluminum engine brace
Machined aluminum trim rings around gauges, and extra trim pieces uninstalled
Ark quad tip exhaust and Downforce Air Intake (adds about 10-15 hp)
2 Sets of floor mats, New NSX "R" style red trim
Seats reupolstered with new perforation black leather from Leatherseats,com (original seat covers available)
I-pod and I-pod adapter with USB adapter from Grom. CD changer
Nose/bumper repainted by Acura dealer.  Looks great!


I purchased the car last year, after seeing it on eBay.  I flew to Plano to inspect it, and afterward, I had it delivered to  my home in an enclosed trailer by  a professional classic car transportation company.  I live about 30 miles directly west of Pittsburgh, PA.  Since I have owned the car I have only driven it a little over 400 miles.   An issue that perplexed me and annoyed me after I initially listed it on eBay is the difference in the rating score given by Autocheck this year compared to last year.  Last year on eBay it was rated a 97 and this year its lower, and I don't understand why.  There are no issues with the car that have occurred within the last year. It makes no sense to me because  the only notable change from last year to this year is an additional owner (me) and about 400 additional miles on the odometer.  I have probably pampered the car even more than the other two owners.  It looks even nicer than when I bought it.  This NSX is definitely still above range vs. similar 1998 sports cars.  It is upper premium, and its a heck of lot easier to maintain than some of the other exotics.  

That's basically the story of my NSX.  Again, the car is in excellent condition mechanically and cosmetically, but it is fifteen years old and is being sold "As Is" with no warranties written or implied.   If you look hard enough you might find a couple of minor flaws, but I don't think you'll find a nicer one for sale that has been pampered and serviced like this one.

If you or a representative would like to inspect the vehicle, please contact me to make arrangements. If you're serious about the car and you need additional information you can reach me by phone at (304) 491-2020.  If I'm examining a patient or otherwise unable to take your call, leave your number and I will return your call as soon as possible.  The NSX is listed for sale locally and in other venues; therefore, I retain the right to remove the eBay listing if it is no longer available.  Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day.

Rare 1999 Acura NSX Zanardi Edition sells for $135,000

Thu, Apr 9 2020

Somebody just bought a 1999 Acura NSX Zanardi Edition for $135,000 on Bring a Trailer. And to that we say, we’re jealous. The Zanardi Edition is one of the more sought-after NSX models out there. Acura only ever sold 51 of them (named after racer Alex Zanardi), and they were sold during a time that nearly every NSX sold here was an NSX-T with the T-top. The hardtop Zanardi Edition features a number of performance improvements over a typical 1999 NSX. Acura took a sizable chunk of weight out of the car. Versus a hardtop coupe, itÂ’s about 54 pounds lighter. Compared to the more popular NSX-T, itÂ’s 149 pounds lighter. This was done in a few ways, but the single biggest weight reduction was due to the power steering delete, making it more like the older NSXs that never had power steering. Lightweight BBS wheels, a lighter battery, single-pane rear glass and a lighter rear spoiler also helped to reduce weight. It received a “racetrack-tuned suspension” that was considerably stiffer than the regular NSX. The shocks, springs and bushings were all revised, and Acura lowered the ride height (0.6 inch in front, 0.3 inch in rear). A stiffer and larger rear stabilizer bar was fitted, too. The Zanardi Edition is rather distinctive looking because of its New Formula Red paint and dark BBS wheels. Acura added red stitching to the all black interior, and owners also got to use a sweet titanium shift knob. And of course, thereÂ’s a special edition plaque on the interior to officially declare it a Zanardi.  Acura did nothing to the engine or transmission. Therefore, it retains the 3.2-liter V6 (290 horsepower and 224 pound-feet of torque) and six-speed manual. We donÂ’t get to see many Zanardi Editions go up for sale, but when they do, they get the big bucks. At 57,000 miles, this one is still on the low side, hence the $135,000 final bid. A regular (albeit newer) 2004 NSX-T with 1,900 miles just sold for $133,000 earlier today. So yeah Â… NSX values donÂ’t seem to be going anywhere but up these days. Related video:

Honda recalls 2.23 million vehicles to replace Takata inflators

Thu, Feb 4 2016

The Basics: Honda and Acura will recall 2.23 million vehicles in the US. The affected models are: 2005-2012 Acura RL 2007-2011 Honda CR-V 2007-2016 Acura RDX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) 2007-2014 Honda Ridgeline 2009-2014 Honda Fit 2009-2014 Acura TL 2010-2014 Honda FCX Clarity 2010-2014 Honda Insight 2010-2013 Acura ZDX 2011-2015 Honda CR-Z 2013-2016 Acura ILX (early production MY 2016 vehicles only) The Problem: These vehicles have Takata's PSDI-5 airbag inflator on the driver's side, and this part could rupture if the airbag deploys. Injuries/Deaths: There are no reported ruptures of the PSDI-5 inflator in Honda or Acura vehicles. However, Takata's exploding components have links to at least 10 deaths worldwide because they can spray shrapnel at occupants. The Fix: Honda and Acura dealers will replace the inflators with parts from an alternative supplier. If You Own One: The repairs will begin this summer. Owners will receive a letter notifying them about the recall within 60 days and will get a second message when the parts are available. The company will prioritize older models in high-humidity regions first because these inflators would be most likely to rupture. More Information: Honda and Acura have now recalled 8.51 million vehicles in the US to replace their driver or passenger side inflators. This latest expansion came in the wake of a driver death from an airbag rupture in a Ford Ranger. Ford and Mazda already enlarged their safety campaigns. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also announced Audi, BMW, Daimler Vans, Mercedes-Benz, Saab, and Volkswagen would have recalls for this issue, too. Statement by American Honda Regarding Nationwide Recall of Certain Takata PSDI-5 Driver Front Airbag Inflators Feb 3, 2016 - TORRANCE, Calif. Approximately 2.23 million Takata PSDI-5 driver front airbag inflators will require replacement in Honda and Acura vehicles in the U.S. No PSDI-5 inflator ruptures have been reported in Honda or Acura vehicles Takata inflators will be replaced with parts from an alternative supplier with repairs beginning in the Summer of 2016 Based on a recent Defect Information Report (16E-005) from the airbag inflator supplier, Takata, Honda will conduct a national recall (16V-061) of approximately 2.23 million Honda and Acura vehicles in the United States to replace, free of charge to vehicle owners, the PSDI-5 Takata driver front airbag inflators installed in those vehicles.
