(I know JDRF is here, looking for the artificial pancreas)

 Leather in the backseat shows NO wear, the front have custom covers, specifically made for this make and model.  I LOVE this car, third one I've had and I hate to part with it.  I am waiting on a kidney transplant and will be off work for probably 3 months, so I need the money.  Please ask questions before bidding.  Non paying bidders will be reported to ebay.  PLEASE do not bid prior to contacting me if you have lower than 10 feedback or lower than 98%.  Prefer CASH at pick up.  It will be COMPLETELY up to seller to make arrangements, I will not take the vehicle more than five miles from 60462.  When I purchased vehicles thru ebay, I flew and drove home.

Dual heated seats, cruise control, climate control (set temperature), wind blocker for moon roof.  Back tires are about 3 yr old, less than 4000 miles, front have 50-70% left.  Yes, timing belt replaced at 81K in October 2004, at that time also water pump and C belt, I think means A/C.  Oil changed every spring when I take out and every fall before I put away for winter.  About every 1000-2000 miles. 

I am the second owner of this beauty.  There is not one spec of rust on it.  If you love these cars like I do, you know they are know to rust at wheel wells and trunk, but this beautiful car has NONE.  I only drive in the summer on sunny days, not to go shopping or park anywhere risky.  In the winter I start about every 3 days.  In summer I drive it 1-2 x a week.  Has not seen snow or rain since mid 2009; not sure if first owner drove year round.  I have all the original service records from the original owner.

***If you are purchasing for your sole use, I'd like to keep your info and possibly buy the car back in 1-2 years.***

Reliving the Acura NSX debut, 25 years later

Sat, 03 May 2014

The Acura NSX might be one of the most important Japanese cars ever created. The Land of the Rising Sun had already established that it could make very competent performance vehicles when the NSX debuted in 1989, but Honda's two-seater was the first one that looked to the world like a true contender against Ferrari and Porsche, thanks to its cutting-edge technology. The Acura had an all-aluminum monocoque chassis, a beautifully low-slung body and a quick-revving V6 with an 8,000-rpm redline. This quintessential Japanese sports coupe celebrates its 25th anniversary this year, and Autoweek recognizes it in a fantastic piece chronicling the model's US launch.
The story begins in February 1989 at the Chicago Motor Show where the car debuted. The day before the show opened, the concept still didn't have a name. The Japanese development team referred to it as New Sports, and the American Acura executives decided to add eXperimental to the end. The moniker NSX just stuck afterwards.
The article paints a fantastic portrait of the car and the company at the time. Honda had something to prove with the NSX. To succeed, the coupe had to be the best, and when the American press finally got a hold of it, they drowned it in accolades. Of course, Acura has a new American-built NSX on the way, and it has colossal legacy to live up to. This piece is definitely worth reading to understand why.

Powerball winner's first purchase will be used Acura NSX off Craigslist

Thu, 08 Aug 2013

We don't play the lottery very often, but when we do, even a five-dollar win is cause for celebration. So we can't possibly imagine how Paul White from Minnesota is feeling after scoring a third of this week's $448 million Powerball jackpot. It has to be an overwhelming experience, but we think he's going to end up handling it well if his first press conference is any indication.
Like some of us, White has a pretty reasonable idea of what his first purchase is, and boy, is it a good one: an early Acura NSX. Yes, this man has class. Rather than run out and buy a clichéd Rolls-Royce or Lamborghini, his first instinct is to go pick up a $30,000 Acura that he has been eyeing on Craigslist for months. It's enough to make us wonder if he'll use his winnings to get on the list for one of Acura's new NSXs when they finally come around in 2015.
Watch White describe what it is about the NSX that makes heart skip a beat in the press conference video from USA Today below (note: video autoplays).

Acura NSX bodywork to be sheathed in zirconium e-coat, fewer paint layers

Tue, 05 Aug 2014

Automakers make halo cars to drum up excitement and show off what they can do, but there's more to it than that. Advanced platforms allow a company's engineers to experiment with all sorts of technologies. And in the case of the upcoming new Acura NSX, that includes new paint processes.
Speaking with Autoline in this video interview, Honda's North American Senior VP Jon Minto talked about an innovative zirconium e-coat which it's applying to the new NSX. Unlike some experimental paints developed for Formula One, however, this coating is not designed to minimize drag or enhance cooling: it's designed to be more environmentally friendly.
It's one of a few measures which Honda is implementing on the NSX before expanding it to more accessible models, along with another process that uses fewer coats to reduce energy consumption by 40 percent. Watch the interview with Autoline host John McElroy right here.
