Doug's Take
The original Acura NSX is a legendary Japanese sports car that offers gorgeous styling, fantastic handling, and a high-revving, mid-mounted V6. This particular example touts low mileage and some great factory equipment, including a 5-speed manual transmission, a limited-slip differential, leather upholstery, and an Acura/Bose sound system. It also comes with minimal modifications and a clean, accident-free Carfax report, for added bidder confidence.
