This 1991 Acura NSX is finished in Sebring Silver Metallic over a black leather interior and shows 98,600 miles. It is reported to have remained with the original owner until 2005 and was acquired by the seller in late 2006 from the second owner. Power comes from a 3.0-liter VTEC V6 equipped with a TaiTec exhaust and mated to a 5-speed manual transaxle. Other modifications include a shorter gear set, snap-ring repair, slotted and drilled brake rotors, and iForged alloy wheels. This NSX is now being offered with a clean Carfax and a clear North Carolina title in the seller’s name.
Sebring Silver Metallic was the least common of the three colors offered for the first year of NSX production, and the seller had the exterior of this example detailed a few weeks prior the auction. No prior-accidents or damage are shown on the included Carfax, though the seller reports that the front bumper has some damage on the lower edges from loading onto a flatbed. A scrape on the rear bumper has been highlighted in the gallery below along with other blemishes.
A walk-around video is attached above, showing the 18” diameter front and 19” rear iForged alloy wheels. Other modifications include a set of slotted and cross-drilled Brembo brake rotors.
The factory stereo powers up but no sound comes through the speakers, and the seller indicates slow-moving power window operation in both doors. Under 99k miles are shown on the odometer, approximately 17k of which were added by the seller over nearly 11 years of ownership.
The black leather interior features a set of embroidered floor mats, an aftermarket shift knob, a drilled gas pedal, and a period mobile phone in the center console as shown in the seller’s video above.
The 3.0-liter C30A V6 utilized dual overhead camshafts, VTEC variable valve timing, and titanium connecting rods to produce 270 horsepower from the factory. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle, which has been fitted with a shorter gear set and preventative snap-ring update. A timing belt and water pump service was performed in 2005 at 86k miles, and the flywheel was replaced at the same time. Routine oil changes and inspections have been performed during the seller’s ownership. The seller’s video of the underside can be viewed here.
Registration records in Colorado and North Carolina dating back to 1995 are shown on the included Carfax. A launch video with the TaiTec exhaust note can be seen below.
