Doug's Take

The original Acura NSX is one of the best and most important sports cars ever to come out of Japan – and it's not surprising that values are on the rise. This particular NSX is incredibly special, as it's had just one owner for the last 26 years – an amazing rarity in the NSX world. It's also finished in handsome Sebring Silver, and it touts a 5-speed manual, reasonably low mileage, and no modifications. Plus, this NSX is offered with a clean, accident-free Carfax report, for added peace of mind.

Highlights

THIS... is a 1991 Acura NSX, finished in Sebring Silver with a black interior.

• The attached Carfax history report contains several gaps, though it shows no mileage discrepancies for the given time period.

The seller reports no modifications.
• Sold as a Honda in global markets, the first-generation Acura NSX made its debut for 1991 as a user-friendly supercar with Ferrari-like performance and Japanese reliability.
