Doug's Take

The original Acura NSX has become a seriously sought-after classic sports car, as the enthusiasts who had a picture of one on their walls as kids now want to put the real thing in their garages. This NSX is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, and it features a long list of modifications that make it stand out from other examples. It boasts a repaint in gorgeous Paul Ricard Blue, and it's been fitted with BBS wheels, a carbon fiber engine cover, a Type-S-style carbon fiber hood, a Type-R-style rear spoiler, a carbon fiber rear diffuser, and much more. Plus, this NSX comes with an accident-free Carfax report, for added peace of mind.
