That cheaper than a few years ago. A low milage 3.2 was usually going for over £40K before.

For roughtly the same cash what would you rather have?

£33K is not a bad price for that model.

not keen on the yellow, but manual is a plus

You get past that, after a while - choose your times when there's fewer Mr Deads/Motorised Prams on the road. People do GTF out of the fast lane when they see you approaching...

IKWYM about yellow; only really works under California sunlight. But it suits the NSX better than one might think.

It's a very good price indeed. But the Cat D status means it's always gonna be worth less than a straight one. It's notoriously difficult to get the panels to sit right and ally welding is a specialist subject...

If you think; it cost what, 60 in '03 and the value of repairs in '05 came to over 30 to write it off...

It's clearly not fallen apart since, though...

C'mahn - there ain't no such thing as a free lunch and ceteris paribus, it would be up there for 10-15 large more!

A really good late 3.2 pop-up* would set you back north of 30 and is really the same car with lighter front wheels and minus a body kit. It has the same S2000-leather, if you dislike the ruched stuff of the original cars.

That rare NA1 manual -T is quite good value, if it's as good as it appears.

The cheapos send to be F-matics and no; don't even to begin to think about thinking about a conversion...

*the best version to have...

thats because they realised they failed the design on the 5ths

only joking i do really like the look of the 5ths from the right angle
