Default Here in Japan and saw this turbod NSX for only 24 grand

Just thought I'd share some pics...pretty nice NSX imo. Sorry, it's not turboed...we had though it says turbod on the sign, but as you can see...it's not.

Could be a very good deal if the car was well taken care of. If not, buy it, restore it to stock and sell the parts.

I think the downside to any highly modified car is the question on the quality of parts used, tune, and general wear.

Funny, the card in the window says: (assuming I'm reading it right, it's kinda hard to make out the smaller words)

HKS zees muffler, water pump and clutch have been overhauled, timing belt was replaced, SSR wheels, full aero, Bulb M (whatever a M Bulb is...) something else and backup camera..

Doesn't say anything about a turbo...

Still interesting though.. I'd stay away from that car. NSX's with aero like that and stock motors will usually sell for 1,500,000 yen more than that dealership's asking price. My guess is that car has been in an accident, they lost the title, et cetera.

I'm not sure how you missed it but I stated right above you that it was a "Zees" exhaust...

Found out why this car is so cheap, it's an auto...

Looks pretty sick!

I don't care if it's automatic. It beats any NSX here in the US.

I'd bring it back.

Because an automatic NSX on all season tires is a definite contender in any motorsports event........

It doesn't say that its turbo anywhere on the sign. A turbo kit for an NSX would be $20K in Japan. If it were a turbo NSX, I doubt that they'd be selling it for 2.4M JPY.

HKS zees muffler, water pump and clutch have been overhauled, timing belt was replaced, SSR wheels, full aero, Bulb M (whatever a M Bulb is...) something else and backup camera..
Pretty close...not "bulb M"...it says Group M Full Aero

I personally wouldn't touch it...any NSX under 3M JPY is either an automatic or pretty mechanically thrashed.

Nice catch.. I have no clue why I originally thought that was a katakana "fu"

Wow. How did I miss this comment in this thread? I could name a handful off the top of my head that not only perform better but by such a large margin that it'd be difficult to believe they share the same chassis.

in his defense, he said later he "was referring to its looks"

Im not sure if he meant that until he was told otherwise or not though.
