1992 Acura NSX Barn Find Turns Up With Only 2,000 Miles On The Clock

Somewhere in Pennsylvania, an Acura enthusiast bought a new black NSX from a local dealer in 1991. When the owner brought the car back to the dealer for service, one of the service technicians reportedly decided to take it for a joy ride under the guise of ” test drive.” An accident occurred, causing extensive damage to the car.

After going back and forth with the dealer to get his car fixed, the dealer opted to trade the 1991 model for a white 1992 NSX. When he called his insurance company to add the new car to his policy, the agent mentioned that the NSX had become a rare model and the price would start to rise. . The owner decided to cancel the insurance, instead covered it and parked it in a barn, where it has slept comfortably until recently with only 2,002 miles showing on the odometer.

It is now for sale, the NSX is ready for a new caretaker. The owner moves and liquidates all his assets, enlisting the help of family friend Joe Feller to broker the car sale.

“The owner took me on a tour of his garage a few years ago and I saw there was a car under the hood,” Feller said. Road and Track. “I asked what it was and he said it was an Acura NSX. Years passed and I recently told him what it was worth, so he trusted me to be his advisor and found the car online.

The white exterior is covered in a three-decade-old layer of dust and the interior shows signs of mold, but Feller says the NSX has been kept in a heated garage and is in excellent condition. Scheduled for detailed information by AMMO NYC in the near future. The engine could face a deep overhaul, but the exterior is undamaged; the car owner would not even allow people to see or approach the car while it was in storage.

Still wearing its original Yokohama tires, the NSX is an absolute time capsule.

“He kept a copy of the dealer package (paperwork and flyers) from the first car and the dealer package from the second car that wasn’t even opened,” Feller says. “She kept many other knickknacks that were given to her in the past (which will be sold with the car.)”

Feller and the owner have not yet decided on a sale platform or whether to arrange the deal privately, but expect to generate a six-figure offer. Currently, more information and pictures are posted on Honda NSX Lovers Facebook Group.
