TX NSX owner looking to get into an FD

Hello gang! New guy here. My early puberty years were spent in the early 90's, where my love for Japanese sports cars developed. I picked up an NSX a few years ago, and I've been patiently waiting for my unicorn FD to show up. I just wanted to introduce myself to the community and say hello. I've been keeping an eye on BaT, Autotrader and Craigslist. If anyone has any recommendations on where I can find great examples for sale, I'm all ears!

I'm still learning about the intricacies of these cars, but I'm looking for a 1-owner, sub-20K original miles, all stock, chaste white touring or PEP model, 94' or 95'. May not be unicorn in others' books, but seeing that only 1 CW has been sold out of 38 sales on BaT in the last year, I'd say the odds are not in my favor.

No, the odds are not in your favor, but I would keep looking and wait until you find the one you're looking for. Don't settle. So, about this NSX... What year is it and do you have any pictures to share? I love those cars!!

Indeed, never settle is right. I'll lurk on these boards as long as I have to! I have a 98 NSX-T with 55K miles. It was my daily driver for a few years until the kiddos came along. Here are a few shots!

Thanks Dustin! I've reached out to the seller. Definitely looking for something with lower mileage and less mods, but let's see where this goes.

Cheers!

Io have to say that the NSX is gorgeous! How is the car as a daily driver? Honda reliability with supercar performance. A combination that is only matched by the the sheer beauty of the car.

Oh man for a car that age, it has never given me any major issues. The Japanese know how to leverage cross-platform parts such that services don't cost an arm and a leg. I wish I drove it more nowadays, but if I pick up this FD the NSX will have to further split time!
