Ok makes sense. Yeah to be honest having got a bit jaded by all the hyperbole about 'They won't make them like this again' it's easy to overlook a true unicorn. Probably worth it tbh.https://www.pistonheads.com/news/ph-spottedykywt/f...

But then they aren't bought to be driven are they.

You’re all a bunch of knobs thinking you’re all merc experts. Cars like these are going up because they’re rare! Might look s
t in pictures but you when you seen them on the road I reckon all of you low life keyboard warriors look at them then look on eBay to buy one and you wait prices will be going up higher every 10 years. So enjoy ranting for another 10 years lol



So in about 30 years prices will have caught up and you'll be in the right ball park.
Thanks for the laugh.

£25k for an 18 year old SLK200 that hasn't had an MOT in nearly 4 years.

Not going to look at the ad for the Astra. No matter what price it is on for, it is overpriced.
£9,900,
The way every single possible surface has been covered in carbon fibre look sticky back plastic too...that's quality!

Has to be the biggest disappointment in relation to hype vs reality of a car launch in the last 20 years. When you can buy a manual NA V10 R8 for £50k I'd say that's about £135k too much.

From everything I have read/watched, they are great cars but misunderstood by the market and too expensive for a ‘Honda’. Much like the original. Shame really as Honda could do with being rewarded for making something interesting.

Thing with modified car ads is that I can understand the pricing, if the ad details and proves that work has been done and it has been done to a high standard. So if the person would show close ups and build process of a full carbon body, I would say at least money went into it. But with just a list and bad pictures, it just overpriced.

Are they even that much new? You could probably walk into a dealership and spec one to your own terms and get it cheaper than that! I am pretty sure you could get a heavy incentive on an NSX given how many they haven’t sold.

At 55-60k I will have one. This or a McLaren whatever. Every single time. Cost of ownership of nothing else ...
