We're well aware of the fact that the Acura NSX (marketed as a Honda outside the U.S.) is justly considered to be one of the best and most reliable super cars ever to be produced, but finding an example that has clocked 409,228 miles or over 658,000 kilometers, is without any doubt, extremely rare.

Wow... 1991 Acura NSX with 409,000 Miles / 658,000 km up for Sale in California
We're well aware of the fact that the Acura NSX (marketed as a Honda outside the U.S.) is justly considered to be one of the best and most reliable super cars ever to be produced, but finding an example that has clocked 409,228 miles or over 658,000 kilometers, is without any doubt, extremely rare.This NSX that's up for grabs on Craigslist, was built in 1991, meaning that the owner/owners averaged around 22,000 miles a year which is pretty impressive for a vehicle of this type.
The seller notes that the NSX needs a clutch but "the engine sounds great and does not smoke or knock" while the sports car's interior has been updated and that "the paint and body are very straight".
As for the price, the owner, who's also selling another NSX with 46,000 miles for $27,500, is asking for $15,000, which seems a bit too high to us, but according to KBB, an NSX of this year with 409k miles, is valued between $12,950 (fair condition) and $16,100 (excellent condition).
