250,000 miles

[Jordan G.]

There's a guy in my town selling his NSX because he bought a new Mercedes. I think the NSX is a 1995 model, and it has around 250,000 miles. What are some of the problems that this high mileage could cause to a NSX? What are some things I would need to check before I actually bought it?

Thanks for your input.

are you sure its a 1995 car ?? I am aware of several NSXs with over 200K miles, but most of them are earlier (91-92) cars.

The cars take mileage well, so long as scheduled/recommended maintenance are followed. For long-term use I'd check on:
- clutch
- A/C
- motor seals/gaskets (compression check, etc; may be due for a rebuild)
- timing belt/water pump maintenance every 90K miles/84 mo

Thanks for your input. I'm really not sure of the year model because it's been about a year or so since I last talked with this guy about it, and I just can't remember exactly what he said (he wasn't interested in selling it then).

By the way, I love your NSX, the silver looks great!
