It's not for sale and if it ever will be than it's not going to be available to the public. Most likely one of the Honda employees will get it but if it would ever be for sale to the public than I'm thinking it would easily generate around $30-$35k

He said that 95 miles is made primarily from pushing it from one building to another.

thats funny, the training center in windsor locks conn. looks identical. they never see any dirt. I asked about the training centers cars last time I was there and they said when they are done at the center and if no one in the training center facility wants to buy it then it goes to the auction! love to find a jem like that itr

My guess would say neither NSX or S2000. It looks like an AWD transmission due to it having a spot for half shafts AND a drive shaft.

NSX transmissions do not look anything like that. Remember, they are similiar in shape to FWD vehicles since they are MR cars.

Didn't even think about that. I posted once, then realized that if that were an S2k tranny, the wheels would be at about the rear edge of the doors

The one in Ft. Lauderdale i s VERY similar. Only Snap-on tools and very clean. We have CW ITR #69 with just over 200 miles on the clock!

No tours, and a coded access panel just to get in the door...

I've been twice and scheduled for another training session in a few months...
