If those sky-high “market adjustments” -- aka “dealer markups” -- on hot new performance cars make your blood boil, know that balance exists in the universe, and at the moment, that balance is taking the form of brand-new 2017 Acura NSX models with chopped prices.
For example, here’s a $204,500 car offered for the low, low price of $189,500. That doesn’t exactly bring the price down to used Accord territory, but the price difference is more than enough to get you a few sets of tires and a couple tanks of gas. Other NSXs have smaller discounts -- one or two thousand bucks off the sticker. The rare car might even offer more of a bargain; Jalopnik managed to find one for $44,800 off the sticker at a dealer in New Jersey. That's almost enough to get you the new car
and a classic NSX to park next to it!
Still, the majority of the cars we’ve seen listed online are selling for MSRP, or even slightly above it. This lends credence to Acura’s claim that the discounted units are, in at least some cases, spec cars ordered early on to serve as display models to build hype at dealerships.
Indeed, the NSX we linked, with its blue paint, light interior and black wheels, looks a lot like the press car we’ve driven. Many NSX buyers are going to want a car built to their specifications, and they might even want to visit the factory in Ohio to watch their particular car rolling down the assembly line. These custom cars won’t show in any listings online, though we assume there won’t be any cash on the hood involved in their pricing.
