Which car retention rate is stronger? You have to look at Honda! Do you believe that the price of the ultimate version of the Toei Ferrari 2022 Honda NSX Type S (which is listed under the Acura brand in the Chinese market and called Acura NSX) has been inflated by 2.85 times (nearly 3 times), which you can believe?
Recently, the price of the ultimate edition Dongying Ferrari 2022 Honda Honda NSX Type S, limited to 350 units worldwide, shocked fans around the world and players who follow the used car trade.
In Honda's hometown of Japan, a 2022 model year NSX Type S was sold for 80,000,000 yen (we counted, it was 80 million), 80 million yen at the current exchange rate of about 4.02 million yuan, to know that this Honda (Acura) supercar in Japan local new car guidance price is only 27,940,000 yen (about 1.4 million yuan), which shows how popular this car is by local Japanese car collectors, in order to make its price soar so much.
The Honda supercar retains its value more than the house (and has increased in value by nearly 3 times), which is a phenomenon that has not happened in the Chinese second-hand car trading market for a long time.
The NSX supercar has the title of Dongying Ferrari in the first generation, and it is a legendary model in the eyes of fans in Japan, Europe, the United States and China and even around the world, and this time it is the second generation model that was sold in Honda (Acura) in 2022 to discontinue the last batch of limited edition models before this car, so it is also regarded by the outside world as the ultimate version of Dongying Ferrari.
The NSX Type S is limited to 350 vehicles worldwide, with the US market accounting for 300 vehicles and the Japanese home market only 30 vehicles. It can be seen that this supercar is rarer in Japan than in the United States, and the quota is only one-tenth of the US market. Since it was the final version of the NSX, the 300-vehicle quota was swept away after only 24 hours of going on sale in the United States.
According to the news, the second-hand car that was auctioned for three times the price of a new car was first registered in 2022, and the mileage so far is only 50 kilometers, and this is obviously the collection that the buyer took to preserve after buying it, so some Japanese media questioned whether the original owner planned to buy it from the beginning and wait for the price of the car to rise before selling it at a high price.
In Japan, Honda's dealers will require owners who buy this NSX Type S to sign a one-year agreement that cannot be resold, but now June 2023 is not over, in fact, it is not yet a year before the delivery of the NSX Type S in Japan in 2022, and the owner has already taken it out for sale at this time, and it is clear that the agreement has become a piece of waste paper.
This ultimate version of the Toei Ferrari NSX Type S is equipped with the same 3.5L V6 twin-turbo engine plus two front and rear three-motor hybrid system, but Honda replaced it with a turbocharger from the NSX GT3 Evo race car, so that the maximum output of the engine is pushed to the level of 520 hp, and the peak torque is also 600 Nm, while Honda also provides the NSX Type The S has been replaced with a more efficient lithium-ion battery, so that the comprehensive output of the ultimate version of the Dongying Ferrari NSX Type S has reached the level of 600 Hp, and the peak torque has been pushed to the position of 667 N·m, and the paper strength can be compared to the real Ferrari supercar.
Finally, I have to say that the Japanese performance car / super car is really god-like value preservation, especially some classic / limited edition is sought after by fans, the front has Toyota (Lexus) LFA continues to increase in price, the rear has Honda (Acura) NSX, the price of Dongying supercars has hit new highs one after another. If you had 4.02 million, would you buy the NSX Ferrari or a real Ferrari?
