This is a 1992 Acura NSX in Grand Prix White that has sat in a workshop for over 22 years with just 2000 original miles. The lowest mile NSX is ready to find a new home so we perform an intensive detail restoration.

Just for those wondering why it sat for 22 years. The owner originally bought the vehicle in black but when he took it in for an oil change one of the workers at the shop took it for a joy ride and totaled it. After being reimbursed the owner went and bought this one to replace it. However after a few years of driving it, his insurance skyrocketed to $700/month. Back in ~1996 that was just way too much to spend so he decided to let it sit for a bit. However, a bit turned into a lot longer than expected when life took over. Check out the road and track article if you’re interested:
I couldn't afford $700 a month insurance now!
I dunno how accurate this is. The original inspection stickers are still on the car, expired in 1993. They would stand out to an eager State Trooper up there if he was putting miles on it until 1996.
The dates are not accurate as I’m not the owner but a family friend and my husband can be seen in the video in the back when the owner first walks in to see the car revealed. 1996 was just a year that I threw out there knowing that he drove it for a bit before having to park it due to the insurance increase. 31+ years ago is a long time to remember exact dates even for the owner. He didn’t update insurance or get it inspected after 1993. But needless to say he had the car for ~2 years before having to “park” it for insurance purposes.
@@I-Teee I mean if they were pulled over.
@@kbf5037what part of the country was the car in? The area looked nice in the video.
Just insane. The number of these low-mileage NSX's that keep popping up seems to never end. I bought my 91 with 26K miles almost 20 years ago and love it as much today!
Where? Link us!
True bro, I have an 08 RX8 with 50k on it, and only put 800 miles a year on it. Always brings a smile to my face cranking 9k rpms 💪.
how much would this one go for
They come out of their hole simply because their owner knows the crazy amount they will get for it.
Problem is you need to restore it mechanically, change all the rubber parts
The guy bought the car in 1992, drove it 2000 miles in 20 YEARS and then decided to put it in a garage and let it sit for another 20 YEARS. Now he wants to sell the car because he needs money and NEVER appreciated the wonderful machine he had in his hands... this video serves as a warning to people: LIVE LIFE! If you have a cool car, your dream car in your garage, drive it!! Don't let the cars rot, please!
He did 2000 in 10 years, he put it away in ‘02 or ‘03
Math isn’t your strong suit… 😂
Edit: unless you’re from the future, commenting back through the space-time-TH-cam continuum?! 👽
Def. need to enjoy it, but classic icons are sometimes great show cars. Good to preserve to an extent.
Your math ain't mathing buddy
@@freighter1097 if someone mistreats their car i'm going to look negatively on that. letting a car rot in a messy garage instead of driving it is mistreating it
ACURA should buy this and display this in their museum.
Larry giving us all tips on how to prevent things that require his services shows he's the consummate professional. "If you need me, I'm here. But here's how to prevent my need in the first place."
Truly a car guy, and we love ya, Larry.
Thanks so much!
True. I also liked how when cleaning the interior with his product, he stated "but if you dont have Ammo Restorer can use a 50/50 mixture of white vinegar and water", instead of pushing/making the viewer feel like they have to buy a product. And just for that, I will be trying/buying 1 of his products.
Great job Larry! When I heard the owner was working with you on this detail, I knew the car would be in great hands! Hope to meet you one day!
Thank you!
@@AMMO-NYC @WDDetailing you both smell that? Smells like a collaboration is needed on something special.
you and Larry are both my favorite detailers. let alone i love your products and use them religiously on my car. you both need to collaborate one day.
Why did you wash / mist the car first. Instead of the foam and very light mist. All that clay work was probably that dirt being pushing into the paint
@@doktorzasinuse Lol yeah lets tell Larry who pioneered so many things hes doing it wrong
Why let a car go to waste? Sitting for 22 years and only 2K miles?
Life happens, and time passes. Sometimes, it just goes that way.
@@Fastxfords99 Yeah, tell me about it!!!! My dad has a TR6 that's been parked since I was 5 years old. I'm now 46!!!!! 😀
@@Fastxfords99 Life happens, but if you say you love the car there is no reason to leave it for 22 years and let it get mouldy.
@@Fastxfords99 I'd rather sell a car and let someone else have it instead of letting it sit for decades and collect dust.
@@ericervin4778then buy one and drive it. Leave this alone…his car
Marty is a fun character
Absolutely!
can't stand him lmao
@@transformerstuff7029you my friend, are not a fun character
@@transformerstuff7029 Yet here you are
@@ronsmith4325 yes......for a detailing video.....we can skip the unfunny dude with the mental issues.
These vehicles have aged so well. Great design.
yes, it is a timeless design.
Acura's in general from this time aged very well. Now it's a disaster
its like a butterfly, most beautiful car ever.
Saw a silver one driving around yesterday. Some guy at work has a lovely red one making more appearances with the weather getting nice.
They were way, way ahead of their time. Reviews actually complained that they were too reliable, easy to drive & live with compared to other supercars so they were no good 😂
Something tells me it looked WAY BETTER than the day he picked it up from the dealer. Another detailing masterclass Larry! 💪
That's not a barn find, that's a hostage.
Ayrton Senna's personal NSX is now owned by the Honda Museum collection in Japan
Such an iconic video and car!
What?? Sennas black NSX with the plate no BSS-8888 he drove in Sao Paulo, Brazil?
@@146909 He had a red one in Portugal, maybe that's it.
That classical music was so refreshing.
That car was likely sitting for 30 years. They are the PA inspection stickers that likely came with the car and were applied January of 1992. That’s incredible. Looks like Northeast PA area, and the lack of rust shows it wasn’t driven in winter. What a time capsule.
It wasnt driven in the winter because it wasnt driven at all LMAO.
They were aluminum bodies with mostly aluminum frame and suspension components
@@donpayton737 that as well
@@donpayton737that doesn't mean drive it in the snow lol, it is a 90s Honda still
yeah it looks like carbondale, PA(aka garbagedale)
The piano music while detailing the interior was very pretty. Had me fully engaged 👍🏻
probably wont ever see one in such new condition again
Hello 😊
Such a timeless body style....cant imagine who doesn't love an early 90's NSX!!!
12:10 as kid who grew up in 90s/00s Hondas, that beeping brings back memories
Seeing them clean this thing up is like magic.
This brings back a lot of memories. I had a black '92 and a silver '94. Wonderful cars.
Loved the “sawdust” analogy referring to pad buildup. Nice little throwback to the ATA 200 series!
Love the classic background music for a classic car.
The state of his garage tells me everything I need to know about why that car sat for 22yrs. "I'll get around to fixing it up".
One person said his insurance skyrocketed in the 90s making it cost prohibitive to drive.
It wasn't broken...
Dude… 2,000 miles… the car to this day is in perfect condition. Did you see the undercarriage? In better shape than 95% of 2024 model cars on the road today, anyways the guys insurance was like $900 in the 90s that’s astronomical, hence why it was parked just for longer than he had hoped I guess..
@@mikej5959how are you doing
Every customer/client should be like this, so much appreciation for the hard work and bring it back to life
Barn find details are the best type of detail
Awesome episode, a Japanese classic. This guy is going to get A LOT of money for this car.
No he won’t cuz this car is extremely old and ancient
@@TheInfantry98 Dumb
@@TheInfantry98I hope you are sarcastic cause with the NSX market now, it can go over $100k…
Love how he is explaining the process for us laymen. As it is very apparent that he cares.
9:01 Why not remove the seats to steam clean the carpeting underneath? There has to be microbial growth there too if it is everywhere else and with the AC air intake potentially on the floor, I wouldn’t want to be breathing that in.
This is all I was thinking about.
How he did not drive that all of these years I have no idea. I have had mine for 16 years and I love it more each time I get in it. No need to save it for the next guy. That color combo is rare and he should easy fetch $125k+ on this one. Awesome job Larry. This makes me want to ditch work today and stay home and just wash mine.
I love that machine. I recently bought a 2002 RSX and have been slowly working on getting it back to tip top shape. Not even comparable to this beaut but it gives me motivation.
Amazing job, he is right it looked brand new.
Suchhhh a rad car in the best color and now detailed by Larry. Amazing.
love the music. Makes it very enjoyable to watch
Thx for mentioning Senna!
I used to have my meals while watching your videos. While food fills my tummy, your detailing videos fill my heart!! Great work pal!!
Came for the rear end, stayed for the pop 🆙 🆙 & down headlights 😮 gorgeous car!
There’s a simple reason we watch this channel, cause Larry is the best
How are you doing
That was unbelieveble. Flawless job!
I don’t have many cars I’d really like to own but the NSX is one and what an example. It was showroom new by the time you finished!
No one does it like Larry. GOAT in the automotive detail world. This NSX detail and how Larry documented the detail will go down as one of TH-cam’s best car detail videos.
So about 20 years ago I had an NSX. Truly regret selling it back then. But it is nice to say I had one and look back at the pictures I still have. Amazing car. Hope this one finds a good home.
I won't make you feel any worse by telling you how much those cars are worth today! 🙂
Oh trust me I know. I’m somewhat of a collector.
By far these are your best videos. Low mileage cars brought back to new condition and each step explained . Binge worthy 👍
Beyond incredible transformation! That result couldn't have been any better.
Great video and sensational vehicle to boot. Looks much better before facelift. Your ammonyc badge is a nice touch as well . Wishing you the best! ❤️
Insert the guy from I Love You, Man saying "This is Awesome, This is AWESOME" in that high pitch voice LOL. But really Larry, killer job. Been a fan a long time and your videos never cease to amaze.
An amazzing result. Love these barn find resurrections.
I graduated HS in 92 this was my dream car back then and still cool today!
Tried Larry's product line up and man is legit. Going to have to try that polishing liquid next cause damn it changed that car
Gosh I love the NSX. This one in particular is insane !!
AMMO NYC is LEGIT! Amazing work! Enjoyed the video.
This is my dream car, seeing one being restored is soo satisfying.
Wow, reminds me of how much I fell in love with this car when I was released, and that’s the color combo that I loved , too! White exterior with black interior, perfect! And what great job you did, looks better than brand new! Hope who ever gets it(him if he keeps it or whoever buys it) takes care of it and keeps it looking new! And it needs to be driven and enjoyed every once in a while. Great video and amazing job!
Thank you!
Hey Larry, As a super fan of the Acura NSX this has to be my favorite video you've ever turned out. What an incredible work of art the NSX (New Sportcar Experimental) is. An amazing job friend, I can tell you thoroughly enjoyed this project. When a masterpiece is created like the NSX its forever young and timeless.
Glad you enjoyed it!
What a gold mine!!! That NSX is a collectible
Beautiful detail. I knew this one was gonna be a looker when you were done.
Someone is gonna be VERY happy with this car.
I love my car so I’m gonna neglect it for two decades.
How are you doing
Good thing the mice didn't set up house in it!! Looks amazing!
How are you
Wow… what a transformation. The NSX is my dream car. Hopefully I’ll get to enjoy it in my own driveway someday 🤞
It’s always a treat to watch you work
This is the first time I've gotten a giddy feeling from watching a video about a car. Now I want an NSX...
How are you
Larry you are an absolute legend wish you had a studio over here 🇬🇧👍🇬🇧👍
Ho
Great use of music & sound - production values are superb.
An incredible job as always!! There have been many that were special, and this one is up there.
Should’ve gone ahead and taken the seats 💺 out for hidden mold. What a car.
Amazing job as usual especially the interior. If there’s an Oscar for detailing I think you won.🥇
Wow, thank you!
His reaction was so much more gratifying than many other reveals.. truly thankful and blown away.
My two favorite cars in the world in the garage. I feel in love with the NSX when it debuted. Not sure that interior has been beat yet. Really enjoyed this episode Larry with the interior mold removal. I have an 05 Lexus is300 that sprung a seal leak on the sunroof and the whole interior was covered with mold. Great job.
How are you doing Steve
Love this guys work
I love these videos compared to brand new Supercars that are already clean, great work
Hello 😮
What do you think of dry ice cleaning in that sort of applications? Especially for the undercarriage and engine bay. Is that something you might add to your equipment?
UNREAL transformation. I saw a white NSX not too long ago, always mazing in person.
Great job Larry 👏👏👏👏👏
That’s Honda’s history with such a low miles and perfect condition.
I'm pretty sure we've done that mileage in a long weekend in our NSX, more than once! Awesome to see this one get cleaned up and ready to go to a new home (and maybe see a few miles added).
Right on!
There’s a guy in my area (probably mid- to late-70s) that regularly drives a red high-mileage NSX. I’ve seen him loading up groceries at Kroger a number of times. I always tell him he’s a legend and I love his car.
@@KyleBrightman Any chance that's in the FL pan handle? I've heard of a half mil mile NSX old by an older professor down there.
Your level of precision is incredible!
@@LapoftheWorld SW Ohio
Oh boy, that 90s Honda ignition dinging. Transported me straight back to my grandparents’ house in Maine, my Papa was driving a burgundy honda accord, with the robot seatbelts that auto slid across the a-pillar.
Man.. what a beautiful machine ❤
0:37 I love the detail you added about the car being 'rear mid-engine', instead of just mid-engine. The reason I say this is because even front mounted engines can be mid-engine, and only saying mid-engine could mean either of the two. For example: The Dodge Viper has ALWAYS been front mid-engine, as the engine sits behind the front wheels.
Larry certainly knows more about detailing in his small finger than I could ever know, but I do have to question not removing the seats for the mold clean. Certainly mold doesn't say "hey, let's just get moldy on the front of the seats and not on the back or the carpet" I know if must be more labor intensive, but a necessary step to completely rid the interior of the mold.
How are you doing and I will love be your friend on Facebook or Instagram
the look on this car before and after is amazing, the design and the interior are timeless. the owner has right, she deserves to be on the road once again.
What a car! Thanks for bringing that one back to life! :D
Fun fact, the beeping you hear with the key on accessories. Is HONDA in Morse code
Not quite. Just H in Morse code 👍
@@chrisH-uv5wx yeah, too repetitive to be Honda, and I don't know Morse code.
That car is going to fetch A LOT of money, AT LEAST $130k+
Unreal detail. Thanks for sharing!
One of best cars of its era. Great detailing, really enjoyed it. I’ll be trying this product.
What a transformation, brilliant.
That's a 100k plus car.
Love them.
I've still not seen a NSX Type S Zero yet.
Only 30 were made but I would love to see one.
you havent seen one because an NSX Type S Zero is a Japanese Market only car.
@@imtiredbosss and North America.
@@imtiredbosss You made me curious, I never knew this and found this interesting....
The NSX Type S was limited to 350 units worldwide, with 300 of these units available for the U.S. market, 30 for Japan and 15 for Canada. The Type S was the only version of the NSX that will be produced during 2022.
@@mrharry8466that is incorrect, the information you found is regarding the NEW NSX TYPE S. Which isnt rare compared to the original.
Google “NSX TYPE S Zero NA1 production numbers” only 30 of them were ever produced and only sold in Japan.
This car would sell for $180,000 - $220,000
What was the jump box used? That looks pretty handy to have. Great restore++
So satisfying these videos, hard work and the reward
one of my favorite cars ever, so simple yet so awesome.
That thing is an absolute beauty - brilliant work as always Larry 😍
They really were, are, a supercar, .. you did a great job there it looks like a million dollars
Thank you!
WOW!!! What an AMAZING Job you did on the NSX!!!
I appreciate you still continuing to talk about the tips and tricks of detailing, what you're doing, which products you're using, etc. I know it must feel pretty boring for you now that you've done it a million times, but I like how informative the videos are
I remember when NSX NA1’s were $25,000, nowadays those cars don’t sell under $60k even after track abuse and modifications
you can buy one under $60k. It will be automatic though.
Never been that fast in my live 😂
This detail is as impressive as the car sitting for 22 years. What a treat to watch. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Best barn find you’ve detailed. Coming from a JDM fan and an ex NSX owner👏
More barn find vids
What would this sell for?
So satisfying to watch ❤
Wow, what a find! I bet Honda would love that! ❤
