A.) You can definitely get a $25k blank check loan for a 91-ish NSX. I know this because I asked Capital One when I was looking at them. Capital One will cut auto checks up to $100,000 if your income and credit is good enough. Again, if your stats are right, they don't care about age of the vehicle or purchase price relative to KBB/NADA. This is why everyone uses them to buy modified cars, because they'll give a $15,000 loan on a swapped S14 that only books for like $5k.
B.) Insurance on old NSX's is not only available, but it's relatively inexpensive. It's going to be more than, say, a 96 GSR or some shit, but it isn't outlandish like Evo insurance. I've probably asked for NSX quotes from every insurer I've ever been with (State Farm, Liberty Mutual, Geico) and I've never had one of them tell me that they "don't insure cars like that".
Buy the NSX, if what you want is an excellent well-rounded car. They're reliable, they get good mileage, good build quality, fast enough, fantastic handling, good top end, great braking, etc.....
If you want to wail on people at stoplights, buy something else. Get a Cobra or something.
Why buy a semi-legal sketch-tacular GTR when you can have a perfectly legal, babied low-mileage early NSX?

thought this thread was done with?!?
anyways i think he was talking about getting a loan for an nsx through a bank which wont happen. but you can get any car you want with capital one, it doesnt matter how old it is. capital one is great to use when doing person to person transactions...but you have to have a great credit score and have a good income to get approved.
not sure what you mean by car insurance for an NSX is inexpensive. mine cost just as much as my S2000 did...and S2000's are expensive to insure.

I'm not sure why anyone would ever want to get a used car loan through a normal bank rather than a credit union or blank check. Same rates, better terms. Banks suck.
Anyway, I bought an 04 WRX new back in Jan of 04, and just before I did, I called and got a 91 NSX quote while I was at it. It was literally like 2/3 of the WRX's quote (so like $2k/yr instead of $3k/yr).
