is it a good paint job? because of the color change... even the engine bay was painted red so i was wondering if it was a full teardown.

Canadian car modders are a little more conservative, but charge so much more when they do go a little overboard.

That NFR s2k screams rice. As above poster said, J's kits are one of the worst looking ones out there.

I do agree that it hasn't aged well, but its a bumper and there are plenty of options for the S2000.
As for the exchange rate its probably in USD. I wouldn't touch one so modded with a swapped motor though. First motor probably blew.

Yeah it was a great paint job, no cutting corners on the paint or clear coat quality. Professional booth. From what I know it was clean title. There was no body damage or anything... just an ugly yellow nsx. In its previous state I would say it was a 30k NSX (pre interior, susp, rims etc). Looks like a bunch of work went into it afterwards when it left paint but it still seems over priced... I'd skip the turbo kit and try to workout a deal in the sub 40 range realistically but thats not going to happen. I don' think those rims were 10k either...

The location is literally in the middle of the river. Probably the car is sunken.
