i remember a yellow nsx with that same bodywork with a rebuilt title several years back being sold at a burnaby used car lot on edmonds. could this be the same one? i remember people saying the conversion was a total hack job...
edit: is this it? but i not see a window for the engine bay like the green one has...

I remember when I listed my R32 GTR over 6 years ago, pretty much the same thing happened, guy came down from Fort Mac and drove it back. Those 'bertans got money.

I think it probably cost too much to be very profitable to begin with, and the price in USD is quite reasonable. I have no idea what he paid for it though. Could have got it cheaper than market value.
