Just wanted to touch on these two points..
The snap ring is a very unique problem. I'm not sure if you've seen the inside of the NSX transmission, and the exact part that fails, and why it fails..
Only certain transmission numbers were effected, but even those within the range are not guaranteed to be effected. The way the defect works, I would be extremely surprised to see that it's still an issue have 250k kms.

Second point, to me, the buyer of this car is someone who is purchasing an NSX as a track build, or he/she really wants a car they can just drive without caring too much.
If it was your first NSX, I think it'd be better to wait for the one you really want.. but if it's a second NSX as a DD or something, it would be perfect.
