Honda NSX for sale in Texas? Import a Japanese-market car

Honda built the NSX in Japan from 1990 to 2005 and sold it here as the Acura NSX. Japan got versions America never did, like the NSX Type R. Walltap Garage finds the right car in Japan and brings it to Texas.

Why import a Japanese-market NSX?

  • Japan-only versions. The NSX Type R (1992–1995) was sold only in Japan, as was the later NSX-R (2002–2005).
  • Right-hand drive and Honda badges. Some buyers want the car exactly as it was sold at home.
  • More cars to choose from. Japan's auctions and dealers add colours and specs that rarely come up for sale in the US.

Which NSXs can be imported now?

Under the 25-year rule, a car becomes eligible 25 years after its own build month.

CarBuiltImport status
NSX (early cars)1990–2001Eligible once 25 years from build month; most of these years are now clear
NSX Type R1992–1995Every car is past 25 years
NSX-R and late NSX2002–2005Not yet: these reach 25 years from 2027 to 2030

Type R production was small, a few hundred cars by most counts, so expect a long search and a high price. We confirm the build date and the real model code from the documents before you commit.

What to check before bidding

  • Genuine Type R vs. a car with Type R parts added, checked against the model code
  • Accident and repair history on the aluminium body. How to read an auction sheet
  • Service history and mileage status (kilometres on Japanese cars)
  • Build month, so you know the earliest legal import date

Tell us the year range, spec, transmission, colour and all-in budget. Costs are in our JDM import cost guide, and shipping to Texas is covered in importing a car from Japan to Texas.

Questions buyers ask

Can I import a Honda NSX from Japan?

Yes, once the specific car is 25 years old from its build month and clears EPA and customs. Most 1990s cars are eligible now; 2002–2005 cars become eligible from 2027 onward.

Is a Japanese-market NSX different from the Acura NSX?

It's the same Japanese-built car, sold at home as a Honda, in right-hand drive, and with Japan-only versions such as the NSX Type R.

Can I import an NSX Type R?

Yes. The NA1 Type R was built from 1992 to 1995, so every one is past 25 years. Very few were made, so the search takes time.

When can I import an NSX-R?

The later NSX-R was built from 2002 to 2005, so those cars reach 25 years between 2027 and 2030, each by its build month.

Do you have an NSX in stock?

We mainly source to order. Tell us your spec and budget, and ask about any cars we currently have.

Can I register an imported NSX in Texas?

Yes. After customs, the car gets a Texas safety and emissions inspection, a VIN inspection and a title application. The steps are on our Texas import page.
