White NBs

CT · Postby CT » Wed Sep 13, 2006 12:52 pm

I had heard that there were less than 70 NBs in total in either white colours. A's and B's have a different colour code for white and they are definitely different colours. Good luck finding one, not many floating around though.

i love the NA in white, the NC in white looks great and i imagine the NB in white would look fantastic.

Color priority for me would be:

Blue
Black
White
Yellow.

Black is the colour which belongs to the NB's
Red belongs to the NA's

I love white NBs, given you like them I really hope you can find one.

I have only ever seen 2 in Victoria, 1 was in the CBD and the other in Flemington.... dont think they were the same car, the first one was lowered with a nice zorst on it and the second one seemed standard.

Then there was the innocent looking white NB with a little bat on the side cleaning up nearly everything at Winton on the weekend.

Austral Honda in Brisbane had a very very nice white NB8A with 60K on it in their yard a few weeks ago, but they were asking $25 :shock:

So there are some around.

MX5's look great in white - it is Japan's racing colour after all. Otherwise I'll take mariner blue as my next favourite colour.

I've bough two white MX5s - a '97 NA8 and a '02 NB8B SP. White was a special order colour in both cases, so not too many around.

one ages ago, perfect but in Qld

that would probably be a certain even rarer white NB (1 of 2) which replaced a kinda rare Silver NB (1/45ish) all part of 100ish NB's

....and casey throws in his tuppence too, or is that the other 1 of two :mrgreen:

I only know of one white NB (the ex Mania one) which I think is now owned by Zoom Zoom.. It will be hard to find one but if you do try to use the colour as a reason to get a lower price as a lot of people think white convertibles suck. Recently I was putting some money into a parking meter and overheard two people talking about my car. They both agreed the owner must be an idiot for buying a white \"sportscar\" :roll:

NCs look great in white too. I saw a white one with hard top on Tuesday

hopefully no one will want it in 10 years time and I will be able to buy it cheap! Hands off I saw it first...

Yes - I had to kick and scream and threaten to pull my deposit before Mazda agreed to make me one in white - this was back in 2000 mind you. Imagine my surprise when I found out there was another.....

Good choice and here in Qld (with some companies) a 3% discount off insurance because of the colour (or lack of it). My NA was Crystal white and I loved it, it almost never looked dirty even when it really was.
