Can I get financing for a car that's 15 years old?

I want to buy an Acura NSX for $45,000 that's 15 years old. It doesn't exactly qualify for a classic car loan based on age, but it's definitely rare enough to be considered a classic. Can I get financing for this vehicle?

“Most
classic cars
have to be at least 25 years old to qualify for classic car status.
However, an Acura NSX may qualify for a car loan based on its price. Since it’s $45,000, a lender can still make some money off the
car loan
.
Your best bet is to shop around at credit unions and banks to see what they’re willing to do. If the NSX is low mileage and has a
Kelley Blue Book
value that’s similar to the price, you can probably secure a loan.
Keep in mind that there are certain requirements for a car to be considered a classic car. While you may love that car, it can’t be your primary vehicle or it won’t be considered a classic car.
You’ll also need classic car insurance for it. If you want help finding a good deal on this type of insurance,
