^ nsx would look ugly convertible lool

valent|n0 07-09-2010 09:01 AM

there is stock black NSX often spotted on barnet highway
looks sooo much like a regular car because it is stock , dusty and dirty , dull black paint..
to the untrained eye it could be just the same as a mazda MX3 for all they know..

to me it is still a sight to see though..

AndM 07-09-2010 06:38 PM

Reading this post made me go back and check out past issues of modified where the did tech articles on the nsx. Its such a beautiful car!!! I want one!

mqr03 07-09-2010 09:51 PM

I had a supra and sold to buy nsx. Supra has nothing over nsx besides those twins. NSX is so much more refined like an exotic supercar.

toyota's never made an awesome handling car. Including the supra.

I worked at an Acura dealership a couple of years ago and we serviced many NSX's. They are a site of beauty and the NSX was tested by the late Aryton Senna, which to me, he was the F1 god. There is a lot of history behind the NSX. I remember reading a long time ago a road & track magazine when the NSX finally came into production and since then i wanted one.
Right now i have a modded 93 MR2 turbo and absolutely love the handling, mid engine lay out, etc. so i see an NSX in my future...

Whoever wants a nsx after this post should also look into this. looks pretty mint to me.

I'm sure even after years have come, the NSX will still look great

I'm sure there's a bunch of other positives but those are my main ones

Not only tested, but he had a major hand in the development of the car.

I've posted this article recently in another thread, but I'll post it again in case some people haven't read it.

Don't know about that, but it certainly lit a fire under Ferrari's ass.

That's because in my opinion, a lot of what made Honda great died along with Mr. Soichiro Honda in 1991.

Thank you for the article. I was watching the race the day when Aryton Senna went into the wall and was sad to hear that he pass away.
When i was with Acura, the only problems i ever saw where very minor little issues and just regular maintenance. The owners loved how reliable the NSX are and i spoke to one owner that purchase one and installed a Comptech supercharger kit instead of a F430 because of the reliablitlity of the NSX. (Their friend owned a F430 and it was always in the shop)
For it to compare to the exotics that are on the road today, they do require a power adder but for looks or handling they need really nothing.
Like i posted before, there is a lot of history behind the NSX.
