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..

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...

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.
