Glad to see things are kept alive and well, can't say the same for Honda Motor Co.

The photograph is shit.

makes me want to puke.

Agreed. I was going to say the same, did they really have to fisheye every single picture? Effort is appreciated, except my eyes fucking hurt.

On topic... NSX is such a timeless looking car. Thanks for the share.

nice find ! but i agree the photographing pretty much ruins it haha

Great car, retarded pictures. Thanks for sharing.

toooo nice...

save one for the archives, and go drive the rest of them like they are meant to be driven. Too many exotics just get wasted...

Oh dear god, jizz'd.
I will one day own an NSX-R!

yea photography is crap but that place still made me jizz in my pants....and perhaps the cat

excellent stuff!!

:sweetjesus:

No NSX-R GTs?

:troll:

A lot of nice clean NSSexes

My friend gave me a ride in his NA1 in Hong Kong about 6yrs ago and he spent an arm to get a steering wheel and a pair of Recaro bucket seats off from a NSX-R. It was a nice enough ride in his NA1. Engine & everything and of course the recaro feels GREAT! Wonder how it's like in a NSX-R...

Guess I will never have a chance to find out unless I go to Japan.

The jizz on the seat?

sigh.. what i would do for one of these.

:sweetjesus::sweetjesus:

even the shitty photo can't ruin the beauty of nsx.

Route KS is now a a part of my "to visit" places in Japan. Thanks.

Shitty pictures...suits the name of the website though.."7"tune

OH GOD I LOVE THE NSX

nah, i'll be impressed only if they could make this whole thing carbon fiber

http://www.7tune.com/wp-content/uplo...-5-587x388.jpg

^ ok so why was that a 'FAILED'?

I thought I had a good point...

Honda probably have/had what it takes to make it fully out of carbon fiber. The HSV-010 (Acura ASCC) NSX replacement was one, it was ready for production.

The NSX's had aluminum in 91, impressive when Ferrari had to wait until the 360 Modena to use it, Audi with the R8, Lambo with the Gallardo etc... literally at least 10 years ahead.

They were the first one to make that white thing out of all aluminum when most maker didn't even think of using aluminum in cars. Honda always had good engineers, but the difference is now their management don't have what it takes to put it to good use.
