Blown NSX (pics)

hey guys,

i stopped by the acura dealership in austin today (David McDavid), the worst dealership ever as vinh (civic4982) would know. they tried to charge me 80 bucks to get my radio code. anyways, i was walking around and i saw a used nsx for sale. dream car. 1998 spa yellow with 10k miles. has a CT sc, headers and exhaust and some carbon fiber thing. they were selling for 62k, which i think is a pretty good deal. anyways, here's some pics. the asshole salesman wouldn't pop the hood so i can see the engine.

I've always thought that is a beautiful car... but seriously, it needs some bigger wheels!

And what kind of dealership doesn't let you pop the hood?

I think in TX they just leave the same plates on the car, even when it changes owners.

I've never had a bad experience with that dealership, though I have bought my last two vehicles through them so they may be a little iased towards me. I do know, however that there are several people who work there that monitor this site periodically, so your complaints may be heard.

Yeah in some states the plate stays with the car forever... in others the plate stays with the owner.

Some states just have to be ASS backwards.

yeah, that's a nice car. if my friend was still working there maybe I coulda gotten a test drive. I dind't know it was a CT Supercharged NSX or I woulda been all over it. I've test driven an NSX before, they're fun.

I also do not like that dealer mentioned and I've also bought 2 cars there. Thank god the new Acura delaership will open soon on the motor mile in south Austin.

It's about time. Austin has been a one Acura dealer town for too long. I'll never go back to that dealer if I like the new one.

PS - that dealer mentioned doesn't care about complaints, believe me.
