Damn straight, bitches!

Mine came out to 185 grand. But it would be $10k less if it let you remove ceramics. I like that you can get manual seats.

NSX

Mine was $192,175

$183,750

Really nice the customization options, kinda surprised though you have to pay $1200 for floor and trunk mats and $125 for wheel locks. Woulda thought those be standard, maybe Acura is trying to emulate Porsche too much

Anyone else notice the NSX using wheel bolts (like the Germans) instead of wheel studs and nuts?

TacoBello

I understand Acura is trying to make the NSX more premium and upscale, but I find it incredibly difficult to pay 10 times more for floor mats and a trunk tray that are likely made of the exact same material and come from the exact same manufacturing facility as all other Acura mats

This is what makes a Ferrari, a Ferrari; or a Lamborghini, a Lamborghini.

Acura is trying real hard to build up its upscale premium brand image.

nist7

^^yeah seems like it.

Seriously though $1200 floor mats? dafuq............

Well I guess when you can afford a 200k car you don't really worry about chump change $1000 'whatever'...just tell your assistant to add it to the list and order the car!

Legend2TL

, agree I also cannot see paying 10x for something that is given away for free on a Accord

must've hit close to home on that one

$215k and no way in fuck would I pay that for an Acura.

ttribe

Ummm, no. Just tired of seeing your whiny posts about the criticisms launched at Acura.

so now you're whining about my posts.

Whining is the wrong word - I'm sure he's pointing out the fact that your post(s) were nonconstructive and really make no sense whatsoever.

But hey, at least Porsche throws in free floormats on a brand new $175,000 GT3 RS

Yumcha

And the GT3 is not vapor.

good things he's got you to come to his rescue.

So ... does that mean the NSX will have the first floor mats in a production car that are made of vapor?

TylerT

iTrader: (1)

Nope.

Just calling it as I see it.

I thought for a moment that if perhaps TWO people pointed out your asinine posts you'd get the picture.

I was wrong, so carry on.

Is this posted?. wannabe supercars cant match real thing.

Nexx

i wouldnt pay anything for a jeep or a dodge either.

fsttyms1

wannabe supercars cant match the real thing??? Where is a wannabe supercar? And dont say the 10 year old sedan in the video

SSFTSX

its not some straight line drag race. so hp shouldnt matter. you can see the amount of tire noise coming and RS4 was floating to the other side of the road. i bet NSX was with all season tires and still it can effortlessly beat it.



RS4 has 420bhp with AWD sport differential and dynamic ride control. it cost $70k in 2007 barebone.

VR1

lol wut. A 9 year old newer car that costs more then 2x as much better beat it.

RPhilMan1

Haha no one cares about what you think. You've been obviously trolling it up in the threads here, Hatter.

mangoman75

i'm more surprised that 10 year old car which about 1/3 of the price of fully loaded NSX kept up this long on the twisties. he only stopped chasing because he blew out his tires which could've been 10 years old..

Nexx

And you really think the guy driving nsx which wasn't even his was really pushing it?

SSFTSX

You are assuming the NSX driver really want to go extreme. we dont even know whether the owner was driving NSX or some loaner from Honda.
The point is car handlings of cars like RS4 and M3 hasnt been changed that much in past 10 years. and this very twisted road. not straight line. you can see enormous noise from RS4 tires. the car cost $70k in 2007 with practically no luxuries. NSX is true luxury everday supercar. i wont take unreliable Ferrari or Lambo for sight seeing trips.

mangoman75

i guess you didn't detect any sarcasm in my post..... this guy always talks about tires and tires... this video didn't prove anything... it's like comparing apples to... peanuts... RS4 driver was stupid even to follow the NSX while almost killing himself and passenger in the process.. if this was NSX vs R8, my comment would've been more sincere..

mangoman75

lets look at it this way.. it would've been sad if new NSX with new tires couldn't really get away further from a 10 year old crap car as you described.. doesn't make sense to compare these 2 cars.. different layout, pricing, year, tech on and on.. please find a video between NSX vs McLaren S570 or something similar.. which would be worth comparing...

SSFTSX

provided Mclaren is confident of sending solo it to mountains.

mangoman75

i think it's the other way around since we know about its (s570's) performance.. and it doesn't have to be s570.. anything around that range for comparison would be nice..

Do us a favor and stay under your bridge.

I'm certainly not a Mopar guy, but it seems they're offering a car for nearly half the cost that breaks records on 13 different tracks.

This.

Who in their right mind would compare these two cars?

Also, whoever was driving that RS4 is a total fuckstick.

SSFTSX

We don't know how these cars will perform with big all season tires and higher elevation. so you can't extrapolate there performance from track.

ttribe

That's because only Acura would put "big all season tires" on a mid-engine supercar! McLaren knows better.

wreak

I haven't been following the new NSX news very closely but I guess it depends what Acura sought to do with the new NSX, the original NSX was actually marketed as the "everyday supercar". I agree though, it should come with some seriously sticky ultra high performance tires IMHO.
