Yes, the NSX is still sexy after all these years.
The new C6 looks better in person than in pics, IMO. Definitely a hot ride. Can't wait to see the Z06 and the future NSX!

About the only thing that really tells the NSX's true age is the taillight...that design is totally 90s. But from every other angle, it looks just as fresh as the C6! Can't wait for the redesign...if there is one...

I've driven both. ('92, '99 and '02 NSX's) and the C5's and C6
Have to say, Chevy has done its homework, its a good car, especially considering the price. I just hate the interior.. its STILL cheap.
The NSX.. wow.. its a scapel verses an axe. One is precise, the other is more brute force.
Both are comfortable to drive surprisingly. You could have either as an everyday car in warmer climates.

And the NSX hasen't changed, other than some styling tweeks for the past 12-13 years! It was a car way ahead of its time.

I honestly think the NSX is still right where it should be in terms of price. Remember, ALL of it is built by hand, it's made of all Aluminum, and that 1990 engineering can still kick the arses of Ferrari 360 Modenas, MB SL55 AMGs, and Porsche 911 Turbos. Now, for that price, is it worth it? Depends. If you want a true track performer for that price, it's a steal! If you want your 90k-worth (which includes a badge), go out and get a Porsche Carrera.
I myself would spend my money on an M5 if I had 90k. But don't say the NSX is overpriced, Acura wants to maintain an exotic image for the NSX.

I like this thread !!!
I truly love driving my NSX. I only normally do it on the weekends because I have other cars(3 Integras, and TL) that I can drive during the week for work and errands.
However when the weekend comes I pull it out, wash it and drive all over. After all the years of having one it is still neat to watch people point and stare at it like it's an alien or something. Constantly get questions from onlookers at the gas station also.
I am proud to say that it is a 3 time winner at NOPI Nationals. On the DVD for the '02 show my car is printed on the front of it in a line of other ones!!
Of course it is loaded with chrome engine parts, audio/video system and the usual stuff.
As for the C6, I really like it. Have only seen 1 upclose and gained more appreciation for the size of it. It was a copper color which I didn't care much for. Very impressive performance though.

both car looks gd, but i would take NSX on any given day
NSX is a MR car, way into the Ferrari 360 class in driving excitement
C6 is gd too, outperforms M3 and 911 for less money, but the workmanship for NSX is just too gd
although it was back in 1990....they don't need a new one coz it's arleady so gd~

And given equal drivers, the Ferrari 360 and Porsche 911 Turbo would kill an NSX. For $90K I'd expect more perfomance for my money period.
NSX is the direct competitor with the Ferrari 360 with driving style and layout, no comparison to power house
why not just a viper then?
