This is the exact reason why I wasn't going to mention it was an auto. Please do not derail my thread with the Auto vs Manual argument.
I obviously don't care about it's HP ratings, or I wouldnt have considered this car at all...manual or auto. There's 20 other things I love about this car and if I ever do want to make it faster, there's a large aftermarket for it.
While most may choose the NA2 manual, the rarity of this car made me jump on it within 5 minutes of the seller posting the ad. So your comment of it sitting for a long time is not true.

FWIW I didn't say it wasn't noticeable, I said it was about we same as any other auto to manual.
Take an 04 tl auto for a ride then drive an 04 tl manual. That difference you experience is about the same as auto NSX to manual NSX

Very nice pick up. Beautiful color.
Someday for me.
5 member family just makes it impractical. Maybe when my son heads to college.

Its deflated and not a normal spare.
The NSX used a "folding spare tire" that takes up less space, allowed for a lower hood profile and weighed less (compressed air is weight). They also came with a compressor to inflate it. Side note, they warn you not to use the compressor for more than 15 minutes or it may overheat and die.

Pride V2 Exhaust installed. Other than wheels maybe eventually, this is the only mod I wanted to do.
What a night and day difference.
It's the replica of the gt one 5.1 exhaust based off the F1 platform.

Here you go. I can't embed for some reason.
It doesn't nearly translate to the real sound from video to in person but it's a huge difference.

Thanks everyone!
Even inside the cabin it sounds great.
There is a bit of drone around 2200-2500rpms but tolerable for me, and with the windows up it's not as bad. The shop says the tone will adjust for the better around 500-1000 miles so looking forward to how it sounds then.

UNCTYPE-S....OMG! Congrats on your NSX! She/He looks amazing and in such great condition. It is nice that people look after their vehicle and obviously, the previous owner took great pride in it.
