I'd love to have a NSX. I just couldn't get it into my driveway.

Precipitous curb-like driveway entrances FTL.

You need to fill in the blanks here... I'm sure we'll get a full report after the "break in"

Torque ? Less NVH ?? details.. but after you're had time to fully evaluate it...

Instead of spending tons of money on "focus groups", automakers should just lurk in cartalk to find out the lastest trends for auto buyers

I guess congrats. I don't see what the appeal is for a NSX. It's not a great car in my opinion. The BMW even though I hate BMW's was a far superior car.
Anyway good luck with it.

Damn, an NSK, what the heck! so what are the plans for it? I hope that car gets to see some track time.

Guess we'll have to add an NSK forum for synth and jesal.

FAIL!


Also its kinda hard to compare a 14 year old NSX to a year old 335. Of course the 335 will have more technology but the NSX just feels more raw.

Will explain later once i actually get some sleep. Also Jesal is never buying a NEW car again. What a waste!
