"The Perfect NSX" August Cover of Modified Magazine
I had the pleasure of shooting Jeff's NSX for the August issue of Modified Magazine. Since the issue has finally been released, here are some high res photos of my shoot, as well as some unreleased photos. The article is really good, so I urge you to pick up an issue. You can even get the digital version of Modifed Magazine for your ipad/phone/etc.

IIRC- it's the RDX swap and everything works, including the steering wheel controls.

I have no idea how much money he has into that car but it has to be well over $120k.

And amazingly it looks like it.

That interior is amazing! Exterior is flawless! I'd take this over a Ferrari or Lambo any day.

When I saw the title I was hoping it was this car. It's my favorite NSX hands down.


Edit: Wonder what the mileage is on it?

Synth...you've been bumped for my fav NSX.

That is the definition of a timeless design. It looked like it just rolled out of the factory.

Jeff is a true master of modification. I have known him since the 90s. His talent and Carbon Fiber work is phenomenal. Nice to see his hard work finally recognized by a publication.

This guy puts Acura to shame. He's managed to upgrade the NSX on a 6 figure budget and in a shorter amount of time.
