You don't exactly have a long commute, so for the few days it snows it shouldn't be an issue.

I say do it. NSX may not preform like an Ferrari or cost as much, but it turns heads just as much as any Ferrari or other high price exotic.

Might want to get an insurance quote before you get your hopes up. I was shocked when I heard what it would cost to cover the car. They said repair costs were ridiculously high.

If you driving record is good the insurance won't be all that high. I know for a fact.

I have an 04 TL that is my daily driver and I gave my old daily (95 Int GS-R) to the wife for her to drive.
I really enjoy taking the car out on the weekends and having a good time with it. The maintenance is very low, heck, it's a Honda afterall. Just make sure it has had the timing belt/water pump done and depending on the year of it to check for the snap ring issue.
The car should provide years of pretty much trouble free driving.


Matter of fact...I do.

I guess you're not fooling around...

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-parts-sale-361/sold-fs-2001-rjsd-acura-cl-s-w-navi-350398/

Good price on that too... It's a Firm price, but still an excellent price...

I might have to start a "discussion" thread about the black market post in the 2G CL forum
