Default I've always thought of the NSX as a "cheap" but expensive sports car

that is until people mod them. As in put a turbo in, wide body kit, nice set of rims/tires(nice wide ones in the back). I've seen a couple in real life and they were all older nsx's that were stock. The older stock models had a generic look, but they can all look great.

After browsing youtube, I found some real nice vids of them and I'm suprised more people don't have one if they can afford newer 30-40k cars.

Here's some nice ones I found, this will be another car on my "wanted" list.

Wow...

The NSX is just a cheaper looking version of the S2000? I don't know whether to laugh or cry.

The last NSXs made were 10+ years ago, so yeah, they look a little dated. The performance however is truly indescribable on a road course. They still to this day are the top runners in their classes along with owning Time Attack records and trophies of all kind. S2000, not so much.

People don't own them because they are not new, they are not fast (straight line fast), and they are a lot of money for what most people will be able to get out of them.

I never said cheap looking s2000. And when you add a turbo and other engine mods it will have very good acceleration and top speed. That's all I was saying.

Umm... what? They stopped making the NSX in '05 I believe... in '02 they ditched the flip-up headlights for fixed HID headlights.


Acura NSX fun fact #372: The NSX's design greatly influenced the design of the McLaren F1
