This is true. I always loved the NSX body. I heard bad things about their reliabilty, atleast in the first gen ones.

when they brought the NSX back is was FAR overpriced for what you got.

HickRocket1258 09-04-2009 08:49 AM

Ha, and you all complain about the american cars reliability.


Morning all.

Thats is the case for any Exotic car though. You aren't paying for just engineering. Its a premium to drive a low production car. If poor people could by a Ferrari, they wouldn't be all that cool now would they.

american cars are generally boring IMO... the only new american sports car id buy is a corvette.

Thats the only choice left. Dodge killed the Viper off. Corvette is a bad ass car. I honestly think it is one of the best platforms on the market.

Toyota and Honda decided that they wanted to only make cars for the masses and not have specialized cars. I grew up a big fan of the Celica and the Supra, Prelude and CRX Si.

Today, Toyota has nothing that resembles a sports car in the model line up. Honda has a CRX Si. Everything else needs after market tuning to make them run like a sports car. It seems that if a model cannot sell at least 25,000 units no company wants to produce it.

Went to bed at 12:30/1, woke up at 5 to get Brandon, went back to bed around 6:45, got up at 9. I had a migraine when I got up at 5, I was thinking if I went back to sleep again, it'd go away. NOPE. 100x worse. Can't find my medicine either. FML.

CHAOS 09-04-2009 09:24 AM

Yes and this I'm not used to obviously. Will probably take me a few weeks to get a grasp on things.
