Very cool.....congrats.....maybe with some airtime and the fact that acura is trying to release another NSX people will notice, and value will go up......We all win!!!!

**omgnsxy** · 01-20-2012, 13:47

I will definitely watch for your car. Please let us know when it airs

**Blacknot** · 01-20-2012, 13:58

Thats cool. I remember you telling about this when we met at Nsxcapades. Seems like a cool experience. Your car is awesome

This was probably the most popular episode out of all 13.

Watch it and you will see why.

OP here

The Producers really do play it up with the owners. I have to admit I did things I normally wouldn't do but at the end of the day, its all about having fun!

During your interview process, they say it is 50% your vehicle and 50% your personality. Have fun with it, the more fun you have, they more fun it will show on TV.

Honestly I do not know if I will watch it considering how silly I was but you know what, I had fun!

I have never seen a NSX on this show...maybe you were watching something else but this is the first Acura on the show.

I meet Ginny next Saturday when she comes in for the final taping. I can't wait!

**Chu_Viet** · 01-20-2012, 21:12

sweet episode.. didn't get to see that one.. you think your nsx could beat that tesla??

**8400RPM** · 01-21-2012, 01:51

I've watched the show once or twice but felt they were kind of stupid about picking which cars were better. Also the people acted dumb. It will be fun to watch your NSX on there. Make sure you post the time/date of when the episode will be on and I'll set my DVR!
Congrats!!

All of the other contestants that participated in that show loved the Tesla. Even though it appeared stock, everyone LOVED the blast of power. 0-70 in less than 3 seconds and you couldn't hear it.

If I went up against the Tesla, I think I would win seeing how my car is more balanced and overall more attractive than the others.

We will see!

**NSXchnk** · 01-21-2012, 11:41

congrats! thanks for keeping the car looking classy and representing the NSX community!

We wrapped up shooting this past weekend and to answer your question, Yes, I got to meet Ginny. She is cute and really nice!

I have seen that show once but did they cancel it? Have not seen any commercials for it at all.

**arfnsx** · 02-05-2012, 15:30

They had 13 episodes the first season and they just filming 13 more for the next season beginning/airing February 26 or so. They recorded 4 episodes in L.A., 4 in Dallas and 5 in Atlanta.

**Dynamic-uzed-auto** · 02-05-2012, 15:59

Representing the NSX ownership very well

**VampNSX** · 02-07-2012, 01:18

How much HP power is in your car? Last thing I want them to say is what a slow car. I had to supercharge my car just to not be slower than family sedans. At 446 whp i finally feel fast. I hate to admit this but before I felt like a turtle it was just to slow for me.

My car currently is 455 lo-boost 488 hi-boost (only for beating select vehicles)

The funny thing is before your car is unveiled the other owners try to guess what kind of vehicle you are driving based on your personality up until that point.

When they saw my NSX, they expected something more. That had me figured to be in a Ferrari or something like that. But quickly after driving my car, they understood why I didn't have one. I was driving a faster and a more reliable version of a Ferrari (at least this is what they told me face to face)

This is my favorite!

Man they find some dirty hot girls for this show. Not to derail the thread...

**JLCoolman** · 02-24-2012, 22:00

congrats Alex!

anxiously waiting to see your episode and find out the results,
here's hoping you won

it was really cold during filming right? I feel bad for Ginny having to wear those short shorts and that small top (I'm guessing after the episode, you'll be able to add a few more pictures to the "Girls and NSXs" thread

)

and to the other posters that are taking the show so seriously, come on seriously??

it looks like fun regardless if you have to "act out", and I'm happy for Alex

**GhettoRacer** · 03-08-2012, 05:02

SWEET. haven't seen this series yet. i hope the video editor is a true car enthusiast and don't botch the job. looking forward to seeing it!!! way to go Alex.
