    From Stuttgart to Takanezawa

    Hey guys and gals

    For the last 10 yrs my weekend fun car has been a modified 1970 Porsche 914/6. Since I'm getting much older i wanted a fun car with more creature comforts and something my wife would enjoy driving and riding in. The Nsx fit the bill perfectly. After putting the Porsche on the market last Nov. (it sold the next day) my search started. The first thing i did was join Prime to do research. There is no better place for information than this site ( thanks to all the members for their contributions). After looking at about 14 or so Nsx's i found what i was looking for. This 92 silver was the one, only 50,000 miles with some tasteful mods ( comptech headers and exhaust). After i had Autowave Catch up on some service, Thanks Shane and his crew, The drive back to Nor-Cal was nothing short of exhilarating, What a great car.

    Thanks again to Prime and all it's great members also Shane at Autowave for all his knowledge and his crew for the meticulous work on the car. Here's some pictures of our new weekend ride

    Cheers

    Excellent! Looks like a beauty - well kept and low miles! I had a 914 2.0 liter that I sold when I got my first NSX - no comparison in creature comfort. The six-cylinders are so rare - and fast (unlike my old 2.0 VW engine!).

    You'll absolutely love the NSX. Congrats! Jay
