Its almost exactly one year ago that I bought my first Nsx. I bought a 2002 Nsx, New Formula red with black leather interior. It was the most expensive car I had ever bought, but it was something that I worked very hard for, and frankly, deserved. Its helped me relax on hundreds of occasions, gotten my blood pumping whenever I rocketed onto the freeway, allowed me to meet lots of interesting people through ownership/Nsxprime.
First picture of the car I took :
It had those horrible chrome wheels, and suprisingly, three of the four wheels were bent. The two front tires were worn out and showing cords.
In addition to having all four wheels stripped, and then refinished in silver, replacing all the tires, over the last year I also :
Had an alignment done
Installed Dc sports headers
Installed Comptech muffler
Installed intake duct
Installed fenders, door clear bra myself
Had the bumper clear bra'ed done by a professional :frown:
Replaced the windshield that was cracked by a rock on the highway
Replaced the rear view mirror that was never the same after the new windshield.
Replaced the front lower plastic trim on the bumper
Replaced the shift knob
Installed new alarm system due to car dealership, or previous owner, or both losing original remote controls
Installed Smartenna
Redid the window tint with a lighter shade
Hand washed, and waxed it myself with Griots Garage products many a time.
I love this car, and look forward to many more years of ownership. I generally dont own cars very long (ie, 1-2 years) however I dont see myself tiring of this car anytime soon. Its my dream car, and Im loving it !
Now a picture of my awesome car, and my awesome Gf of almost 3.5 years when we were at the beach this last weekend : (Edit, gf is paranoid of losers/freaks getting ahold of her picture so I have to edit this, how ridiculous, I cant even post a picture of my car and gf on the internet !)
