Re: Ebay 14.1k NSX It's a newly established account with only one previous sale. The seller's phone number 802-434-0026 is disconnected.

Great pics. I enjoyed meeting the NSX crew - a friendly & lively bunch. As the day unfolded I gained an increased respect for the 2nd gen NSXs that sandwiched my '77 Maserati Khamsin through the winding roads to VT. They were great performers through the twisties and when passing unsuspecting...

Thanks Pilot! See you on the Bull Run.

Anyone know of a good detail shop in or near Brooklyn? Thanks!

With the exception of the Toyota 2000GT (rated B) & the Datsun 1200/1600 convertibles (rated C), Sports Car Market Magazine has trashed the Japanese cars (eg 91-96 NSX, rated D: "cars that had potential but failed to be successful in the collector car marketplace, often due to design...

Calculations are not really that crude or fuzzy. Slalom & skidpad numbers are all from road and track mag, which always uses a 200 ft diameter skidpad and 700ft slalom with 8 cones. Although 0-100 acceleration can drive the result, the product of slalom x skidpad varies enough to drive the...

Some crude calculations: (g)(slalom)/(0-100): 3.3: WRX; 3.6: RX-8; 4.2: S2000, G35 SC, Ferrari 348; 4.5: '93 NSX, 350Z, BoxsterS, Testarossa; 4.7: Evo7, Ferrari 355S; 5.0: '97 NSX, Evo8, C2, Ferrari 456GT; 5.2: M3cpe, 512TR 5.4: Vanquish 5.6: 355B 5.8: 360S 6.1: '96tt, 550M 6.6: Z06 6.9: '02tt...

US EVO is watered down (No YAW control). Scoobies give Honda reliability and safety.

Ferrari 195 Inter (135bhp; 0-60 9.8sec) Porsche 356 (55 bhp) Alfa Romeo 1900 Supersprint (115bhp) Aston Martin DB2 (105 bhp; 0-60 12.4sec) MG TD (54 bhp; 0-60 21.3 sec) Jaguar XK 120 (160 bhp; 0-60 12sec,0-100 35.3sec) Lancia Aurelia B24 (110bhp; 0-60 12.5sec) Maserati A6G 2000 (150bhp) Austin...

I have a WRX. The turbo packs a great punch and the AWD was great in the recent snow. The car handles better than an M3 cab thru the twisties and doesn't exhibit cowl shake. Unless you "got the bucks" to get salt on an AWD Lambo, the winter car choice boils down to either a WRX or the...

In view of the differences in rigidity, which wil perform better (speed, grip & handling) through the twisties, a 3.0 liter coupe or a 3.2 liter NSX-T?

1) S2000 - NSX is better (1/4 mile & handling) 2) Evo 8 or Evo 8 RS Sprint - Not available; have a WRX which is slower off the line & through the twisties, but cheaper to run. I'll replace it with an STI as long as the styling doesn't attract too many thieves & cops. 3) Z06 - despite great grip...

Any reliable repair shops in or near Sullivan County, New York? ?Fedders Acura in Middletown, NY; or Northeast PA?
