I know of at least three of them here in Anchorage. Four supposedly. This one's mine. It's a silver 2004.

The missing factor from these threads is that nobody considers that the thing you like about the sound of an F1 car is part doppler effect. Your position relative to a dynamic sound wave. The sort of... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzZZZZZZZZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmm sound that you like is because...

Don't know who it is but there's somebody on this board that will be along right quick to tell you you can't get F1 sound out of an engine that redlines at 8k. ...and he's right. To my ear the higher pitched exhausts just make the NSX sound high pitched. Not F1-ish.

Welcome to the asylum. You're going to dig that car. I've only put 11k on mine so far but every time it's like getting into a new car and every time I'm reminded that although I burn through vehicles like socks... this one will probably be in the stable for quite a while.

Bryonj... I would like to use your cap holder.

Weak. If you don't want them driving your vehicle make that note on your work order and put the mileage number down. If they blow you off the first thing to do would be to complain and the second would be to make sure the charge is denied on your visa card until you've gotten satisfaction...

Oh ho, man ! Two oil changes. Other fluids swapped out or tested. Fresh tires. And a post purchase inspection that confirmed that I had just bought exactly what I wanted. Outstanding trip. Made it back to Alaska in one piece and had a gas. Took a few pics but I suck with a camera so I...

50 kliks is only 30 miles so somebody got that part squared away long ago. I've been a fan of running a few heat cycles through the engine fairly quickly so that the whole thing's done and done right by the time the crosshatching's gone but that's all been decided too so a little gentle time is...

Not all the way for sure. I'll put it on a steamship in WA. Route isn't sorted yet and I still haven't got a handle on meetings I'm supposed to be at, etc. Short version though is that I'll pick it up in Springfield and then drive to SC for a few meetings and then the route back hasn't been...

Wow. I hadn't considered that. I'll give 'er a little special attention and thanks for the reminder. Odd how that might be even a consideration on a six or seven year old vehicle. Cool, too. No red wheels, Tim... noooooo. I agree, that would be bad. Think small. Sort of a "the closer you...

Thanks all... and I ain't much for giddy anymore but this might just do it. I forgot to mention the mileage earlier. This car has 2341 miles on the clock. Thanks, Max. Having it wrapped in the full xpel.com kit. Headlights too. We'll see how that works out. Matching silverstone for paint...

Just bought it. Having it wrapped in xpel and will fly stateside Saturday to pick it up. I've actually never sat in one and haven't even seen one in a long long time. There's a longish story behind why I have been wanting one that I won't bore you with but the short version is that I had been...

A "Made in USA" rant on a foreign car fan forum. No irony there.

This is a way too accurate and revolting mental image that's been popping into my head all afternoon.

Perfect, socalx. That's exactly what I was wanting to see and I appreciate the homework you put into rounding that up. Thanks.
