The car had 33+K when we started and turned 39K just before we got home. The miles through the corn fields of Kansas were ho-hum, livened up only by getting pulled over for speeding. The officer was nice enough to only issue a warning. But the roads through the hills of West Virginia, the...

Mark--We had a pilot car take us through a four or five mile stretch of the road that had burnt forest on the east side of the road. That was probably the fire that had the road closed when you were there. We also ran into thick smoke about fifty miles west of Rapid City, South Dakota, but it...

We saw a fair number of bikes, both single and double riders. The bikers had even better views than we did, though we had the top off.

My wife and I just returned from a 5K road trip, from Manassas, VA to Salt Lake City, Yellowstone Park, and back home. I've attached a few pics, two that show how we (she) packed. (I took the car cover for parking in motel lots.) If you have the chance to drive the Bear Tooth Highway (it runs...

I'm in. Any day is okay.

I started out to buy an S2000 but after taking each for a test drive, decided on the NSX. The main reason is that I want a car for road trips; I'm close to retiring and plan to see the USA. The NSX seemed more comfortable and prime members confirmed that. I don't drive mine to work much...

jf308 might not have benefited from this discussion, but I did. I'm facing the timing belt/water pump decision right now (mine is six years old with 28,000 miles) and I appreciate the informed judgment of DocL and the rest of you.

Great looking car. I like your house, too. From the little I could see, it looks like New Mexico architecture. Congratulations!

Nice teaser. Let us know more about the trip when you can. And pics, even amateur ones, would be nice.

Welcome, Ken. I have an 04 silver and live in Manassas. Give a holler if you are down this way. My phone is 703.392.3505.

I haven't put my front plate on yet. I carry it in the passenger compartment. I supposed I'll pay for this some day, but the car looks so much better without.

Enjoy, and let us know how the cross-country trip goes. My wife and I will drive from D.C. to Idaho and back this summer, so I'd like to hear your experiences and impressions. I've got a brother that lives in Anchorage. If he sees you in the NSX, he'll do a double take. I've got a silver...

I've got almost 28K on my 04. I won't be going to nsxpo in Vegas, but I am driving from D.C. to Idaho and back this summer. Can't wait to spend some time behind the wheel.

Good looking NSX. I like the stock nsx look, but those black wheels go nicely with the silver body. Enjoy! Mine has been stuck in the garage for over a month because of snow in D.C. Oregon is a better place to own an nsx.

Pohanka has a knowledgeable nsx guy, or at least used to, named John McCain. He took me for a test drive when they had a yellow 05 on the lot last year. He could probably answer a lot of questions for you. He also owns an nsx that he races, so he may let you drive his to compare. What would...

What a difference. Your car looks fabulous. I hope to see it up close before too long; we're in the same general area.

I had my car shipped from Minnesota. The dealer sent the temp tag with the car, but she didn't send the paper work so that I could get the car registered. I drove on expired temp tags for a month before I got mine properly licensed. Luckily I didn't get pulled over. Congratulations...

Good looking car. Congratulations and enjoy!

I bought a 2004 silver last June with 25,000 miles and it cost me a little over $50,000. I looked for six months and found some for less, but never in good condition, or else someone beat me to it. (There was a 2003 in good condition for $45,000, but by the time I had arranged a pre-purchase...

I took mine out for a spin on Saturday. Drove 90 miles and it felt great. I guess we've got another month or six weeks of nsx garage time in the D.C. area. Wish I was spending some of it, like gleibig, in Hawaii.

Good advice on the BRC course. I'll offer to take her for the course once school ends in June. Thanks, too, for Ninja 250 recommendation. If she's still interested after the course, I'll look at the Ninja and at the Kawasaki 500 that Dynamic recommended.

Hey, Dynamic, what a great set of wheels you own. I drove a 1988 Legend with a stick shift for fourteen years. I sold it and bought a TL in 2002, mainly to avoid shifting in this awful D.C. traffic. My daughter, age 16, is bugging me to get her a motor cycle. She's just now learning to drive...

I haven't driven mine since the big snow storm; I only dug out one side of the driveway and I'm still waiting for the snow to melt on the other side. I've been wondering if it's okay to drive on the salty roads if they are dry. I guess I'll follow Patrick and wait for the rain to clear the...

Justin--When I was in college, I spun Porsche 356 and, like your spin, it scared the hell out of me. Even though I was lucky (like you, I didn't hit anything) I was an overly cautious driver for a long time after that. If you can afford to keep your NSX, by all means do. I sold my 356 while...
