    How Far Do You Drive for Major Service?

    After reading these posts, I'm not going to complain anymore that Science of Speed moved from 20 miles away to 30 miles away. But we all have it relatively easy: while at SOS, the staff showed me a car that the owner, who lived in the Caribbean, had shipped to SOS for repairs/mods.

    Planning to sell. Fix minor issues, first?

    Well, your responses are unanimous, and much appreciated. I'll get it fixed. I stopped at SOS today, they can fit me in, in a couple weeks. Thanks to all. I knew I'd get good advice here.

    Planning to sell. Fix minor issues, first?

    I still love my NSX. I still get that "ahhhh" moment when I sit in it, and again when I start it. But I'm just not driving it any more. It's time for me to move on, to who knows what. So I'm going to sell it. It's a '93 with 70k on it. I had Science of Speed go thru it 4 years ago and they took...

    Opinions on NSX market values

    The new NSX is due out later this year. How much will that affect the value of our cars?

    What on EARTH is going on with NSX prices right meow?

    Maybe the high asking prices aren't so out of this world. An ad went up for an NSX similar to mine, and I thought the price was at least 5k too high. It sold for little less than the ad price....in 10 days.

    C&D article from 1994

    Sorry if it's a repost, but Car and Driver has posted up a great old article on the NSX. It's written by Patrick Bedard, on of the all time best auto writers. http://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/1994-acura-nsx-archived-test-review

    Who still hates the hybrid?

    Hybrid technology allows my wife's Prius Plug-In to get 50-130mpg, which allows me to use more gas even as our household energy usage has decreased. So no, I don't hate the hybrid! Seriously, hybrid technology not only brings mileage benefits, it also allows engineers to build engines tuned for...

    Great write up, NSX-SF.

    NSX Featured in Latest Car and Driver

    Agreed. If Car and Driver has a favorite, it's Honda. Cars from Honda have made the 10 Best list 80 times. In 2nd is Toyota, way down at 38 times on the list.

    Supercar Run #5 - April 5th, 2014

    i was bummed I couldn't go; my busted up shoulder and ribs makes driving the NSX difficult. So instead of doing a drive with 100 exotic sports cars, I went with my wife to the Desert Botanical Gardens. I know, as you read this, you're slapping your forehead and saying "why did I take a trip with...

    Paint or not paint CF hood

    IMO, CF looks cheap. I know it isn't, but it looks cheap.

    Leadership

    Admiral Chester Nimitz. Here's how he got his way when he disagreed with his superiors: His code breakers in Hawaii said the Japanese were going to attack Midway Island. So Nimitz wanted to keep his aircraft carriers Enterprise and Hornet near Midway. Nimitz' superior, Admiral King, had his own...

    You Need To Buy An Acura NSX Right Now

    "After I did that double power treatment I don't even think about other supercars much.... well except a few hyper cars like the Zonda and Koeneggsegg" Agreed. After buying a liter bike, pretty much every car seems a little underpowered to me. But the FEEL, the sights and sounds of even a...

    Looking to add another acura to the stable

    Everyone's needs and desires are different; the TL has a huge power advantage. But for me, it's much too big. Even the '09 and later TSX grew a little too much for my tastes. It also grew a little too much for a 4 cylinder. I look around me during my commute and i see a bunch of huge bloated...

    Coolest Haynes manual ever:

    http://www.haynes.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10001&productId=55055 Edit: Dang it, now the link doesn't work. It's a real Haynes service manual for an SR-71.

    McLaren F1 vs Veyron

    Yeah, nice write up. I learned a couple of interesting things about Atkinson recently: he owns an NSX in addition to the McLaren of the article, and he was the fastest of Top Gear's 'Celebrity in a Reasonably Priced Car' test.

    Ever let an NSX fan that you don't know, drive your car?

    That's funny, Phoen$x! They were definitely getting the better part of that offer, yet they turned it down.

    Ever let an NSX fan that you don't know, drive your car?

    I stopped at a Batteries Plus yesterday, and asked the 20 something behind the counter if they took old motorcycle batteries back for recycling. Without ever making eye contact with me, because he was locked on my NSX, he said "we only take returns if people give us rides in NSXs". I laughed, we...
