    Sorry to tell you folks, the NSX is NOT an exotic.

    I know. I had an 01, which I bought new In my five years of ownership I: 1. Never pulled a muscle getting in or out. 2. Never had to install a new steering rack because the old one was bad from new. 3. Never had the shifter not go into reverse because of a part that was supposed to be...

    Will an Elise satisfy me?

    I'm getting the itch for another fun car and I'm thinking of an Elise. I didn't drive my NSX as much as I wanted to because I wanted to keep it like new and was afraid to get that 'first chip'. I think this was because the NSX is so finely finished and is revered for its build quality and...

    Well.... It's that time... Good bye to a great group.

    It's been four good years, but I finally did it. I sold my car even though it felt bad, I believe I did the right thing for me. But I didn't sell it to just anyone. I found a GREAT home for it where it will be happy, and more importantly, it will bring joy, excitment and happiness to its new...

    Audi S6 information.

    My daily driver is a 97 Audi A6 wagon. I was recently looking at the S4, but it is a bit small for me and I really do use the wagon all the time to haul things around the house. I'm thinking up upgrading to an 02 or 03 S6 Avant and have a daily driver that is a bit more fun. Does anyone...

    I'm so confused my head hurts.

    So here's the deal. I have a compulsion to keep my vehicles as nice and clean as possible. In the case of the NSX, that means not using it much and only parking it in careful locations. Because of that I've put 17K miles on it in 4 years and it doesn't have the first scratch inside and out...

    Courtesy trade. Did I act inappropriatly?

    I just had an experience, which bothers me to the point that I’d like some opinions. I originally posted this to the Marketplace buyers/sellers, but when I read the rules it says that is not a discussion forum, so I’ll post here. Sorry. I struck a deal to sell my NSX for an agreed amount...

    Anyone have a high-end gas range with grill?

    I'm looking to buy a new range for the kitchen. I'm learning about DCS, Thermador, Wolf, and Bluestar. These ranges are available with a grill. Does anyone have one? Do they work well, or is grilling indoors a bad idea? I have a good grill not far outside that I use now all year, but it...

    Need paint expert's advice

    A bubble has developed on the surface of my Audi. What you are looking at is the corner of the plastic spoiler above the rear hatch window. About two weeks ago, I notices a raised bubble in the clear coat. It has since flattened out and increased in diameter to that of a dime. The surface...

    Can you identify this relay

    I have an HID kit by autolampsonline which includes two relays. One of the relays got water in it and corroded. I fixed it for now, but I'd like to buy a new one. Can anyone identify the relay? Is it a common headlight relay? It does not show the manufacturer. It has the numbers 02.024B...

    15,000 service coming up

    I asked my dealer about the 15K service and he said the only thing that shows is to inspect the air cleaner and change oil and filter. I change oil and filter every 3K miles or twice a year. He did not mention anything about replacing brake fluid, coolent, trans oil, or anything else. I...

    To buy extended warranty or not to buy.. that is the question.

    I'm getting close to the decision of letting my car run out of warranty, or buying the 7 year 50,000 extended warranty for around $2500. For the people who had the choice to make, what would you do.

    Do your sun visor tips line up evenly?

    For people with the T roof. From new my left sunvisor tip (nearest to the rearview mirror) is about 1/2 inch lower than the right visor tip. They don't line up evenly. Does anyone else have this problem? I'm thinking it may be an improperly made sunvisor. I wonder if warranty will cover the...

    Why I pulled my NSX from the For Sale list.

    I've gotten several PMs asking why I decided not to sell my NSX at this time. First, let me tell you why I was thinking of selling it. 1. My present job has little job security after GE bought the company I’ve worked for for 23 years. 2. I and two partners have started a computer company...

    Thats right! now I'm a two mid-engined family :) a 1985 Toyota MR2 (first year). 119,000 miles. Great condition. And, I bought it from the origonal owner. About three years ago he took it out of storage and had major work done to put it back in driving condition including new timing...

    I had my windshield piller covers replaced.

    My pillar covers developed bubbles on both sides on my 01. After waiting close to a year for the covers to come in, they were replaced under warranty and look GREAT. The covers have been redesigned with more of a hard plastic surface. I don't think the new ones will bubble like the old ones.

    Is storing the top in its holder for long time bad?

    I keep my top off my NSX-T for weeks during the summer. Is it bad to keep it stored in its holder above the engine cover? It does get hot in there. Has anyone had heat damage to the top's pain, seals, or headliner? Thanks

    Can you negotiate a lease buyout?

    The lease on my 01 Acura CL TypeS with Navi is about to expire. This is my first leased vehicle so I don't have experience. I may want to buy the car at the end, but I think the residual of $17,500 is too high. Can I make them an offer and will they deal? Or, is it by the book; pay the...

    Costco gas OK for NSX?

    My Audi dealer just told me the reason my 107,000 mile A6 has carbon deposits and needs cleaned is because I use Costco "cheap" gas. I've used the same costco (93 octane) gas in my NSX since new. Is this just bull, or should I get gas from a name brand station. I don't want harm the NSX by...
