An NSX is just a variation on an RSX, right?

Sure, if you have absolutely no idea what these cars are!

Let's say you are a programmer who works on the website for the City of Chicago's vehicle registration department (it's actually considered part of the City Clerk's office). Someone gives you a list of model names that need to pop up on the website when someone wants to register an Acura. You've never heard of an NSX, so what do you do? You combine it in the same category with the RSX; after all, the names sound the same, so they must be similar cars, right? And when city residents go to register their Acura cars on the website, they encounter a screen that looks like this:

Man, that's bad business systems analysis. Brings my profession to shame :( hehe



on a side note try explaining to all your 24-25 year old friends that you bought an NSX...99% have never heard of it and think I got an RSX...lame!

Hmm..

I guess they have never played GT3 then. Lot's of people recognize the car, simply because of the PS2 game :)

Don't tell 'em about it! If it's a value-based registration fee, you might save some money next time! I wish the state of AZ would make the same mistake!

Thats the first thing that popped into my mind too!
Hot Damn, i can register my NSX for RSX prices? Excellent!
Although from an earlier thread i think these "dumb" gov't officials are smart enough to reject the socialist variable registration fees as us Californians...

Must be a Candadian thing then, LOL. Quite a number of gals in NorCal know exactly what a NSX is :D

Ken

Indeed NSX are extremely rare in Canada

And the girls I deal with are really dumb, every car they drive is one make and model: Daddy's Car

It's not value based. It's the same amount for all cars under 4500 pounds. This year, they increased the fee for cars of 4500 pounds and up.

Take a look at Goodson Acuras site: http://www.goodsonacura.com/

They don't even list NSX as an option in a used car search! And that is an ACURA dealer!!!
Most used car search functions are programmed so that they only display the models for which they have used cars in inventory. So that makes sense, assuming that they don't have any used NSXs for sale.

I dont think so Ken. When they DID have a used NSX for sale, I had to search ALL Models just to find it.

Oh well, maybe NSX Service Girl can do something about that... ;)

That's cool. I think they should have raised it to several times that amount, and the money should go into a fund for the hospital bills of the people they run into with those bloated road-hogs!:)

I guess that's what you get when you outsource your IT dept to India, and your programmer has no clue what an NSX is. :D

NSX is not available in India? And if it were, would if still have leather seats?
 
preowned inventory...

Ken and Dave...Our website has gone thru tons of changes in the past year but this is how the web inventory is currently posted. If there is such car in stock then it will be listed, and only then. So you can see that currently preowned has no NSX's, no Volvos nor Audis either......but if you look at the online NEW car inventory you will see an NSX listed because we have one on the show room floor :)
