I live In Baton Rouge, and drive a Black on Black, 96 NSX-t, with aftermarket Montage Wheels, Koni adjustable shocks, lowered 1 and 1/2 inches, comptech intake and headers, JDM dark "H" tailights, black "H" badge on the front, and Taitec Parallel Exit Exhaust.
I get literally 15-25 comments on how beautiful the car is every day I drive it. I do roofing sales out of it, with a cool fold up ladder that fits in the trunk. My bosses at first told me I needed a truck, as they thought that driving up to a client's home in the badass NSX would affect my sales because it would make it look like I made too much money, but, the car actually has helped me become the #1 salesman in the company, as people love the car, and at some point in my sales pitch, the car invariably comes up in conversation. It is always the client who brings it up, and, I tell them my truck is on the fritz and so I am forced to drive my "weekender".
When I tell them it is a 96 and I did not pay that much for it, it seems to disarm almost all of the clients. I actually allow customers to drive my car if they want to, and, they almost always sign a contract afterwards.
I have told clients about NSXPRIME and sometimes they go inside while I am on their roof and read about NSXs. It works out well and I sell a boatload of roofs after the frequent Hail, wind, tornado, or Hurricanes. I love My NSX and will probably drive one till they put me in the ground.
BANG FOR THE BUCK, THE NSX IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST CAR IN THE WORLD.
Fianally, me and a friend of mine went to Destin, Florida to watch offshore powerboat races and chck out the chicks on the beach while watching the Ms. Geico pass by at 175mph. A friend of mine owns and drives the Popeye's boat. Anyway, another friend of mine that went with me drove his 5year old Blck corvette ZO6. The first day there when we went out cruising and he told me to drive his car. While it hauled ass, it was soo very cheaply made relative to my much older NSX, I could fell the springs in the seat sticking me in the ass and it seemed to rattle a lot. NOT ONE PERSON EVER SAID "NICE CAR" OR " WHAT THE HELL IS THAT, IT IS BEAUTIFUL."
tHE NEXT DAY I HAD HIM DRIVE MY CAR FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS. AT ALMOST EVERY STOPLIGHT OR PARKING LOT PEOPLE WOULD PULL UP OR YELL OUT STUFF LIKE " COOL CAR" OR THAT THING IS BEAUTIFUL, I MEAN IT WENT ON AND ON, PROBABLY IN EXCESS OF 50 COMPLIMENTS OR QUESTIONS ABOUT THE CAR. ALSO WHEN WE WOULD COMEOUT OF A RESTARAUNT OR STORE PEOPLE WOULD BE TAKING PICTURES OF THE CAR.
MY FRIEND SAYS HE NOW IS LOOKING FOR A NSX. GO FIGURE!!!
