i REALLY like the flag stitched in the door and seats!!!! I got a bunch of stuff sitting in boxes to do to my car. Lookin good.

Sik bro....No tacky parts, all well integrated. Tasteful PERIOD.

The seat material has a carbon fiber look but is flexible enough for upholstery. I was a little hesitant at first but I like the end result.

Always thought your car was well thought through. Especially like the exterior since I first saw your NSX on prime. Interior looks very nicely done! Personally would like the dash all in dark color(black?).

 

[SWIFTVISION]

You have the nicest NSX in the world. Congrates!

Very very very nice!

 

[TurboLexus]

Looks great Dr Warnick.

Okay...so I have to ask. With no gauge clusters, how do you know how fast you are going, or what your mileage is?

The speedometer and tachometer are projected on the windshield like the M5. The gas gauge and odometer are hidden in the center console.

Wow! Cool. Do you have any pictures of that?

 

[nsxtcy85]

This car is even more amazing in person. Nothing over looked.

No pictures of those features but I will get a few when the car returns.

Way to be extra creative on the dash! Looks like a lot of fiberglass work was put into it. The dash looks a bit too minimalistic and clean IMO; kind of like on a hybrid car. Looks like a car interior from the Jetsons. I'd still like to have all the vitals of the car and gauges clear and right in front of me. The screen is huge! Kudos for going a different route and for the work that was put into it!

 

[Big_D]

Well Done! The car is beautiful and the interior is awesome. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful Ron. Car never ceases to impress. I hope your board meeting doesn't fall on NSXPO again this year being that it's in your backyard!

Cheers,

I have you and Will Cantrell to thank for a wonderful car that I will cherish forever.

And yes, I will be at NSXPO this year!:biggrin:

jump back, jack - woof, what a car!

 

[BioBanker]

I love everything about your car, except the dash. Always thought it was once of the nicest NSXs around.

 

[NO TKTS]

My goal was to modernize the interior and bring it up to the level of the exterior of the car. We incorporated the Grigio Alloy color and carbon fiber accents into the new interior along with LED lighting similar to what you would find in the Audi A8.

We recognized that the new dash would be viewed as somewhat extreme by NSX purists but we kept to our original vision. Spade Kreations started with a "clean slate", took cues from the HSC concept car sketches, and created this modern design. I am very pleased with the end result and I look forward to showing the car at NSXPO.

Thanks for your interest! :biggrin:

Awesome setup, love the dash, seats and door inserts. I'm an interior nut myself and that is just awesome!

Wow, that is some talented custom work on the interior! While it's not my taste, I really commend the shop in Ohio that did the job. They are leaps and bounds more talented than say the wannabes over at UNIQUE, which btw, I can't see how a shop that only knows how to build rectangular sub boxes has it's own show!

 

[csudhoff]

I remember when John H. was going to help out with this project. Car is absolutly amazing!

Rick & the guys @ Spade do great work.
Once again amazing machine!

How was the fit and finish on the C.S. widebody?

 

[SPADEKREATIONS]

thanks for the props:biggrin:
