Also, really digging that red Celica GTS convertible in the driveway. I'm not sure if that's yours but looks cool.
that is rather cute
I'll have to drive it more to find the quirks but was really just saying it wasn't a better car than the new nsx. I've just had the 458 for 2 days. Doubtful the yellow 458 will get more attention than my orange gallardo spyder did but I prefer less attention
yup thats mine as well as the saleen. I really like my 80s cars but the wife cant stand them. I get thumbs up all the time in the celica
I love 80's cars too. My favorite 80's car that my wife couldn't stand was my 1988 Chrysler Conquest TSI
Man love the starion esi/conquest tsi especially in cannonball run 2. My buddy had one new back in the 80s so I remember riding in it, the gauges, steering wheel, etc
Ye automotive gods, that driveway.....a Saleen Mustang, too? *faints*.
I remember when the business media used to write articles about Honda's successful sports car strategy in the 90s (Integra, Prelude, NA1-2, and to a lesser extent Legend Coupe, et al)

If the NSX is aimed at people who need a cupholder in their "supercar" I made the right decision going a different direction. Hard to even notice a black NSX being in that picture with that nice yellow Ferrari parked there.
I was just comparing them, they both have cupholders its just 1 works better than the other for me. My Gallardo spyder and boxster spyder didnt have a cupholder and I was ok with that but if you incorporate one make it useable. Since so many claim the side clip on nsx one is terrible. I prefer my bikes to any car anyway. 2 wheels > any supercar. I just use the cars as cars and am just as happy driving my celica or saleen. The cars don't look much different while I'm driving them but people's reactions differ and of course useability and feel matter as well. When I drive the expensive cars I feel like an older guy with means. When I want to feel like I'm 16 years old again the 80s cars fit the bill. I can complain about those cars as well but already know what to expect from them already and like them for what they are
I remember that Jalopnik had an article making fun of the supposedly factory option Ferrari 458 cup holder, in CARBON FIBER, that retailed for $3,550!!!

you stopped at McD and JITB?
This thread.... Like a high powered nail gun to a coffin for Acura’s halo car. I wished for different outcomes. But here we are comparing a 2018 to a 10 year old spec Ferrari all motor car. The mark was apparently missed by galaxies. Nobody is talking about the car anymore, we are talking about old Ferrari’s on an Nsx forum. Kinda sad for the brand. Times sure change. It is a rare car for sure, I will give Acura that. Rare as in, nobody wants them.:frown:
But honestly, can you blame people? You can buy other brands and drive into a dealer for upgrades. Maybe Acura needs to bring back a Comptech or mugen type upgrade for the new car? It’s just sickening to sit back and watch.

Its not that bad...its a fine car for someone looking to be different in the 2 seat midengine sports car world...it provides a level of owner comfort being an acura . It is easy to live with as long as you realize how far the side view mirrors stick out...the ability to go 5 miles all electric is cool. Not everyone shopping for such cars wants the bravado of the competition...the audi r8 also ticks some of those same boxes..but imo it is not as striking looking.
There’s lots to like to like about the car. The issue I think here is, it has no dominant personality in a supercar world. Yet, it tries to fetch the same price as such a dominant supercar brand/model. I won’t hinder this thread anymore. I m just tired of seeing this thread as the the only new topic posted here....
It’s a very sad time for Honda. But they did give us a turbo front wheel drive civic straight from the depths of fast and furious hell 20 years late in the form of the ugliest 4 door car I have ever feasted eyes on.
My last post here. Off to better things with my time.
Yeah but thats after the gym to pick up food for everyone else except me. The 2017 nsx scrapes going to JITB so I just walk across the street and mcd's is already in the same parking lot. Rather not feel like a dumbass pulling into JITB using my BOGO coupons
