    NSX vs RX7

    Wow that big of a difference from the NSX. I am only 5'9" on a good day, so headroom isn't generally an issue. They other problems, those could be issues though :) Driving characteristics... I guess I meant things like which has sharper turn in, road feel, snap oversteer, feeling planted or...

    NSX vs RX7

    Could you elaborate on what you mean they are not in the same category and why you would never own another? Are you referring to quality/reliability issues, drivetrain layout, etc? Just hoping you could elaborate. Thanks Also, to the poster above who said the RX7 is ugly.... I guess beauty...

    NSX vs RX7

    I know the NSX is better in a lot of aspects. Things like fit and finish, luxury, etc. are clearly better on the NSX. I was specifically asking about the driving characteristics of the chevy powered FD in comparison to the NSX. I was under the impression they are both very good, but wanted to...

    NSX vs RX7

    Personally, I have no interest in traveling down the rotary road. I am interested in the LS swapped cars in comparison to the NSX though. It sounds like they are still very different in character though. Going to be tough to choose.

    NSX vs RX7

    Thank you for your perspective. I feel that this is ultimately going to come down to a decision between building/tinkering vs getting in and driving. It is a tough decision because it is one that I will probably live with for a while. In one respect getting out of an NSX for little or no loss...

    NSX vs RX7

    Well, I was curious to hear people's opinions or experiences with LSx powered FDs in comparison to the NSX. My understanding is that the fit and finish of the NSX is a step or two above and RX7, and that the RX7s other weak spot is the engine (in terms of reliability). A lot of people are now...

    My new plate:

    MKNmoves will get his but probably not anyone else. I saw a minivan in Charlotte about a year ago with "IH8 485" Also, MKNmoves, do you live in the ballantyne area? I saw a late model, yellow NSX leaving turning out onto ballantyne commons the other day and I immediately wondered if it was...

    Health Reform Bill.........

    Jimbo! i totally see what you are saying. I don't want a single payer system per se. I wouldn't mind seeing a very minimal base of services offered to all citizens, with ample room for improvement or supplementation available (and affordable) to citizens who would like it. I am talking very...

    Health Reform Bill.........

    Thanks Steve. I don't expect everyone to agree with me, because I surely won't agree with everyone on here. I do appreciate people putting forward well thought out arguments for both sides of the issue. I wish more of our country would operate in this manner. Also, people say "government...

    Health Reform Bill.........

    Hi everyone and thanks for the welcome. I agree with you on some of the points. GWB2 did do a TON for HIV, TB, and Malaria worldwide. Those are truly noble causes, but they do not have a lot of bearing on US healthcare, at least not directly. I will address medicare part D below. I am not...

    Health Reform Bill.........

    There are definite positives to this bill. Primarily, if you have a pre-existing condition you will now be able to get insurance. Previously people were in a position where if you had a serious, chronic condition you were in trouble. If you did not have insurance at the time of diagnosis you...
