    NSX vs. Ferrari 328 GTS

    The 328 is a wonderful automobile. One that has been taken car of and has very low low milage is a special car to own. I have owned 2 328's and found them both to be a very emotionally fulfilling ride. These cars are dated and the power and speed stat are have been equalled by some very...

    Maserati 4200 GT Coupe vs. Next Gen NSX

    Juice has hit the nail on the head. If Honda want to make a cheap, hot, fast car they have already done it with the S2000. Very fun to drive and at a great price point. The fact is that horsepower and weight ratios are getting real cheap. Look at the dropping times for 0-60 over the past 15...

    Anyone know who bought the 91 from Spingfield?

    I do not know anything about cars sold by Motorcars International on Ebay, but I know that cars they sell on their web site are very clean. I bought a very clean car from them and it was exactly as claimed. MI and the other dealers in Springfield MO are a very unique lot of car lot people...

    Time to say "Goodbye"....

    I bought my wife a Lexus SC430 and I found it to be a very special car. Very solid and pretty zippy. The navigtor system and Mark Levinson (sp) sound system are the BEST. The roof is slick. My wife traded a 1998 M3 BMW conv for the SC430. She loves the "thumbs up" she get from everybody...

    Rayco Eurospec Motorcars in PA

    When I drove 6 hours to look at the Rayco NSX and the 348ts I showed up in a new Lexus LS430 and a $20,000 Rolex. I got to SIT in the cars. I did not even get a ride. I ask technical detailed question concerning belt and 348ts repairs. They seemed to be well informed, but Ferrari dealers...

    Rayco Eurospec Motorcars in PA

    I think I saw this car. Red/Black small scratch r upper rear--easily fixable. Clean but not showroom. I did not drive it. I went to look at a Ferrari 3348ts and the NSX. I was a serious buyer who waas trying to pick between these two cars. They really did not offer to let me drive either...

    An interesting aftermarket stereo installation!

    Looks like a Sony with a MiniDisk and CD player combo jammed into the glove box. CD is okay but who plays MiniDisks? Not the best ergonomics. I would have spent the money on a cd changer in trunk on an aftermarket one in the glove box. The Bose stereo in the car is a very nice system.

    Tool Kit Search...again

    I have seen a couple postings on the search for the tool kit in the foam tray. Don't you just hate it when people sell their NSX and keep the tool kit?? This is the second time this has happened to me. I now have a 1998 NSX-T and I think all the kits are the same, but there was some debating of...

    Im Getting Mad at Sites with Slow NSX 0-60's

    PS the Z06 looks a lot like every other vette to me. I see hundreds of vettes everywhere I go..that is boring to me. When I see an Aston Martin, I feel that that is special. I had a vette for 3 months once. Convertible..I love cars that the top can come off. Z06 can't do that. Anyway, the...

    Im Getting Mad at Sites with Slow NSX 0-60's

    [It is not just 0-60 that makes the NSX..that only pne part of it it is the whole package that makes a true sports car. Sure the Z06 is a great car..probably the best vette yet (finally an acceptable car) but I don't like the package. The 2002 BMW M3 is a much better package than the Z06 and I...

    how do you afford this

    AFFORD IT!!! THe NSX is very inexpensive for what you get. Hand-made aluminium master peice. Balance, controlled, pwerful, what a sound. And you can drive it to work and put 100K miles plus on it. I had a 355 Ferrari that one toooo wide. It was powerful! But it just did not feal like a...

    stereo upgrade advice

    As in a personal opinion and therefore comments such as "better taste" or "worse taste" are entirely subjective and, frankly, pointlessly insulting and denigrating.[/B] Hey.. I am not insulting anyones taste.. I am infact saying that if you spend your money on more and varied music you will be...

    stereo upgrade advice

    STEREO: I AM NOT A BOSE FAN! I hate it when people want to buy Bose (for the home)because it is a nice sound and the speakers are small! Toooo directional and the sound is not like you are there. In cars true sound is hard to do. True sound is not BOOMMM BOOM BASS. True sound is what a...

    What price will the '02 be?

    The price will be the same. Honda/Acura does not care what the price is in the hopes of selling more cars. They would need to sell 2500 NSXs per year to break even. They only sell about 300 in the world per year. It is an image thing. They sell thousand of civics and acura rsxs pumping the...
