    I live here in Fresno... I believe I've seen a red pre '02 and a silver '02 around quite a bit. I drive an '04 Esprit now... sold my'03 a while back. Still like the NSX thou.. Am looking to add an early NSX at some point.

    Bakersfield California??

    I live in Fresno, CA, and have gone to Bakersfield many times. Best of both worlds here in the Central Valley of California. The weather is great, bought a new large house for $130K several years ago, I'm 45min from great lakes, skiing, mountains, great driving roads, 1.5hr from ocean...

    I think I got what you all want

    Take a Camaro, give it 500HP, give it an amazing suspension, and have it beat a Ferrari 430 on the track... In the end... most people will want the Ferrari, NSX, etc... BTW- My friend has modified his VW Bug to the point of beating most cars at the track (local autocrossing & track...

    NSX v C6

    At my Lotus gathering earlier in the year we met up with a Noble owner club member, and I was able to ride with him a bit. I was also able to drive for a short distance as I was afraid of controlling the power. All I can say is HOLY SH*T.. It's SCARY... The closest I'll ever get to feeling like...

    I think I got what you all want

    I truly see you point. Just like the "All New Lotus Esprit", even when it comes in '08, we won't afford it till 2010. By that time, there will be a flood of other great cars out there. The current NSX might still be the best bet. We (or should I say "I") will have to wait another 5 to 7...

    Drove a 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 Twin Turbo--MY REVIEW

    Thanks Registered User.. Wow! You really think so?? WAIT... are you being sarcastic?.... :wink: NsXMas- Hope you had a great 4th of July. Fresno is at about 100f at this time... I'm sure you recall the crazy summer heat out here. You're right about how NSX owners are classy. One huge...

    Drove a 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 Twin Turbo--MY REVIEW

    Paul- That was very well put... If I could revise my car selection, I would have kept my NSX along with my S4s Esprit. You have a great choice of cars. Congrats! Netviper- I know you were dissapointed with the early '90 SE Esprit. The '95.5 -96 S4s('96 outside of US only) is a much...

    Drove a 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 Twin Turbo--MY REVIEW

    I don't own an S4.... I own an S4S. I've owned a 2003 NSX for 2 years.... I KNOW what I'm talking about. The V8 did 0-60 in about 4.3 and the S4S will do it in 4.4 0-100 in 10.5 approx for both. (These are Official Lotus figures) My old V8 Esprit and my S4S Esprit would beat my NSX... Don't...

    Drove a 2002 Lotus Esprit V8 Twin Turbo--MY REVIEW

    I owned a '90 Esprit SE, then moved up to the 2000V8 Esprit. I then sold the Esprit to purchase a 2003 NSX. I thought it would be a step up, but I was wrong. I now own a '95 Esprit S4s... Simply amazing car! THe NSX was great, but my heart is with Lotus. Performance/etc.. reasons: *The S4s...

    Michelin teams to boycott Indy USGP?

    Re: Bar-Honda is a Total Disgrace All great points. As for the two race rules violation, F1 Magazine had an aritcle form the FIA stating that BAR-Honda did know very well about the fuel containment issue, and still decided to covertly race, and not address this modification. Nevertheless...

    Michelin teams to boycott Indy USGP?

    Bar-Honda is a Total Disgrace Not only are they whining about rules, being banned from certain races for cheating, and having the WORST season EVER in Honda history of motorsports, they can't even mount up the courage (balls) to race with their Michelins. I think they would have gained a bit...

    Anybody disappointed in Bar-Honda this year?

    Very disappointed! They might actually lose to Manardi this year. If they keep this up, I can easily see Honda pulling out of F1. I will put money on it!
