Thanks, everyone, for the helpful insights. I have corrected the problem, which was elemental and far too embarrassing to reveal on this august forum.

It's almost more like there is a complete and immediate loss of power. I am thinking some sort of a short circuit. - - - Updated - - - Yes. - - - Updated - - - yes, the car had a security system installed about one year ago.

My 2003 Imola Orange has been great (25k miles) until recently. I do not get to drive it as frequently as I like; at times, the car has sat idle for as long as 3 weeks. The issue is that the car has gone through three new batteries in as many months. Most recently, I replaced the battery one...

Yes, I use it only when conditions warrant.

Haven't tried it with the fan, but I will. In most cars I've owned, the flow of air was good without an assist from the fan.

I would like to hear comments from other owners about the volume of air that the passengers feel when the fresh air intake is open. My car (an '03) seems to be getting fresh air in as if it was passing through a straw. Is this an idiosyncracy of the NSX or is there something I've missed about...

Never having owned a Corvette, but tempted before I bought my '03 NSX, I am curious to hear from any Forum members who have owned both types as to their comparisons and critiques. One thing I do know: I recently parked my Imola Orange car next to a Grand Sport, and the 'Vette came off as a...

Thanks, everyone, for your suggestions. Now for some research and then decision-making time.

Please weigh in on what you have found to be the best sealent treatment (epoxy, etc.) for your garage floor to help keep our beloved NSXs clean. I would prefer a product that can be applied by the purchaser versus a professional service.

I took one out for a highway/local road test on two occasions when I was in sports car evaluation mode prior to choosing the NSX. My experience was therefore limited, but my impression was that it had good balance, a planted, solid sense of stability at speed, and very responsive handling...

Passers-by ask if they can photograph your car.

Thanks for the advice. I had the Dunlop Direzzas mounted and they are fine.

Thank you, gentlemen!

I need to replace all four tires on my '03. Before he left for Afghanistan, my NSX mechanic suggested Falken Azinas (sp?) RT615, one size wider than what I now have. The car currently has Bridgestone Potenza 215/40R17 83Y front and 255/40R17 94Y rear. Can anyone confirm this basic choice and...

Diddy, welcome to NSX ownership! And thank you for you service to our country. I have had an '03 Imola Orange for about a year now (22k mi.) and appreciate it more as time goes by. Other than the recommended servicing, there have been no issues. Don't be afraid to drive it as a sports car should...
