I like the hidden look of the popups but I don't like the air drag they create. Of course, the only time you would normally have them popped is at night with the lights on and you would be driving beyond the range of the headlights at 130 or so ----which isn't too smart. Crank you car up to 150...

My 92 was in range when I bought it last year with 114k miles---yea everyone said it would probably be ok if it lasted that long--WRONG. It had a slight wine in 2nd gear but no other symptoms till it let go--1-2-1 hard shift---snap ring was in 8 pieces. What happens is the intermediate shaft...

Ridiculous price perhaps--however if you have the money and want a 05 NSX--and you like the color and modifications--it just might give you the bang for the buck you are looking for. Not the fastest, not the latest style, but---who cares if you got the $$ and like the car? Prices are relative...

Another opinion---my wife says she likes the original NSX lines far more then the new design. My son says---the original has the curves of a beautiful women and this has the angles of a Stealth Fighter--not a sports car. Me---I think Honda is trolling for feedback cause they really haven't got...

Sounds to me like a broken snap ring---I would get that checked out yesterday as if that is the case, every minute you drive is making things worse.:eek:

Reverse---without that I can't get out of the garage in one piece.:biggrin:

When someone uses a "stock photo" instead of the actual vehicle--I never bother following up as my experience is that there is a significant reason. Service records are critical on these cars. On mine, the owner died 2 years ago and his widow was selling the car without any records. The local...

That being the case, he owes me two lunches and two washes, etc. hehehehe:tongue:

Had the soft top on my 56 t-bird stored away behind the seat--mice at the leather trim off the canvas. Buddy's GMC pickup had tansmission issues---3 times to the trans shop---$1700. bill only to find mice nested and chewed wires under his fuse box under the hood. Ins paid. Another buddy bought...

WTB 6 speed trans---

Honda manufactured, sold and warrantied their top of the line car with a manufacturing defect. Warranty is a selling tool for the manufacturer. Had they bit the bullet and recalled the cars with the known defect---they would have had a greater cost and perhaps bigger negative news. So, they did...

I LOVE Colorado. My brother and his sons all live in the Denver-Boulder area. Have a great friend Jeff with a 91 NSX (screaming fast with Nitrus) out there. So---how can I say no to that opportunity. For those heading west via I64, perhaps we can caravan a bit? I'm locking in the dates NOW.:biggrin:

A great general mechanic will check stuff that he knows. A NSX skilled mechanic will know specifically what to look for. Trans Snap ring is biggest exposure--but you can't necessarly tell by looking. If it is the trans serial range---just realize that failure could occur anytime and just because...

Hate to say it but the Mustang v6 is a 305hp killer. Even at 3800lbs it is quicker then any stock NSX. Now when it comes to in line--think Porsche 944TurboS---they are light and faster then 911--928s4s--and handle like a gocart. OK now, be nice__________________. Speed and performance the NSX is...

Just to beat a dead horse---Bought my car in Jan 2011 ----was in snap ring failure range (wasn't aware of the issue before I bought the car). Once realized---and as per many a Prime member professed---with the car 19 years old--"if the snap ring was going to fail, it would probably have failed...
