Wow! Was this just the Stage 1 K Tune running 93 octane then? I run 93-94 octane using Boostane on all my cars as is, so the K Tuner with Stage 1 might be a no-brainer for me.
Do you guys keep the car on a trickle charger/battery tender when not in use for an extended period? And what timeframe would constitute an extended period?
Excellent points, but I'll submit that none of the Holy Trinity showcased the technology that the NC1 did in 2017, i.e. an independent motor on each front wheel allowing for torque vectoring across the front axle. Fast forward several years and Ferrari and Lamborghini now offer that technology...
Great review! To your point, I have also toyed with the idea of an SF90 but I'd have to give up all three cars in my stable to own one and that doesn't make sense. My Plaid is quicker/faster that the SF90 in a straight line. My Turbo S (1 of 500 built) is more exclusive and a better collector...
Agree on all counts, especially that the NSX NC1 is a transitional hybrid and also the reason why I got one. Love the Gen 1, but to say the NC1 doesn't live up to the "NSX" moniker is completely missing the point. If it were analog like the original, it simply would no longer be a "New"...
You bet.
Yeah, our first Tesla was a 2017 Model X 100D that had the leather interior which was not an option on the P100D even though it was the same model year. The Energy graph display also went by the wayside on the newer cars. At least, they brought back the steering wheel as an option...
You know your cars for sure! The interior has the same theme as the exterior with gold cross-stitching and gold threading on the leather to replicate the exterior stripes.
Even the CF on the interior is infused with copper to create the gold speckling - attention to detail indeed!
And...
It sure is. The early days of the pandemic presented a rare opportunity for me to acquire that car. Like most limited edition Porsches, you had to have an invitation to get one new. The original owner bought this one and essentially parked it for two years before selling it back to the dealer...
Thank you! The CF rear spoiler is the only option that wasn't checked which I also thought was unusual but I do like the flow of lines better without the spoiler. Interestingly, the nose beak is in CF which I don't believe was a factory option but absolutely love nonetheless.

Welcome to the club! I'm also a new entrant and prod owner of a 2017 that I purchased recently. Keep us posted on the updates on the car - pictures would be great.
Thank you! Indeed, everyone that sees Nouvelle Blue for the first time has the same reaction.
Thank you! And you're absolutely right...the quest is never over! ;)
Hello everyone! I've been a member here for a few years, mostly lurking and reading about the NC1 and owners' experiences. I'm happy to report that my supercar collection is finally complete. About three years ago, I migrated from the R35 GT-R platform to the 991 Turbo platform by acquiring...
