I sold it a while ago, kids are both driving now so I bought a C8, I was looking for an NSX replacement and felt the C8 was closer to the NA than the NC. The 2005 996TTS was heavily modded and ludicrously quick, but surprisingly I wasn't a fan. There was also a massive amount of stress and cost...

Amen. Bought this from another prime member

Nothing sad about that at all, I wish I'd never found it. Now my business basically relies on it and me being connected with the pulse of certain markets. I took a 2 month break in Oct/Nov and I found I was getting more stuff done and was less distracted.

I'll share with steveny. I already told him this thread was revived, so perhaps he will pop in. It was interesting reading my post from 2013. absolutely nothing has changed other than I couldn't be happier with how my kids have turned out. They are 19 and 17 now, junior and sophomore in...

Oops... I though this was turbo2go that I was replying to. Makes more sense now. Interesting post Dave. Obv we are friends on FB and I see your posts there as well, but I had no idea you had gotten married. I am extremely surprised in fact, knowing you loved the single life. But...

Mitch has been the guy for 30+ years when it comes to gen 1 NSX. I was his 1st NSX customer after he left his job at a dealership and opened his own place. Then I sucked in the rest of the NSX locals :).

No issues for me or family. I've had 5 chips implanted.

I'd love to hear a review of the Z06 vs NSX engine/sound. My C8 SR HTC is leagues ahead of my old NSX in every way, except it's missing that high-revving engine. I'm on two waitlists for an MSRP Z06 (probably 2-3 years out) and am thinking that the LT6 will check that last box, and perhaps I...

You really won't. I miss my NSX every day and if I could buy it back for the same price I sold it for, I would also keep the c8. But with what they cost today (ie as much as a c8), the c8 runs circles around it in every way except weight and redline (unless you get your hands on a z06). And...

Thanks for the spam and bringing my ancient post back from the dead. I don't even remember being interested in a scooter this was so long ago

Had 4 vaccinations, covid finally caught up with me this past weekend after air travel. On paxlovid now. My mouth tastes like a sewage plant as a side effect but it knocked out all my symptoms in under 24 hours.

doing my once a year drop in. Still talk almost daily to some of the people I met on this site in the early days. Sold my NSX when my second kid was born, #1 is driving now (doing AutoX with me in his Mini. Also took it to an HPDE @ Palmer last year), #2 has her permit. So it was my turn...

Good to hear from you doc :). Been a while. I am still in touch weekly, if not daily, with so many old timers from this group. The Corvette forum definitely doesn't have what we did here back in the 90s. One of the things that turned me off about Corvettes in fact was the stereotype of an...

After a nearly a year long wait, I take delivery of my C8 in about 10 days. It was built on 3/11, just waiting for it to make its way up north. I am also on two Z06 waitlists. It will be nice to be back in a 2 seater mid engine car after selling my NSX 15 years ago after my 2nd child was...

no affiliation of course :D.
