Hey Guys,

I've been a lurker here for quite some time and I don't think I ever truly got around to introducing myself.

I've been an NSX dreamer for the better part of my rather young life (26 years old) and have previously owned (in order): 2000 Nissan Altima SE, 2008 Acura CSX Type S (first car I ever tracked), AP1 Honda S2000 (can't remember the year), 2003 Honda Accord Coupe V6 6spd (surprisingly good tranny/motor combo), 1991 Acura NSX (no explanation needed!!!), 1998 Acura Integra GSR (winter car, blew motor), 1998 Toyota Corolla (pimp-mobile, jk winter car).

Clearly nowhere near what some of you have owned but I love the NSX, its everything I could have wanted in a car. I've lowered it on H&R springs for the time being, bought some 5zigen wheels off prime (nice oem ish look still), HID headlights, LED parking lights and interior lights, and added the Type R spoiler. The CD player in it works intermittently and the left speaker is dead so its all getting replaced in about 2 weeks time.

Going to be doing the water pump and timing belt and the end of summer but aside from that it has been 100% trouble free, no rattles or anything.

Oh and no disrespect to anybody who treats theirs as a garage queen, I bought it to drive it, I feel like that's what it was meant for and that's what I'm going to do!

Currently has 140,xxx km bought it with 106,xxx a few years ago.

Welcome! Wow, the car looks fantastic!! Love the tinted windows, suspension and those wheels -- that is a great pic!

Nothing like a NSX !! Happy Motoring, Jay
 
Beautiful! Looks very much like my '91 Berliner, but I have the OEM wheels and spoiler. Drive it and enjoy!!!

All you are missing is the generic body colored license plate. Great job, great photo.

Yes - and you've demonstrated that I'm not the only NSX owner with a front license plate. (I took it off for my avatar pic.)

win! The car looks awesome! Happy tracking!
 
Nice car, I am a sucker for a good set of 5 spokes on car, esspecially the berlina. Nice Job my friend nice job.
 
Thanks all for the compliments!

Yes I did take the pic I'm an 'on the side' photographer (although nowhere near as good as some of the photogs on this site!). Been a hobbyist for years but have recently tried to clamp down on it and get better with the aim of getting a few shoots here and there.

I live just east of Toronto.
 
Congrats! If you haven't already please join us in the Canadian forum and get yourself a membership to NSXCC!! Something like 50 cars turned out at our Fall Cruise in October! Don't miss out!!
 
Beautiful car nice and clean. Are those 5zigens? Get the SOS front mount license plate holder. It will look much better if you have to sport the front plate.
 
Very sharp... looks fantastic.

I have the SOS stealth license plate bracket. It looks great and can hide my front plate if I want.

My preference is without the front plate, but after receiving a warning to where I had to get a front plate on and inspected, I went with the SOS bracket.

Your berlina black NSX looks awesome the way it is though.

Thanks for sharing! :cool:
 
Nukem - yea they are 5zigen wheels. I liked the simple OEM look of them and the fact they were pretty lightweight for a good price.

And I will definitely get the SOS front plate holder I've order from them before but never saw that! (I'm gonna try leaving it hidden and if I get pulled over just be like oh sorry officer I forgot to bring it back down after I washed the car or something lol)
 
Nice looking car brotha! I am up in Newmarket myself and am slowly trying to seek out my 1st NSX. A great wealth of knowledge on this site. Thanks to all. Love to pick your brains more on where you picked this car up and some more details. It's so rare to see them for sale up here. Love to meet and see it in person one day this summer maybe?!

All the best

Marc
