I saw that as well Ryan. I commented on it a bit and he said he just does not drive it, that has never changed. He is always too worried about it when he does drive it so it sounds like a good idea to sell it and move on. Interesting to see how much it goes for considering the engine mods which some shy away from.
Hey Brian - can you PM me your address? I’ll drop off the parts some time in the near future
Hey folks! Just wanted to reach out and let everyone know I have sold Tweety. I sold her to a great guy in Las Vegas. Got $115K, which I think was a fair deal all the way around. The car will be picked up mid-week next week. I have to say I have come close to choking up knowing she is sold. I owned her for 24 years and still love her. It is true I don’t drive her much and worried and obsessed way too much. I knew it was time to let someone else enjoy her. Maybe I will get back in at some point, but for the time being, I will be on the sidelines. I wish everyone here good health, safe driving and much happiness. Take care!
Duffer!
When Neal shot us a link to Tweety's auction, I gave the photos a look and it was a trip in the wayback machine.
I'm confident whoever is the new owner of this immaculate car will continue to be a steward on its behalf.
Cheers,
Brian & Judi

I can't imagine having to see it go! Glad its going to a good climate and hopefully the new owner fully appreciates just how much you cared for it all these years and continues with that. Hope all is well!
Hey Ryan - I am so glad that you and much of the local MI NSX fans are still at it 11+ years after we moved to Charlotte. We love the Carolinas. Down here, imports are very mainstream. However, the NSX community is very weak compared to Michigan. I would not have predicted that when we moved here.
As far as I am concerned, the car should be picked up in a couple of days and I have been very emotional about things. I guess when you own a car for 24 years and modify exactly how you want it and obsess about its upkeep and all, you grow emotionally attached. I am going to try to stay on the sidelines for a few years and decide if, and what, car I would like to purchase. Maybe a NC1 NSX - perhaps a Type S. We shall see. The new owner is a fabulous guy out of Las Vegas. He is pretty particular about keeping his cars in pristine shape and has owned many European brands previously. He told me he has never owned a Japanese car, nor even been in a NSX before. I think he is in for a pleasant surprise. He should be introducing himself on Prime to the local LV owners once he has Tweety. Take care and keep loving your NSX. They are truly special.

Precision motorsports in Farmington hills right down grand river from the old Acura dealer is where we take the NSX now. They installed KW coilovers and the alignment/service was perfect. I have taken my Supra to them for m at mods and they are the best around. They special in euro cars but literally can work on anything.

Just wanted to post a few pictures for the Prime faithful. Our local NSX enthusiast members braved the cold weather and came out in force to showcase their beautiful Acuras at our local Acura/Honda enthusiast get-together last Saturday. The NSXs were definitely the highlight of the show for most of our attendees.
A very special thanks to Neal, Jeff, Brian, Judy, Rob, and anyone else I may have missed for making the show incredibly successful. I'm definitely looking forward to a few more get-togethers and enthusiastic drives over the coming months with you all.
Cheers,

Hey Brent,
Judi and I were impressed with the turnout for your show, and it was great meeting a whole bunch of younger enthusiasts whose circles usually don't overlap ours.
It was awesome seeing Kris bring his S800, that was the 1st time nearly everyone had seen one in person it seems.
We really wanted to bring the Acty microvan which is still not ready for prime time......but the purple boostmonster got a lot of love in its place!

Last minute decision, but I'm going to make a quick run over to the Northville cars and coffee off Beck Rd. tomorrow morning if anybody is up for a little early-morning fiesta....
15701 Technology Dr., Northville....9AM-12PM, sounds like it may be a little chaotic getting in and parked, so I plan on being there by 8:30 for any bored early birds. Would love to see another NSX in the mix!

I have a conflicting event tomorrow, but Judi might be able to join you there.
Because of sooo many cars trying to get into the Industrial Park it was nightmarish getting into the last one from 5 Mile Road, so my suggestion would be to take Beck Northbound past 5 Mile then turn Right onto Industrial Drive to get to the C&C.
