I hope to learn alot from this site.

Nice car, and welcome. An NSX will definitely be an excellent upgrade from your current RSX. I recommend keeping it as a daily, and purchasing the NSX for bragging rights. Good luck!

Is that on pump gas or race gas? Great numbers either way, very clean car.

Nice RSX -- I'm a big fan (see sig :biggrin: )

Sorry, on pump gas. Thanks. Car pulled really hard. I just need an LSD and neww tires now lol.

Thanks.

 

[shawn110975]

nice numbers, have you ever driven a stock 270-290hp NSX before?

its a whole new ball game. the NSX feels like no other car in its handling and the way it grumbles on WOT not alot of ponies but the whole car as a whole makes it unlike any car. I think the air intake right behind you makes the feeling so bad ass



hope you can get a great NSX read this article about used NSX's its a must read for all newbies

its called the NSX Buyers Guide

To all the old RSX owners, Stupid question but did you regret selling your RSX?
My fear is that I've put a lot of time and money into my car and I will not get what I've put into it.

Any regrets moving from your Type S to the NSX? How's is the maintenance comparison?

 

[aznblitzzzz]

Hey personally for me if your able to move from an rsx to an nsx there is nothing to regret ..the nsx is such an awesome car there shouldnt be any regret moving up to one ..but thats just me lol

So the RSX is now up for sale and the search for an NSX is about to begin. If I cant sell my car as a whole before winter, my plan is to part out the car and go back to stock.

RSX looks great! Love that bodystyle. Good luck with the sale and hope you find the right NSX soon.
