NSX Convertible

[Made in the USA]

This is from 'Driven to Perform 2006' not sure where the show was held. I saw these pictures on another forum, thought I share in the horror.

The license plate should say 'YTHINK'

Looks like a Newport Conversion, with a 2002 update bumper.

Looks great to me.....red rules!

Leaving aside the wisdom (or lack of) turning an NSX into a ragtop, nothing looks more retarded than a convertible with the top down and the windows up. That is right up there with driving down the highway with your blinker flashing.

Yeah, why would you do that? Classic case of too much money, not enough taste.

What an idoit. Geesh, what could he be thinking?

What an idoit. Geesh, what could he be thinking?

It is ugly, but I like the NAV system integrated in the center console, rather than a bulky Moon-pod on your dashboard. Is this discussed somewhere else on Prime?

I think i'm gonna be sick.....

It's a NA1 that someone converted. I can only hope that it was a total loss before and this was the owner's way of saving it from the heap.

 

[splitz]

HA! All that work and it is missing the tow hook cover!

 

[Shaun Ray]

Hate it!

disgusting just plain disgusting...:frown: :frown: :frown: :frown:

I dont think it looks that bad. I've seen much worse abortions posted here than that. just one mans opinion

 

[LeftLane]

I think it actually looks pretty sweet. I would never do that to my own car, but it makes me wish that there was a 'vert NSX from the factory.

 

[nsx2tall]

Tough crowd... I can think of better things to do with the money, but that's a pretty damn unique car. Maybe the girls would swoon?

 

[Shumdit]

Maybe they would swoon-I know I felt light-headed when I saw it.

 

[nsx2tall]

Is that a shift knob or a microphone?

 

[BD]

I kinda dig it. After owning an S2k before my NSX T, I noticed the high turbulence with the T off and windows down. If this car is built on a T chassis, no structural integrity is lost... So there is not compromise in performance… if anything, less drag without the rear hatch and partition glass.

 

[Shumdit]

I would bet it was a 93-94 coupe. It's unlikely someone took one of the more expensive 95-96 T's to make this conversion.

 

[KGP]

Is that a shift knob or a microphone?

It's a shift knob with either a weapons button on top, or a mohawk.

 

[nsxrm]

that X looks sweet..............how bout that yellow one beside it:wink:

 

[amgnsx]

i guess color makes a difference. :biggrin:

 

[heySkippy]

i guess color makes a difference.

Ze goggles, they do nothing!

 

[Synthesis]

i guess if you had a nice roof compartment cover, it would look ok (maybe?), but other than that it looks almost as bad as a 300zx convertible (whoever decided to do that should be shot)

i like the "nos injected" sticker on that nsx with the color changing paint. tops off the shittiness effect.

I like the idea of a convertible NSX and would buy one if it was made by Acura/Honda but not a aftermarket conversion. If it isn't done by the factory I just would not want it but, both of these convey how sweet one could look.

Personally I don't care for the chameleon color on a car. That color looks good as a accent or on a something small like a helmet IMO.

I've seen nasty Frankenstein cars on Prime that people gush over. Some with garish, fish faced bumpers and extreme wide body design/styles.
Cars that look like they were designed for the Power Rangers or some other cartoon and would have enthralled me when I was 12 or younger.
Why all the neg comments on this is hard to understand.
