Official Prime "Where are they now" thread....

He never drank alone in the VIP room..:biggrin:
 
I'm sure we did! Did you make the drive from Michigan for NSXPO? I remember a blue NSX from MI at NSXPO 2010. My car is still the same since then. It's owner, on the other hand, just a bit older. :p
Jeepers I know what you mean there. "My car is still the same since then. It's owner, on the other hand, just a bit older."

Nope, did not do that drive to 2010 NSXPO L V. Altho I have driven a nice Volvo back here from L V a few years ago for a friend who paid expenses.

That BLUE I believe was Tim and Liz's ( @jorligan ). That transport also brought from MI another NSX or two. And their R8 V-12 white w/black int 6 spd. That was an epic NSXPO - drive through Nat'l Park (was it Valley of Fire?) and up to Mt. Charleston. SouthPoint Casino Hotel was nice. We had a clunky Jeep SUV rental and had to whip it up good to about 10 mpg to keep up........

Best Regards Randy
 
Has it really been about 6 years since I have posted anything ?? Wow, time surely flies !!
This thread kinda stirred up some old feelings and nostalgia and made it decide to sign in again and become a little more active.
After we adopted our son obviously things in our lives and priorities shifted to raising him and doing all the stuff that comes along with it.
I'm without an NSX at the moment but am getting the itch to get another one since my son left home after school and joined the Army.
Kinda funny that after all these years of not having one I have never really wanted any car other than another NSX. They are just a timeless design and will always pull at my heartstrings.
Anyways, I'm gonna get back to posting a bit more often and (gonna get to 10K) and find the 'right one' to get back into the fold on ownership.
 
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 again. Would love to be back in an NSX but not at these prices. Sat on a waitlist for a year for an MSRP C8 instead. Did the black top as an homage to the NSX. Just got back from Ron Fellows Spring Mountain C8 Performance driving school, so time to sign the C8 up for some HPDEs.

I hate the Corvette stereotype, so I debadged it (even had custom center caps made with the logo from the German prog metal band Vanden Plas, not pictured). Around here, there are still quite a lot of people that don't know what it is. This is my first American car since 1987 (Dodge Daytona Shelby Z)

I'm jealous. My wife has told me that I can either get one of those or another NSX. Honestly, I'm torn. GREAT looking car !!
 
Get the NSX...you'll be happier :)
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 it's flappy paddle but I've gotten used to it. Picked up a 6mt Miata for track use, c8 consumable costs are $$$

Run the SSSSSSSS at the track- that's what it's for! I'd relegate the Bee to club drives. She deserves some nice mountain roads in her old age. :)
