[TURBO2GO]

The first NSX I ever really fell "in love" with was NSXbox's.

She will always have a special place in my heart... :biggrin:

 

[MadtownNSX]

Fellow Wisconsin NSX gets my vote.

 

[eyecandy]

Theyre both bad ass, but Vrooms has more custom / one off work to it, so he gets my vote

 

[TURBO2GO]

Ttt

 

[Senninha]

I voted Vroom because of the R&D, attention to detail, hand crafted individuality and in the hope he might make one more set of mirrors

 

[NSXBOX]

Just saw this thread!
What an honour to be in the running guys and against a legend in Jeff/Vroom.
I too have ordered his mirrors!
So no shame in getting this far.
I hope to have NSXBOX 2.0 rebuild in 2013, it needs a refresh its 2005 when I built the car.
Thanks for those that have voted and commented. And good luck to Vroom, he is a deserving winner.

Nico, I think your car is just as deserving if not more so. In fact, I think you were the inspiration for many (including myself) to aggressively modify an NSX. I spend many hours looking at your car in awe of the "perfect mix" of modifications. I'm sure a lot of the members here can attest to that also.

Yes I can attest to that. If there was a hall of fame NSXbox's would be in it.

 

[Teej]

They are both jawdropping bada$$. I do think the NSX-R hood though looks best when paired with bubble lights, not pop ups... but Vroom's hood isnt as good looking as the NSXR hood... this is a veryyy tough final. They both are deserving without a doubt.

 

[TURBO2GO]

I think Vrooom's hood matches his car well. He has too many scoops and one-off things to put a standard NSX-R hood on there. He has a scoop on the roof!!!

The double scoops in the hood match the double openings in the nose lower down. I prefer the R hood on a car like mine, but not on his.

Opinions.... Everyone's got one, right? LOL...

I originally wanted to use a type R hood but I knew I wanted to have a functional roof scoop. The only way to keep the radiator hot air from going in the intake was to use the Route KS one (or one like it). I do agree though, I think there are so many options. Everyone seems to have their own taste. Nothing wrong with that.

 

[DRIFTER]

I cant decide,

NSXBOX car is like a classic to me. I always felt it was the most tastefully done widebody. I like the way he kept the lines of the car. I have always admired that car as one of my favorites.

Vrooom on the other hand is a true craftsman. He produced a truly unique car with his own style. You can see the attention to detail on everything he touched. Both are beautiful works of art in my book

 

[MikeC_587]

IMHO both NSXBOX and VRoooM are WINNERS in their own right, for the reasons DRIFTER stated above!!!

[NSXBOX]

Guys,
Seriously this is why I love the NSX, its owners and this forum. Thanks for the compliments and to read this thread is why I will always own an NSX forever.
I have neglected it till beginning this year. I had a Gallardo and now a LP640 but the NSX is such an awesome car to drive without the hassles and worry and wont hurt the wallet.

Again thanks for the kind words and look forward to finishing off the car like I wanted to.

Nico

 

[IsR]

Both beautiful cars! Decision decision!

 

[DoubleZeroRS]

For the longest time ever I've had (and still do) a poster of a red widebody NSX in my room....and I've just now found it belongs to prime member NSXBOX! Beautiful car!

VRoooM's car is equally beatiful, such a hard decision!

 

[armyLT]

Ditto, I have had the poster of NSXBOX's in my garage forever and before that it was next to my pin-ups in Afghanistan! So great to know it's a Primer's! Beautiful car and well done throughout.

 

[DRIFTER]

Where did you guys get the posters? I would love to have one for my shop.

 

[NSXBOX]

armyLT- Wow thats amazing! What an honour my friend. Those posters were in 2005-2006. We sold posters to all over the world. My friend who photographed the car is now world famous and does shoots for factory brochures.

Again thank you. I'm trying to get the car ready for NSXOZ in 2013 when Mr Uehara will be joinging us. VroooM's mirrors are nearly ready.

I agree with this. NSXBOX was the first wide body I fell in love with, Vrooms has the best interior on an NSX, as well as many of the other custom mods. I really can't decide on this.
