I've just got to believe that as a child, Steve must have walked in on his mother having sex with an NSX.

It's so nice to know that his total lack of objectivity is only outdone by his being totally devoid of tact and consideration for the opinions and choices of others. People are "morons" because they don't share your taste in cars? They're stupid because they purchase a nice looking, reliable performance car that YOU feel is outdated? Can't judge reliability because there aren't enough of them? That's too bad. Using your logic I guess we can't judge the reliability of any Ferrari ever made. They don't sell countless thousands of them, so the owners must be morons. Thanks for sharing. All of those who claim to have reliability problems with Italian cars have obviously not shared in your wisdom. Wait until we all find out we are all stupid morons.

Please share more baseless, obviously biased crap with us. Or wait, you could open your articulate, narrow mind a little, and realize that all of us don't share your opinions and values as far as a car is concerned. You never know what you may be missing. I'm sure you think you do, but you think you know a lot of things that you obviously don't.

I know the car design is old so I won't bag on it much, but which cars in the 20's had HUD's?

The NSX doesn't look bad (interior) until you remember they want 90k for it....
Actually, the interior design doesn't look old to me, even though it came out in '90. In addition, the gear box is extremely short and crisp, which was a revelation in early '90's. Has anyone seen interiors of 911's in the early '90's? Both the steering wheel and interior design looks like the '70's. How about putting up some cars' interiors from the early '90's against the NSX's? Yes, it's not the early '90's anymore, but still, I think the NSX looks great, both in and out.

One more thing, I still think the NSX's interior looks much better than many cars today, including the C6, etc. Its center console runs a little flat down, ala the Porsche GT. So I think the NSX was TRULY many many years ahead of its time. Just compare it to cars of its time.

I don't think you're the only one to think so.

^^ Great interior comparison.

btw, here is an exterior comparo.

You can complain about its low HP, however, the car still looks way better IMHO than a vette, and much, much better than the turtle.

Haha! Only the NSX still has a cassette deck these days, which suggests it didn't change much from '90, but still looks very nice, even compared to today's standards.

btw, I agree that Acura/Honda needs to stop selling it in U.S/Europe. Retool, build a new NSX and then start selling it. The car is way overpriced new when compared to the competition. Think about it, right now you can buy a c6 z51 for $48k or a new NSX for $90k. This fall you can buy a z06 for $65k, or a new NSX for $90k. I'm sorry, but nobody in their right mind would pick an NSX over those two choices.

Mitch, you mentioned used 911tt, 355. I don't feel that is a fair comparison. If you open that can, then I can get a mint 92-93 NSX for low 30's. Mod it for $10k and it will out perform a 355. IMHO it is easier to compare stock to stock, new to new.
