The CD player is now standard BTW. Outstandingpicture work. Out of them all it seems only the steering wheel seems dated when compared with the Vette. The Vette wheel is ugly (the Z06 wheel is much better). Nice car overall, if it was just $50K I would have bought it a long time ago.

For $90,000 cars like used Ferrari F355, Porsche 993 Twin Turbo, or Corvette Z06, all look like wonderful options.
Actually for $90K you can get a low mileage 02' 911 TT (996) version. I would take that over the NSX. But in deference to the NSX the actual retail price for this car these days is closer to $75K as dealers will cut big discounts off the MSRP.

They're stupid because they purchase a nice looking, reliable performance car that YOU feel is outdated?
I'm not alone here, notice I did not start the thread.

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.
Ferrari still sells more cars every year than the NSX, despite being twice the price. I wonder why that is.

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.
My opinions are not baseless, that is usally your department. If you don't want to read them, use the ignore function -- or stop acting like a child when you don't agree with other people.

The CD player is now standard BTW
Yep, only took them until 2002 to make it that way.

The NSX is at this point a time machine. For only 90k you too can drive a car from the 1980's!

Steve C is one of the few sources of reality (when it comes to fanboi's) and hilarity on this board.

Go Steve C.

If you guys don't want to hear him bash the NSX, why keep baiting him? For 3 freaking weeks in a row we've had NSX arguments, all of which eventually get locked. You'd think it was a damn political convention in here. You guys dare him not to give his opinion, then jump on his case when he does. Who're the real idiots here? You guys are gluttons for punishment.

The cars come out of storage March 1st....so that should work out well. If you wanna take a spin, just let me know. Again, I am more than happy to share what the NSX has to offer with others.

As for the comparisson, I try and be as honest about it as I can. I love my cars, but I know there are things about them that could be improved upon. No car is perfect, but some are pretty close.

I'm not jumping on Stevec. I don't care about his opinions. He has his, I have mine. I still think the NSX looks great, in and out, regardless of its age. Just look at its profile in the link above. I've driven one and loved it. Have you? Let's be serious here? What 15 year-old car can look and drive like that? FIFTEEN year-old design! Still looks awesome! I'd buy one for $60K.

...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.

Okay, fair statement...and well made. I see your point, and you are correct. We should compare apples to apples.
