[QUOTE=Subaru2000,Feb 13 2009, 10:51 AM] I'm not having that

Are you implying, if you think the interior is dated (and exterior come to mention it) that you're a fashion victim, what rubbish

NSX is a great concept, but things have moved on visually and it's possible to have something which is modern, functionally and just as appealing from current century.

Chill.

He's not.

What he's saying is that anyone who dismisses the car out of hand because the look if the interior is closer to a Bradford taxi than a Docklands penthouse has completely missed the point.
Perhaps I should have put a few smileys on my post, reading back it, did come across as a bit angry.

I liked the use of the youth parlance btw, chill lol

I watch the NSXs for sale on Pistonheads, and most are on there for a very very long time.
Most good NSX's don't hang around.

In fact, most good ones don't even get advertised for sale when they are passed on.

vapidity?

Had to look that one up

I see the NSX as 80's through and through, far from timeless

but each to there own

Party on !

the NSX interior looks its age, but I can't see that there's anything really wrong with it

what do people expect? it is not a modern car

I'd still take the interior over that of a same date 911 - now that's what I call badly dated

in fact it was rubbish when new!

That's the sad fact.

Once the populus find something within their means.... so much time has passed that they think a disappointing "Oh..."

The beauty of many such things is more than skin deep.

The NSX is a car of it's time - and it is fitting that the dash & interior reflect that.
