NX's NSX
I've not been around much, as I have a new toy to play with.
It's a really very straight 3.2 coupe, bought via private sale from a really decent chap and a total Hondamentalist. It's had a few minor issues sorted in order to bring it up to a very high standard.
It's had a bit of a steam and a scrub and a few zits attended to now, so I thought a few crappy phone pics would utterly fail to do it justice:
I made some bolts for the FRED on the throttle body, painted the wipers and did a few such tiny TLC thingies, including a little sewing.
It really attracts attention and many neighbours have asked about it. I was also given a discount on the MTF merely because I turned up in an NSX. Which is quite cool.
So I've not done much work this week, been late for dinner most nights and having a whale of a time.
Might even try driving it.

Bloody Gorgeous Nick 
I saw one on 'the bay' the other day with no reserve (Auto 3.0l) with a price of just under 6k on it and 14 bids; it only had 47k miles as well, same colour as yours. I was quite tempted but something told me that at 6k it must be a wrong-en.
[EDIT] Actually scratch that I was wrong and getting mixed up; it has 108k miles on it

Yes if there was one person on this forum who should own an NSX I have always thought you should Nick, well done!
It could just be the phone pics, but the paint work on the car looks like its beginning to oxidise, a common occurance with red cars, they can begin to take on a pinkish hue. If it is oxidising then no amount of 'arm' polishing will bring back the beautiful red ... however someone close by with a polisher should be able to bring that back to its full glory ... unless you have such a device handy ... and unless it is the phone pics afterall.
Either way, gorgeous car .... heh heh i expect it will be another week before you read this .. as you will no doubt be out and about giving it beans!
Very cool car Nick!
