Yeah, its too bad. They did sell about 6000 of them the first year, and that would be like selling 3x the number of s2000s. They got the initial buzz of interest, but IMO folks that would buy a HMC auto would rather have 3 s2000s at 240 HP than 1 NSX @256 hp, just to compare one point. Wonder what price they'd have to seel them for to substantially increase sales of the NSX?

It would either have to be a lower price...or more car...You have to ask yourself... am I getting 2/3rd's more "car" with the NSX at around 90k...than I am with a 33k 'S'? Just a thought.

I like the NSX a *lot* And it is such an understated car that you have to be next to one for it to have any magic effect on you. A ferrari only needs the name mentioned for that....... But it would have to be more car. I'm talking subtstantial power increase, and more exotica, like a 7 speed smg, big fat tires, shit like that

A buddy of mine has a '94 NSX...but he's a fag about it and won't drive it...afraid of racking up the miles. So he talks about it alot, and not much else. But it is a bitchen car and I agree about "more exotica" ...before I'd spend the dough for one

(edit)asifIhadthedough....forone...
