Awesome car, wouldn't work for me though. My feet are too big. I've driven my friends and the pedals are just to close together. You will definitely get more looks and chicks with that car. Just be aware that the maintainence will be extrememly high on a NSX, correct me if I'm wrong but my friend had to have his whole tranny replaced at 60k miles and said with parts & labor it came out close to $12K! Is that true?!?!?!?

I was going to buy an NSX but opted for the s2000. I wanted the convertable for the summer. Congrats on your purchase. That is a fine car that will treat you well. Definitely check out Doug's website at http://www.nsxfiles.com its a hoot. NSX's are the bomb. Until Ferrari means reliablity, the only other car I want is an NSX.

PhatHK. 12k sounds about right. Probably was a snap ring failure that Honda might have replaced or discounted though. Unless you blow a drivetrain component or crash the car, the upkeep should be cheaper than most luxury cars.

Thanks. It's a 94 with 43k on it. Got it for 37k. Hey, don't diss my mazda...it's my baby(for the last 3 years!) and it'll give s2k some fight As for the maintenance, it's expensive, but tranny job(even with NSXR rebuild)costs about 4-5000 bucks at the most.
