To get back to everyone on the most asked question, "why did you sell the NSX?"

I know most of you will disagree BUT...

Even though I got a pretty good lease deal, (3 yrs, 10k/year, $1800 total drive off, $862/month including tax) (I gotta put my flame suit on) I didn't feel like the car fit all my expectations. I totally agree that it was VERY original, Honda's flagship, awesome sports car heritage, nice power, VERY well balanced, exotic beauty, addictive engine sound especially in VTEC...

Even though it was such an awesome car, a few things bothered me:

1. Pretty much 95% of the car was the same as the 1991 version... noticeable differences were:

Front/Rear bumpers, overall exterior cosmetics, wheels, headlights, taillights, etc... and the interior looked real nice, but same thing, radio was ancient, I am not an amber lighting lover, and a few other things...

2. The car sat in my garage, as I was driving my daily driver a lot. It sucked paying over $1k a month including insurance and barely driving it as much as I should of.. Car had only 8k miles on it when I sold it after 1.5 years.

Overall, I know this may be hard for some to believe but the S2k feels LOT more fun to drive with a way better gearbox...

Any comments?!

I really like the NSX, it looks really clean, and I was wondering why you sold it also, but...


I won't judge.

Hell if you like what you got now, more power to you.
