Default Spoon NSX-R, some GT bodywork

At first, I nearly had a heart attack and thought this was the real deal. Had those been the original bodyparts, I would be very very sad. It looks like they put replicas on and put the company colors on those. Also note ITB's instead of boost . This car doesn't have the enlarged side intakes, so it's probably not the boosted one they had over in US. Side by side comparison between the white boosted NSX-R GT and this yellow/blue NA machine will be interesting. 2 potential GT-R slayers? The NA one would fare better on slower twistier tracks, but once Spoon realizes they can turn up the boost...

Why did you post NSX-R GT (Replica)? I don't see anywhere in the article Spoon claimed it to be one of five NSX-R GTs. The turbo NSX-R GT Spoon brought here to the states is still here in Northern CA.

I didn't know the one they had was still in norcal. I thought the only difference to the NSX-R GT was the bodykit and non-functional scoop. So, yeah, those are replica bodyparts. Besides, I'm also wondering which is this Acura dealer, I'm Norcal/Bay Area and should go and take a look at it. Funny as I would have thought that it would be at Opak Racing, which I'm like 5 minutes away from. Could you give a link to the other thread?

For a second there I thought that was at the South Coast Acura dealership. I was about to leave to see for myself. Damn!
