One of my old buddies (use to be a member here a while ago) "soflansx" or something like that use to have a pretty loud one...I never raced him, but when we rode out to the race spots back in the day, he was just roaring on the highway next to me in his chromed out NSX, shit was tight. NSX's are tight.
cool! How did you fair? What year was it?

early '90's nsx = na1....not much (if any) quicker than an s2000 stock for stock

good run, most nsx's i see on the highway are like most vettes: 55mph in the right lane. fail.

everytime nsx pops up on any forum it automatically goes into price vs performance ratio

for me if i want MR bliss i'd get an mkII mr2 turbo and mod the living piss out of it. under $25k i'd have more than enough power i need (i.e. 500rwhp+) and all the suspension goodies to make it an absolute monster around the track. granted the shorter wheel base will make it a handful with that much power...but that's part of the fun

NSX is a hot car. I'd trade my "S" for one.

Uh....The earlier models are pretty much equivalent to our cars. The 290 hp model...none of us will touch...I have seen around 12.8-12.9 out of those with a good driver. To drive the NSX right is just as hard to nail down the s2k. I believe only a modded/tuned NA s2k will be even if not barely pull on the 290rwp model. Don't underestimate the newer model...lol...really. NSX has World Class handling. F1 DNA baby!

Besides, the NSX is 10x sexier than any other car out there, regardless of power.

In my opinion, the NSX makes the corvette look like junk...Not to mention that the corvette bit off the aluminum chassis from the NSX....lol

I think someone said it was one of the slower NA1's or whatever there called. Not too sure. Here's the run.
