the car is BEAUTIFUL. wish the S looked like it.

however, i agree regarding the negatives. Tape players are awesome cuz you can easily adapt any mp3 player with the tape converter.

Very nice. Geez. How do people afford that so early in life?
Drug dealing.


Props on the NSX. Definitely gotta throw in a Comptech S/C.

Im a custom audio guy and im dying to drop a pioneer navi/av system in but im reluctant...sigh.
I'm jealous.

As for your aftermarket navi problem, here's your solution:

Oh, and is that a 2001 GPW/red with a new factory glass top?

Please let me know if you ever want to sell the car. I'm in SoCal too.

All i get is sun on my forehead. HA.

Visibility doesnt improve.
It doesnt feel topless since i still have to look through two windshields(the engine glass and the actual rear window)

Its absolutely pointless.

I always had the top down in the s2, ALWAYS. This car i dont even bother anymore. Sigh. Although it would probably be nice at night but i havent tried. Only other thing about the nsx is that when you open a window you have to open both or nothing at all. When only one window is open, since the area right behind you is glass the air comes in swirls around the back of the car then back to the front and then into your face really drying out your eyes with all the dust etc from the road. Lots of air conditioning for me.
I agree 100%. That's terrible.

You should give it to me .

That's one hell of an upgrade. Nice choice with the color and model year. When do you start modding?
