After 2 years she is finally home

Bought my college dream car 2 years ago Since then I have only driven her 300 miles and straight to the shop she went for a complete restoration. After 2 long years now she is now home. Now is the start of putting the rest of the rare goodies I have collected for her over the years Will post more pics soon

complete 2.5 liter upgrade
eissenman exhaust
complete repaint
complete euro interior
coilovers
complete mcintosh system
custom acs wheels 18x8/18x9
and lots more

This is just the start. She has more wheels than any of my cars . All collected while waiting.

old school

bbs rs 17x8.5/9.5
alpina 17x8.5/9.5
act 17x8.5/9.5

also acs side mirrors (very rare)


Nothing feels better than having an old new car

Merry Christmas to all

congrats bud! It must feel great getting your dream car! That two year wait must have been brutal on you!

My dream car since I was in high school was always an NSX. My wife knows that I can have a Billion in the bank, and be able to buy anything I want, but the NSX will STILL be my dream car.

A buddy of mine has a grey one (dont know what the official colour is), sweet cars!

Very nice car. My brother has one with 60k original miles. Bought it couple of years back for $16k and now he's getting offers near $30k. No joke! Love to own one someday. Did you use the original paint for the repaint?
