Hi there,

Proud owner of a Sebring Silver '92 here. Honestly have no intentions of ever getting rid of the car!

I used to own a New 2000 NSX, Bl/Bl Great car lots of attention, not very fast but still wished I owned it today. Its worth more today then when I traded it towards my 02 Porsche turbo.

I own 03 Silverstone with NSX-R sway bars, chassis stiffners and ARK DT-S exhaust. I am replacing the exhaust with a GT One.

I bought the car because it handles well, fun to drive and cheap to own.

Not an owner but an absolute fan fo the cars. Biggest disappointment for me back in the 90's was getting a chance to drive one and realizing no matter what I do I cant fit and drive this thing properly. 6'6" 250lb will kill your spirit if you like sportscars as much as I do. Not many can fit my frame comfortably. RX7, Vipers even worse. Shocked the Z fit me lol.

Anyway my absolutely favorite 90's flip up version is the Zanardi Edition. The flush light later versions I like the NSX-R the best. See the pattern Simply beautiful cars. I do perfer the flipup light versions best though.

Definitely exotic materials for sure - these things are all great but also make it scary to fix if anything ever happened though.

This is my favorite pic of my car so far - still waiting on the passenger red Bride seat so this is what I have right now.

First statement couldn't be more wrong. Third sentence couldn't be more right.

gtr6speed...with all due respect, may I ask you 3 questions?

1) your age?
2) which NSX are you rfereing to, stock does not cover it?
3) how much time do u have in NSX's?

Take Care,
Brent

1) 30
2) 91-96 (never owned a 94 though)
3) 7 years of on and off owning an NSX...had a bone stock one, CTSC, targa and non-targa NSX in the past. Never had or driven 97 and newer.

Use to go on the canyon runs with NSXPrime guys.

Have you seen "walk hard"...and the line about "with all due respect"....LOL.

Have a great weekend.
