The Raven Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 So what you're saying is they're over priced due to a lack of hp? As you said, if you don't 'get it' you'll likely need to drive one to understand (that said, in order for me to get one it would need to be an nsx-r) What im saying is unless they handle out of this world IE Lotus well, I dont see what else they have going for them. IE I think they are over priced for the following They are old now They cost loads to look after. They are not overly quick Looks wise id rather have a supra. The front is sex on wheels the back is awful. The point i was making was that if they had 400BHP i would better understand the "thing" about them.

Guest blueangel Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 bluluck on here sold an r reg gold 3.2nsx for about 15,000 admittedly it was an accident repair but it was real nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I'd definately buy a manual NSX if you could get one for under 10 grand. but then so would 10000 other people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 They are not overly quick after going out in a 360 which I didnt expect to be fast I really fancy going out in an NSX as I bet it's much quicker than everyone thinks I now wouldnt be suprised if they were bpu quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good driver in a car like that makes a lot difference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I bet they can be driven very quick, in the right hands. A good driver in a car like that makes a lot difference Exactly. Like any vtec it needs to be really worked to get the best out of it (those used to turbos would likely hate it IMO). For example, to get the best out if my dc2 it has to kept on the boil at 6k+ rpm. At first it felt like borderline abuse but now I love it ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_TT Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I'd love a NSX type R. Ive been out in 1 nsx and i loved every minuite of it. Just something about it that felt great. I'd buy one in an instant if i had the cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyT Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 That man should not be allowed near a car!! I prefer this sound: That looked shockingly quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imi Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Exactly. Like any vtec it needs to be really worked to get the best out of it (those used to turbos would likely hate it IMO). For example, to get the best out if my dc2 it has to kept on the boil at 6k+ rpm. At first it felt like borderline abuse but now I love it ) Agree, when driving in Vtec it is a lovely experience, amazing throttle response, nice linear power delivery....I do miss my 2.2vti too sometimes. however, daily day to day road driving, non-VTEC is BORING and so would the NSX be in my opinion (frustrating as vtec in 3rd is over 70mph - LOL). I would still love to own one for the novelty factor...Ayrton Senna and all that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 my mate had an nsx,it was awsome around corners and had fantastic braking,but not as quick as my bpu supra in a straight line in my opinion.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercharged my mate had an nsx,it was awsome around corners and had fantastic braking,but not as quick as my bpu supra in a straight line in my opinion.:) straight line speed is the easy bit to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
