greg1647545532 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Yeah, it should have put out 500hp like all the other $70k cars in 1990... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greg1647545532 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 lol. I know in 2005, when they finally killed it, it was grossly underpowered even at a potentially underrated 290hp, but I think people forget that it was developed in the 80s and wasn't really all that expensive. Sure beat the crap out of a 1990 C4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zeitgeist57 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Sure beat the crap out of a 1990 C4. HEY!!!! Wait...you're right. EDIT: Holy cow that NSX at Denny Dotson is riDONKulous. Whomever paid for that redux lost a lot of money if they sell it for $25k. The yellow is too much, but I appreciate the attention to detail and how much all the bolt-on gee-gaws cost...

Sure beat the crap out of a 1990 C4. the NSX proved that a car didn t need a ton of HP to be fun to drive a stock one is a formidable beast on track 1350kg, mid engine, 290HP with VTAK (yo) aluminum frame, kickass suspension geometry that makes the Mclaren F1 drool (Gordon Murray admitted it...if you don t know who Gordon Murray is, don t even try to argue this point) the NSX gave supercars in its day a good run for their money even though it had 200 less HP for a good fraction of the price http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAwJsOECGBU http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-xl7H1AgoZ0Q/TVla1f6Wb4I/AAAAAAAACcA/HVzUOAKx6V8/s1600/Honda+NSX+white+track.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sol740 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I have a soft spot for these cars. When I bought my civic in 98 they had one on the showroom floor and I was all droolz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 drive one and you'll see why ^^ this. My friend from C&C last spring let me drive his NSX and was amazed at the handling. I would equate it to going bareback with a hot chick vs wearing a rubber glove. You have to experience it to appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Brian Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I would equate it to going bareback with a hot chick and catching a disease that costs $70,000 to cure vs wearing a rubber glove. fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossle Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Bunch of haters in here lol. I'm sure I will eat saying this, but I would rather have a NSX over an Elise. Now I am assuming that the modified MKIII MR2 I drove is anywhere in the neighborhood of a stock Elise, I know FOR SURE I would like the NSX better. It has close to the same torque curve as a 70's, 80's 911, just more modern. Don't get me wrong I would take the older 911 any day over the NSX, but the NSX is what I am shooting for "feel wise" with going V6 in the MR2.

Littleguy Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Now I am assuming that the modified MKIII MR2 I drove is anywhere in the neighborhood of a stock Elise If it was a stock motor, then no, not anywhere near it. There are quite a few running around with the same motor as the Elise and since it doesn't have the crappy Lotus ecu you can get a much better powerband.

SinisterSS Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 try working on an NSX while getting flat rate pay shit sucks!! that and all OEM parts have to be imported, main reason the NSX cost so much is due to the fact that the majority of it was hand built and not mass produced on an assembly line.
