Acura NSX

Hey transio...a bit harsh speaking of the NSX in such a fashion, as an owner obviously my opinion is quite different....

Hey etlsport...this will warm your heart ..prior to me jumping into the NSX I owned 2 SVX, an excellent car. Of course the NSX is greater [in my opinion] than the SVX, but then again 2nd hand here in Australia SVX are about 25% of the price of a good NSX. I have very warm memories of the SVX...another "X" car...

Don't get me wrong, I think the NSX is an awesome car! I thought of getting one myself at one time. But let's not make it what it's not, ok? It's not groundbreaking in any way. It's not even class-leading. It's a 350 hp, v6 powered, mid-engined, cushy, nice-looking, mild-mannered, high-end sports car. It's not a supercar. It's not an innovator. It's not a breakthrough. It's on par with a 911 GT3, Jag XKR, Aston Martin AMV8 or DB9, Lotus Esprit, Viper GTS, Corvette Z06, and a host of other high-end sports cars. The only distinguishing feature is that it's a unique offering from Japan. It's not a Ferrari 360CS, or a Lamborghini Gallardo, or even a Ford GT. Even a $65k C6 Z06 will tear it apart on the track.

That's not harsh... that's reality. :shrug:
