Those cars are gorgeous. Look like supercars.

haha, just noticed last night he put his facebook status to " is looking for someone with a stock Z06...wanna race?

Being the good friend that I am, I kindly informed him that a stock Z06 will do high 11's whereas his car could do low 13's, and that I would race him though lol....that is until he kindly informed me that his NSX has a supercharger and 4.55 ring n pinion

WRONG! All post 97 have 292 hp and 224 lb·ft. If it actually had that much torque that would be awesome. BTW, only 50 were ever sold to the general public.

That is too bad. A SC will only hurt the value of such a rare collectible.

I love nsx. They are one of the greatest ever becuz they changed the way the world build supercars. in 1990 when it first came out it could be call the bench mark for supercar. McLaren F1 Designer loved it so much he set out to build a car that could beat n smash the nsx. The NSX was low on power but it was only 30 hp short from its rivals in 1990. It still manage to tie if not beat the ferrari, porsche at the time. However, since then everyone learn their lesson n moved on. NSX however stay still... except in 2002 a new type r push forward its potential but still it was too late. By 2002 the Type R was outdated and powerless but nonetheless put up a fight compare to modern supercar.

NSX was good when it came out and competitive
NSX is still good now, just in a different way.

I Love nsx and when ppl say how their new supercar can walk a nsx its a joke ot me. The modern supercars should, its been almost 20 years and surely technology have moved on. The fact that nsx stay competitive with a little mod here n there show how ahead it was. No one car can stay on top forever. but being ahead of the competition for so long is surely something to be proud of.
